Ubisoft gave the world its first official look at Assassin's Creed Odyssey during its E3 2018 press conference. This year's installment looks to shake the series up with a number of new features and mechanics, but it also brings back a fan-favorite element: ship combat.

Just as in Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag, naval battles will play an integral role in Assassin's Creed Odyssey. As the game is set in Ancient Greece, players will be able to navigate the sea in a trireme warship and take on pirates and other threats patrolling the waters. Players will also be able to customize their ships and recruit allies and enemies into their crew, who'll bolster the team with their perks and abilities.
