Assassin’s Creed Odyssey will offer players the choice to play as the male Alexios or female Kassandra, Ubisoft today confirmed.
The characters will share pretty much everything it seems, from character traits and mannerisms right up to identical skill trees.
Alexios and Kassandra “have the same powers and abilities,” Odyssey Senior Producer Marc-Alexis Côté told Stevivor.
Odyssey begins as Alexios/Kassandra returns to Sparta 17 years after being exiled.
Our captured gameplay is proving to be a little difficult, but trust us when we say that playing as Alexios offered the same prompts and options as Kassandra.
