This Assassin’s Creed Odyssey news follows a rumor that has been circulating online indicating players will see the beginning of the Order present in Origins that later become the Templars. While this remains unknown, Dumont does confirm that Odyssey’s story will revolve around “how First Civ artifacts created what would become the Templars vs Assassins story, which took place long before the Brotherhood.” While Dumont stops short of confirming the Order’s role in the game, it seems likely that the antagonists in Assassin’s Creed Origins return, since they are at the heart of this conflict....

In 2017, Assassin’s Creed Origins was released to much anticipation and colossal fanfare. The Cinematic trailer set up the minimal tone for what the game packed. New features such as Hit points for enemies and in-game character equipment made the fanbase much more excited. The thought of equipping some of the most iconic and historical attires is thrilling, to say the least. From Alexander’s Shield to Moonlit shields, there are many shields to loot, but these are without a doubt the best in Assassin’s Creed Origins....

However, Assassin’s Creed Red may earn itself the most fanfare simply because it is such a longer-requested setting than any other. Fans have been beginning Ubisoft for a game set in Japan for a long time, and in fact, Ubisoft even teased Japan as a setting as far back as Assassin’s Creed 3. Now, it seems Ubisoft has decided to turn that tease into a reality, as Game Rant recently previewed the AC Showcase ahead of Ubisoft Forward....

Armor in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla falls within three major archetypes: Bear, Wolf, and Raven. Bear armor is better suited for melee combat and physical attributes. Wolf armor adds to archery skills and ranged capabilities. Raven armor helps players better assassinate from the shadows. One of these Raven sets is the much-discussed Huldufolk set, but it cannot be simply picked up in the game like most of the other armor sets....

Another good thing to note is that the DLC adds only 10 weapons in the game. Valhalla has more than eighty weapons for players to craft and discover, though the DLC won’t contribute much to that high count. If anything, the one thing to keep in mind is to make sure Eivor is strong enough to wield the weapon in question. RELATED: Assassin’s Creed Valhalla: How to Get Cashelore Armor Wealth...

In Wrath of the Druids, because of Dublin’s role in a trade center, AC Valhalla loosely connects to AC Origins, AC Odyssey, AC Revelations, and AC Chronicles: Russia. It even has a slight nod toward AC Rogue, and while The Siege of Paris DLC will hopefully continue this trend, all of this is possible because of the Viking’s tendency to settle everywhere and Assassin’s Creed Valhalla’s place on the timeline....

RELATED: Assassin’s Creed: Historical Figures The Games Nailed These rare items are often well-hidden, demand a high Power Level, or require following a complex process to acquire them. However, what they bring to the table makes the process very worthwhile. Some of these items are powerhouses in terms of combat, while others just make the player look very stylish as they traverse the world of Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. Updated January 4, 2023, by Stephen LaGioia: Ubisoft has continued to expand the content of this already massive Viking epic, capped off with the final DLC add-on, The Last Chapter, in November....

CNN hyped the event heavily on its Web site, crowing in its recap that though the cable network “vetted the questions, it was the first time that a journalist or a professional has not dictated what is asked of the candidates. The control was solely in the voters’ hands.” Actually, the control was in Anderson Cooper’s hands—a fact which rankled many dedicated YouTubers, who would have preferred that CNN air the most popular videos submitted....

With the way things have shaped up for Madrid so far this season, it’s fair to say Perez has made mistakes after mistakes and will have to make some key changes over the summer to rectify these mistakes. Los Blancos have set a number of unwanted records this season. Their loss against CSKA Moscow in the Champions League was the first time they lost home and away in the Champions League group stage....

A hat-trick from record-breaker Sergio Aguero, who may well go down as one of the best strikers of the game, accompanied by goals from Riyad Mahrez and Gabriel Jesus completed the rout. Anwar El Ghazi made no mistake to convert in the 91st minute after an error from Nicholas Otamendi awarded the hosts a paltry consolation. It was more than just a complete display from Manchester City; there was polished passing, link-up and quality written all over the grass at Villa Park....

AstraZeneca and Oxford University have been working on an adenovirus-based vaccine, officially named ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 (AZD1222). The vaccine is a viral vector vaccine. This means it uses a modified adenovirus—a virus that causes the common cold—to deliver genetic material from the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Oxford had been studying adenovirus-based vaccines for several other diseases like the Zika virus when COVID-19 emerged. Researchers used a weakened chimpanzee adenovirus to develop the vaccine....

The resin globes made by Nia Imara, an assistant professor of astronomy and astrophysics at UC Santa Cruz, will allow astronomers to hold these vast clouds of gas and dust in the palm of their hands and study them in unprecedented detail. Stellar nurseries—regions of intense star formation made up of molecular clouds of gas and dust—are the building blocks for infant stars and are vital for understanding how stars systems and galaxies evolve....

Technology has been good to astronomers. It has let them escape the cold and cramped basket on giant telescopes, where these sky watchers used to spend long and lonely nights exposing photographic plates to the dim light of distant galaxies. These days, astronomers hang out in a toasty control room while digital instruments collect the data. It also allows them to monitor data from telescopes in Hawaii or Chile or even space while sitting at their home computers....

Greinke has struck out eight on 69 pitches. The Astros lead 2-0. The All-Star lost his perfect game in the sixth when he walked Dee Gordon, ending his streak of consecutive innings without a free pass at 29 1/3. He got out of the inning with a double play. The Mariners have been no-hit twice this season, including once already by the Astros. No team has ever been no-hit three times in a season....

The Astros swept the Yankees in the 2022 ALCS to win their fourth pennant in six years. And for the second year in a row, they’re going up against an NL East team that has gotten hot at the right time in the Phillies.

Most importantly for those in the UK, Asus has confirmed that the ROG Phone 5 will be available in Britain later this year after not stocking 2020’s ROG Phone 3 or ZenFone 7, although the same can’t be said for the upgraded models – but more on that later. Sporting an updated design, the ROG Phone 5 boasts noticeably thinner bezels than its predecessor without compromising on the front-facing stereo speaker setup favoured by many mobile gamers....

ASUS is not letting CES 2023 pass it by without making some announcements of its own as well. ASUS has a variety of Chromebook laptops readily available that vary in terms of power and price. The ASUS Chromebook Vibe line of laptops are marketed specifically as cloud gaming laptops, and while there have been some blows to the cloud gaming space recently, like Stadia’s closure, it’s still a growing market with some companies making serious headway....

This was a big reveal regarding Assassin’s Creed Mirage’s Djinn, as it means its role in the story isn’t as obvious as it once thought. This obviously led to many developing new theories regarding the Djinn—it could be trying to protect Basim (as Djinn are not inherently or necessarily evil), perhaps it is a past reincarnation trying to warn him as an invisible being (though it’s not certain how Norse Isu reincarnation works vs....
