Assassin’s Creed Odyssey Legacy of the First Blade Episode 1 Now Available

Today, Ubisoft announced that the first episode, Hunted, in the new post-launch story arc for Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, Legacy of the First Blade, is now available.

Hunted introduces new elements and features to Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, beginning a new story where our hero encounters Darius, the first user of the Assassin’s Hidden Blade. A legend from Assassin’s Creed lore whose tomb appeared in Assassin’s Creed II, players will find out if Darius is friend or foe and learn about a new enemy, the Order of the Ancients.

Each of the three episodes of Legacy of the First Blade will feature a new ability linked to each branch of the skill tree, Hunter, Warrior and Assassin. In Hunted, players will discover Death Veil, a new Assassin Ability where bodies of assassinated enemies will immediately disappear, making this new ability perfect for stealth. In addition, new legendary gear and weapons will be available.

To access Hunted players must have completed the Naxos questline in Episode 7 of the main story of the game and reached character level 28 or above.
