As the first game coming from Patrice Desilets since Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood, expectations are incredibly high and it’s clear this is an ambitious project for the team. Unfortunately, review scores are all over the spectrum so it seems like while many will really enjoy their time with Ancestors, it’s not going to be a game for everyone.
Ancestors: The Humankind Odyssey is out now for PC with PS4 and Xbox One coming in December 2019.
