Since it first launched in 2007, the Assassin’s Creed series has sold more than 200 million games worldwide. The franchise is now established as one of the best-selling series in video game history. Recognized for having some of the richest, most engrossing storytelling in the industry, Assassin’s Creed transcends video games, branching out into numerous other entertainment media.
Assassin's Creed Origins is a 2017 action-role-playing video game developed by Ubisoft Montreal and published by Ubisoft. It is the tenth major installment in the Assassin's Creed series. The player takes on the role of a Medjay named Bayek of Siwa and his wife Aya, as they work to protect the people of Ptolemaic Egypt during a time of widespread upheaval. The Pharaoh, Ptolemy XIII, struggles to maintain his rule while harboring ambitions of expanding his kingdom.
His sister, the recently deposed Cleopatra, begins marshaling loyalist forces to launch a counter-coup against Ptolemy. Additionally, incursions into the Kingdom by the Roman Republic under the command of Julius Caesar lead to fears of an imminent invasion. Bayek's role as a Medjay brings him and Aya into contact with the secretive forces manipulating these events and into forming the Hidden Ones, the precursor organization to the Assassin Brotherhood.
Bayek
Bayek was a Berber-Egyptian born and raised in Siwa, an oasis in western Egypt near the Libyan border. Bayek and his wife Aya settled in Siwa, where he devoted himself to his duties as the last Medjay while the couple raised their young son Khemu. When Ptolemaic soldiers came to the oasis demanding access to the Temple of Amun, Bayek refused to cooperate. Bayek’s refusal led to the upheaval of his life. His drive for personal vengeance slowly evolved into a drive to see right championed for its own good. Bayek’s Medjay background made him a principled man with a tendency toward idealism, respected and just. Bayek’s empathy led him to care deeply about Egypt and its people. Bayek’s personal ethics and morals, along with those of his wife, Aya, shaped the creation of organization devoted to justice known as the Hidden Ones, which would later evolve into the Brotherhood of Assassins.
