Here’s a list of all updates and content coming to Assassin’s Creed Origins this December:
Title Update
A new title update will be released in December. This update will add more content and allow you to enjoy the game with increased challenge. Here’s what you can look forward to:
- Nightmare mode: a new Nightmare difficulty level will be available. The enemies will become more resilient to damages and more dangerous.
- Enemy scaling: by popular request, we will add the enemy scaling option. When this option is activated, the game automatically scale the lower level enemies to your level.
- Nightmare and First Civ pack items will be available in the Heka Chest.
You will also get two new quests:
- A new quest introducing Horde mode. The event quest, Here Comes a New Challenger, will introduce you to Horde mode to satisfy your warrior longings. You can prove yourself in the Cyrene arena against unlimited waves of foes. We recommend Level 32 or higher.
- A new surprise quest! (Quiet likely to be a Final Fantasy XV-related side quest as the GIF below hints a Chocobo as a mount for Bayek).
Some community members discovered a mural in Assassin’s Creed Origins which depicts Ardyn and Noctis from Final Fantasy XV, along with pillars, Square Enix logos engraved on a wall that seems to be a gate to an underground tomb which they weren’t able to open. Using a specific hack, they managed to peak into the still-unfinished corridor which features blue flames which seemingly look like they belong in the world of Final Fantasy XV. After this announcement and the reveal of the GIF above, it is quite likely that the new surprise quest is a Final Fantasy-related one. Special thanks to @Wulf91 for the images.
Trials of the Gods
This month, players will have a chance to fight the last god of the god trio, the warrior goddess herself, Sekhmet. Are you ready to face the fiercest hunter known to the ancient Egyptians?
The Trial Awaits
But it does not end here. Back in November, many of you proved worthy when you beat Anubis and Sobek in the first two Trials of the Gods. We know that not everyone had the chance to face those gods at that time but fear not, now is your time. Players will have the chance to confront all three gods.
