- TechRaptor8.5The truth is, there’s not much to The Hidden Ones. It’s just more Assassin’s Creed Origins. Is that a bad thing? Considering that it adds a substantial amount of “more”, and that Assassin’s Creed Origins was already a fantastic game to start with, the answer to that is no. In fact, it’s a great thing. If you enjoyed the base game and at any time said “I want to spend more time in Egypt with Bayek”, then you’ll enjoy this expansion.
- IGN8.4A lot of what The Hidden Ones gets right is its ability to take familiar concepts from Assassin’s Creed Origins and make them feel new again by means of a new purpose, a new story, and a new creed. A new direction to the story that makes Bayek more relatable, high-level combat keeps quests challenging even when you’re fully leveled up, and a more rewarding pace of loot provide an opportunity to feel something new without straying too far from what I loved about Origins in the first place.
Gamer reviews
This is a DLC to the AC Origin and it provides the true ending for the game, if you play the campaign, you must play this as well. You visit the Sinai Peninsula and Bayek is finally an Assassin instead of a Medjay. Bayek has grown older and become more focused. This is the brotherhood origin story and shows how the three rules of the AC order came into existence. There are various missions and difficulty has been ramped up. One of the story missions brings a familiar face from the main campaign. The bounty hunters have taken place over the phylakes. Exploring the pyramid being built is a great addition as well. The games ending with the AC music hits me every time and I consider it the true ending for Bayek's story.
