Which Assassin’s Creed game takes place mainly in ancient Egypt under the Ptolemaic Kingdom?

Assassin’s Creed Origins is the game set mainly in ancient Egypt under the Ptolemaic Kingdom.

Released in 2017, Origins follows Bayek of Siwa, a Medjay, and Aya as they become involved in the origins of the Hidden Ones, the organization that later develops into the Assassin Brotherhood. The story takes place during the reign of Cleopatra VII and the political struggles involving Ptolemy XIII and Julius Caesar.

The game depicts locations such as Alexandria, Memphis, and the Great Sphinx area. It also introduced a major role-playing redesign, including experience levels, loot, crafting, and a large open world.

The title “Origins” refers to the fictional beginning of the Assassin order rather than the first game released in the franchise. The earlier games are set later in history, and the modern-day storyline remains part of the series’ continuing framework.
