E3 2018: Assassin's Creed Odyssey - 7 Ways It Changes The Franchise Forever
2. Greater Customisation Than Ever Before
Ubisoft
Assassin's Creed has never had a shortage of outfits in recent years, but Odyssey is still set to bring the greatest amount of customisation the series has seen thus far.
Players can expect to be able to customise their entire wardrobe top to bottom, and with the series keeping in with the theme of its RPG style, each item will have its own value and bonuses.
From the beginning, it looks as though both Kassandra and Alexios will be donning some rather Spartan-looking outfits. This makes sense in light of the Leonidas connection, but with other factions set to influence the game as well, it's likely that Athenian armour and more will be usable at some stage too.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
