Assassin's Creed Origins is about to release, and Ubisoft has unveiled the official launch trailer. It gives players a sneak peek at the game's action and its story, which tells the tale of the beginning of the Assassin Brotherhood. Check it out in the video above, and then read GameSpot's full Assassin's Creed Origins review to see what it gets right, and what it doesn't.

The trailer, called Legend of The Assassin, introduces Bayek, a warrior in Ancient Egypt whose struggle against the corrupt forces of the time leads him towards becoming the first Assassin. Unlike other games in the series, which always advanced the story forward in time, Origins is a prequel to those that came before it. There's a lot to the plot and lore of the franchise's universe, so if you haven't played the previous games or just need a refresher, check out GameSpot's recap of the Assassin's Creed story so far.
