Assassin's Creed Origins is a 2017 action role-playing game developed by Ubisoft Montreal and published by Ubisoft. It is the tenth major installment in the Assassin's Creed series and the successor to Assassin's Creed Syndicate (2015). Set in Egypt during the reign of Cleopatra, the story follows a Medjay named Bayek of Siwa and his wife Aya as they seek revenge for the murder of their son, which leads to the founding of the Assassin Brotherhood and their long-running conflict with the Templar Order. The story is followed in the modern day by Layla Hassan, an Abstergo researcher who is inducted into the Assassins.
