Interview with Ashraf Ismail, Ubisoft Game Director

Are you ready for another Assassin’s Creed adventure? I know I am. I mostly play these to see the world at the time presented. Scouring all over the buildings while needlessly combating tons of guards with a bunch of random gadgets and also deviously taking them ALL down with the hidden blade…SO MUCH FUN! Assassin’s Creed usually recreates the world in the time frame they choose very well. The story, depending on each entry, can be a big part too. At 3000 years old, Memphis, Egypt is true ancient Egypt and ‘Assassin’s Creed: Origins’ is one heck of a sandbox to play in. I just love the setting for this game, and after our hands on at PAX WEST 2017, it seems like Ubisoft has changed the formula enough to give it a breath of fresh air. We got the chance to speak with Ashraf Ismail, who is the Game Director of ‘Assassin’s Creed: Origins’…He breaks down how to make an authentic AC game, the depth of the combat system and the birth of the Brotherhood. ‘Assassin’s Creed: Origins’ drops on October, 27th 2017. Get it on Xbox One X, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PS4 Pro & PC.
