Here’s a look at the full world map of ‘Assassin’s Creed Odyssey’

There’s a whole lot of exploring you can do in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, if the world map is any indication. According to Powerpyx, the full world map of the upcoming Ubisoft game is said to cover 130km², which is 62 percent bigger than Assassin’s Creed Origins map was. The latter has bigger land mass but this new game makes up for that with all the water between the many islands you can explore. If seafaring isn’t your thing, there’s still mainland Greece and Macedonia to explore. The game is being developed for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. It’s set to come out on October 5.

The site claimed the game will be set in ancient Greece.
