Assassin’s Creed: Origins (opens in new tab) finally went official at Microsoft’s E3 2017 press conference (opens in new tab) after possibly the leakiest development of all time. The game debuted with a trailer introducing the Egyptian setting and progress, then moved into some stealth-assassination gameplay, and it made a pretty good impression overall. For instance, some IRL Egyptians sound pretty excited to have a playable assassin of their own.
