The first of three planned episodes, called Hunted, for Assassin’s Creed Odyssey's Legacy of the First Blade expansion is set to arrive next week. The new story, which will take place across the game's huge Greek landscape will focus on Darius, the first to wield the Assassin’s Hidden Blade.

As the story of Hunted unfolds, players will discover whether Darius is friend or foe, while meeting new characters, engaging in gripping naval combat, fighting new and powerful enemies, and uncovering revelations about the Assassin’s Creed universe. Legacy of the First Blade continues to bring players’ choice to the forefront through the relationships they build with colourful characters and the decisions they make along the way. In Legacy of the First Blade, players can also customize new equipment and master new special abilities as they fight their way across Greece, engaging in visceral battles on land and on sea to continue their Odyssey and become a true hero of legend.

The remaining two episodes are due to release early next year alongside Assassin’s Creed III Remastered and Assassin’s Creed Liberation Remastered - which will both come as part of the Season Pass (available for $59.95 AUD).
