nearly a year later and i still watch this because of how well done it is.

The fact that they chose Leonard Cohen's last and darkest song, alone gives me goosebumps. Bravo to the design team!

this dark voice was everything, set the mood, set the tone.

In case you history buffs wanted to know the monument names, here you go 00:03 Bent Pyramid of Dashur, first "pyramid" built c. 2,600 BC. The initial incline was too steep so they had to change the angle halfway through construction. Pharaoh Dashur was alive when the construction was completed, so he had the Red Pyramid built, which was a smaller version of the Great Pyramids we know today. 00:11 (Columns at bottom right) Hypostyle Hall built in the 13th century BC. This building was made completely of large columns holding up slabs. The entire complex was dark with the exception of the center aisle. It represented reeds in a marsh from the earlier days of the Kingdom. 00:11 (large temple) Temple of the god Amun-Re built from 1579-1075 BC. This temple was off limits to everyone but the Pharaoh and the priests who lived there, giving it a very mysterious aura to everyone else. 00:31 While not a monument, it is an interesting fact and I'm happy to see that they added this extra detail. The masked man has a crown with a scarab beetle on it. The god Ra was known to roll the sun through the sky, while transforming souls. The scarab represented Ra in the sense that it rolled around a ball of dung, and its larvae would hatch from within it, signifying a cycle of life. Because of their connection to Ra, they are often portrayed as carrying the sun, which was usually represented by a red gem or stone. 01:10 The Great Pyramid of Khufu built in 2528 BC. This was the second (after the Red Pyramid) and largest pyramid to built. Unlike it is seen today, the Great pyramids would have been coated with polished white stones, and a golden tip. Another bit of detail the creators put is was the surrounding areas. The small rectangle houses, smaller pyramids, and entrance are all accurate according to archaeological finds. Contrary to popular belief, the pyramids were most likely built by citizens as a tax of sorts, as opposed to slave labor. This is the last of the 7 ancient wonders still in existence. 01:16 The pyramid of Khafre built in 2494 BC (middle) and pyramid of Menkaure 2472 BC (left) being constructed. The reason these two are smaller was because the Egypt was fighting wars and did not want to throw as much money and resources towards them as they did with the pyramid of Khufu. 01:33 The Lighthouse of Alexandria built in 247 BC. This was the tallest structure in the world during its completion, but was destroyed after a series of earthquakes in the 14th century AD. Again, the way it is portrayed in the cinematic is highly accurate. 01:36 The Library of Alexandria (I think) built in the 3rd century BC. It contained tens or hundred of thousands of ancient texts, many of which were only copies. over the next 400 years or so, a series of fires completely destroyed most of the texts within the library, and has come to represent an irreparable loss of ancient knowledge and wisdom. The largest fire was said to have started when Caesar set his fleet on fire during his siege of Alexandria, which spread to nearby houses, and eventually the library. If I made any mistakes, please correct me in the comments! Hope you history buffs enjoy this info as much as I enjoyed researching it!

Shooting that bow with his foot was dope af

bayek is up there with Ezio as one of the best protagonist, even tho this is a revenge story most of the time, he still find time to get drunk and have some fun

Admit it! Ubisoft are the best of making trailers...

I love how this trailer shows that bayek isn’t freaking invincible he doesn’t believe in so much stealth he can’t just counter or parry attacks he is human

Wasn’t expecting to see Cleopatra make an appearance in the game. If she’s in the game, then that men’s Julius Ceaser would be appearing as well! This game has piqued my interest once again.

So Cleopatra is in the game? Remember back in AC: II they mentioned Cleopatra getting killed by a female Assassin named Amunet?

4 years later and i still go back to this incredible trailer

Watching this again because theres no cinematic trailer for Odessey

Cleopatra ? Julius Ceaser ? War between Egypt and Rome ? The First assassins and the making of the brotherhood ? Take my f***ing money already !

*My favorite part of this is that Bayek isn't some Master Assassin like previous iterations.* He still gets the job done, but is clumsy compared to his more modern counterparts. That's how it should be. He's the first Assassin. Or the first that unites them. Either way, he shouldn't be wiping the floor with them. He struggled but he still won. Perfect.

6 years later: still one of the best settings of an ac game. Just perfect

It’s 2024 and nothing can match this trailer

Woah. A main character that doesn't have a ponytail? I had no idea that was possible.

Finally, an assassins who isn't entirely op in his trailer.

Who is responsible for this trailer? I want to thank them but I don't know who is responsible.

i pray for the day in game graphics will look like the cinematic trailers..

Ubisoft's cinematic trailers are always top tiers. I hope the game lives up to this trailer. :)

I like how they conveyed the Assassin as being vulnerable in this CG trailer in comparison to the others where they appear almost superhuman. Possibly mirroring the approach that this game is taking as well as how the Assassin's order is in it's very early stages of becoming more developed?

This is a fucking work of art. The music, the animation.

This is probably one of the best cinematic trailers I’ve seen for a game! I need to play Origins again, one of the best AC games in my opinion.. 😄

This trailer is very different from previous AC trailers... It's less epic I think, well it's slow and calm, but it makes it look mysterious...

At least, for the first time in assassin's creed trailer it is shown, that you're not going off from every battle like Rambo. Without any scratch. I think it's good that finally someone show it.

Preorder now and get a bonus pixel

That Voice.....Oh god that voice!!!! .... You want it darker

Let's be honest When Cleopatra and Julius caesar appeared , we were all having goosebumps

The music is awesome

who here after Valhalla trailer??

never played an Assasins Creed...but this just looks amazing! :O

Please don't suck!

They made sure his finger is missing with the hidden blade, I like that.

1:30 This scene of Julius Ceaser is epic in so many levels...

can confirm this game did live up to the hype. HOWEVER... there is a somewhat steep learning curve but once mastered this game is freakin' amazing!

WATCHING IT FOR THE 1000000000000000000000th time.❤

Fans: "AC is the same every year we want something new!" Fans after seeing Origins: "We don't like this new stuff we want it how it used to be!"

Who watch this after see assassin creed valhalla trailer?

Freakin trailer gave me goosebumps!

I always think that Ubisoft has to stop making games and start a making CGI movies

Where the heck is Asterix and Obelisk ?!

Words can't describe how I feel when playing this game. This is by far one of the best assassin's Creed games I've ever played and probably one of the best games ever. I applaud at Ubisoft for making such a beautiful game.

I hope this game lives up to the hype because I'm SUPER HYPED RIGHT NOW!!

In the beginning of the trailer, i think the blue man was at the earlier time in Egypt. As the trailer went on he was close with multiple Pharaohs/Rulers over time, probably an early Templar . Then near the end of the trailer Beyak was executing an assassination attempt, but as he was finished with the guards the blue man escaped. The arrow should've killed on his chair! Unless he was using a Piece of Eden to survive any encounters and grants immortality. Let's hope my theory was correct.

this trailer alone is better than 2023 Netflix's "Black" Cleopatra

3 years after i still rememberd anyone else?

Finally a cinematic trailer :D looks awesome cant wait

So we just gonna ignore that bayek just shot a bow with his fucking foot, that's so badass!!

1:40 Is what gets you instantly hooked on it

Just like all Assassin's Creed trailer this one is also epic!!!Hatsoff to Ubisoft!!

This trailer is so awesome. I didn't want it to end.

For anyone who doesn’t know, the singer is Leonard Cohen, probably one of the most legendary artist up there with Johnny Cash and Elvis Presley. He wrote the song Hallelujah which you might have heard from the Watchmen film.

You know a game is good when you return to watch it’s trailer three years later.

Even after 5 years, no Ubisoft trailer came close.

Nod at the bird and the snake dies. Everywhere, snakes all die!

Odyssey doesn’t have a cinematic trailer 😢

*Buys Assassin's Creed Origins and calls at school* Me: Hello, I won't be able to come tommorow due to a medical condition Head teacher: You bought Assassin's Creed Origins didn't you? Me: Uhhhhh Head teacher: I won't be coming either, I got it too.

Watching this in 1080p is insane

I want an ancient Rome DLC.

1:21 Introducing Julius Caesar was the best part of the trailer in my opinion.

Goosebumps while watching this. One of my favorite game series. What a direction, editing and music❤

how did Bayek get such a good lineup tho

1 year ago we got a cgi trailer that is totally epic. Now we dont have anything epic in the marketing campaign of odyssey:(

Man this game was so good, wish they would bring bayek/Amunet back for another game

Show of hands who's watching this after the 60fps update announcement?

i just loved how he shot the arrow in the end like he practiced it before

I missed Assassin's Creed in 2016, but still glad they took their time!

Can we all just agree that even if ubis games arent the best, they make some badass trailers for them

If that foot finishing move is not there. I'm gonna be soo pissed!!

The intensity the song creates is incredible

"Pre-order now to get a bonus mission" Ugh Ubisoft never changes.

Coming back to this after playing the game...still gives me chills.

2023 five years later and this best rpg in assassin’s creed that sticks to the classic assassin’s creed

ptolmaic greek soldiers look so badass and the native egyptian guards too .

The rhyming is legend

The second best Game I have ever played in my life.

comeback because of that hardest transition ever meme

Them Hazel eyes though

Who’s coming back here after the AC Shadows reveal?!

2020 and I am still watching the trailer because it's so cool.

After Unity Trailer best trailer for a AC game 👌

This trailer...goosebumps! Excellent choice using Leonard Cohen's music. 👍🏻

0:06 the future of project scorpio

I've been playing video games for 23 years, but I've never seen another game as good as this one.

Revelations used to be my go to AC trailer. Cause of the awesome song and cinematic. But this is so good too!

awesome as always, at least every cinematic is perfect XD

Hidden blade with missing ring finger... I'm glad they didn't forget that little detail. Continuity is good.

Just the trailer is a masterpiece I watched it over ten times

this song is amazing, it's perfect for the cinematic

I just had goosebumps everytime when he said, " You want it darker, we killed the flame."

When Senu grabbed the snake omg😳

Absolutely love this trailer, one of the most classy and epic video trailers ever made IMO.

"you want it darker..." That line and that voice = badass!

that eagle at the end just made the fudging trailer perfect

I think Julius Caesar will be on our side that is the assassin's side probably this will be a Masterpiece of the game.

You want it darker is a perfect match for this trailer. I would have to say this is by far my favorite out of the assassin creed series.

A masterpiece, they've even edited the whole video to match the lyrics of the background song. The best AC trailer ever, even Hollywood movies' trailers ain't like this. Kudos to AC team.

The eagle knows this Assassin is in trouble so the eagle grabs the cobra with its feet claws

Ubisoft best at making cinematic trailer allways! I miss this era really now I can say this is true assassin creed.
