Which Assassin's Creed game features Bayek's eagle Senu as a scouting companion?

The story behind the answer

Assassin's Creed Origins features Bayek's eagle Senu as a scouting companion.

Senu is a trained eagle used by Bayek of Siwa to survey areas from above. Players can control Senu's flight to identify enemies, animals, resources, and locations before Bayek enters an area. This expands the series' earlier reconnaissance mechanics into a dedicated aerial scouting system.

The eagle also reflects Bayek's identity as a Medjay, a protector and law-enforcement figure in ancient Egypt. Senu accompanies him throughout much of the game and supports both exploration and preparation for combat.

Other Assassin's Creed games use different animal companions or reconnaissance features. Odyssey has an eagle associated with Kassandra or Alexios, while Valhalla uses a raven. Those companions are not Senu, and their names and gameplay roles should not be treated as interchangeable.
