From the creators of Assassin's Creed Odyssey, a game which us Switch owners didn't get, comes a game, which looks more than a little bit like Zelda but with a mythological focus.
Gods & Monsters is the latest title from Ubisoft coming to all platforms and it certainly looks promising from the CG trailer... promising what, we don't know yet but it definitely promises to be something.
Check below for the PR and the reveal trailer...
From the creators of Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, watch the world premiere of Gods & Monsters, an epic journey through the fantastical world of Greek mythology.
Release Date: 25th February 2020 #GodsandMonsters #UBIE3
ABOUT GODS AND MONSTERS: From the creators of Assassin’s Creed Odyssey comes a storybook adventure about a forgotten hero on a quest to save the Greek gods. Prove your heroism by fighting dangerous mythological creatures and taking on their fearsome leader in a face-off for the ages. Explore a beautiful fantasy world where tricky trials, treacherous dungeons and heroic feats await. The journey will be as challenging and rewarding as the final destination and you will emerge as the hero you are meant to become.
In Gods & Monsters, the Greek gods have fallen, and it's up to Fenyx, a hero forgotten by myth, to see them take their place atop Mt. Olympus once again. The Isle of the Blessed has been taken over by Typhon – the deadliest of all Greek monsters – and you'll need to defeat him and his army of dangerous mythological beasts to restore order. To accomplish this, you'll have to overcome puzzling trials, traverse treacherous dungeons, take on legendary quests, and battle Greek mythology's most lethal monsters in this open-world action adventure.
In addition to relying on your own formidable capabilities, you'll need to seek help from the gods and their divine powers, every one of which you'll need to wield to defeat Typhon and his army of gorgons, harpies, cyclopes, and other mythical monsters across a lush, mysterious open world with a look that evokes painted storybooks.
Will you be investing time in this new IP from Ubisoft? Does the world portrayed within the brief but beautiful CG trailer stir up any interest? Is this a theme which you think you'll enjoy? (It's all Greek to me)
