The closest games to Assassin's Creed Odyssey are Assassin's Creed Origins, Assassin's Creed Valhalla and Ghost of Tsushima. Below, 9 picks with the reason for each — what carries over from Assassin's Creed Odyssey, and what does not.
Odyssey's Greece is the best map Ubisoft has built and the naval combat is genuinely good rather than a distraction. It is an RPG in Assassin's Creed clothing, with dialogue choices and a mercenary system that hunts you across the world. It is also enormous.
Also written as AC Odyssey, Assassins Creed Odyssey — this is the same game, and the same list applies however you spell it.
Assassin's Creed Odyssey released on the PC & Modern Multi-Platform. The list below is not restricted to that console — a recommendation is only useful if you can actually play it, so it spans generations and platforms.
Tighter, better paced, and the better story of the two.
The follow-up, broken into regional arcs that are easier to finish.
The best-feeling open world of that generation.
Same scale, far better side content.
Open-world adventure with genuinely great combat.
Ubisoft's other Greek game, lighter and puzzle-led.
Greek mythology done superbly, and it respects your time.
If you want an open world that rewards curiosity rather than marks it.
The most detailed open world made, and the best-written.
Several of these have their own page here: games like Assassin's Creed Valhalla, games like Horizon Zero Dawn, games like Immortals Fenyx Rising, games like Hades, games like Elden Ring.
The 5 of these picks that have a page here, and the console each is catalogued under. Most are on more platforms than one — remasters and back catalogues move constantly — so treat this as where to start looking rather than a complete availability list.
| Game | Catalogued under |
|---|---|
| Assassin's Creed Valhalla | PC |
| Horizon Zero Dawn | PS4 |
| Immortals Fenyx Rising | PC |
| Hades | Switch |
| Elden Ring | PS5 |
Assassin's Creed Origins. Tighter, better paced, and the better story of the two.
Assassin's Creed Origins, Assassin's Creed Valhalla and Ghost of Tsushima are the closest. The full list of Assassin's Creed Odyssey similar games is on this page — 9 of them, each with the reason it is here rather than a genre tag that happens to match.
Yes — Assassin's Creed Valhalla and Immortals Fenyx Rising are catalogued on the PC here. The PC list further down has more from that library.
Because the thing you liked about Assassin's Creed Odyssey is not a property of the hardware. Restricting the list to one console would drop most of the good answers, so the picks above span platforms and eras. If you specifically want more from that library, the PC list further down is the place to start.
By hand, one game at a time, on what the source game actually does — its pacing, its movement, its difficulty, its tone. Genre tags alone put Assassin's Creed Odyssey next to games that feel nothing like it, so they are not the basis for this list. Each pick carries the reason it is here so you can judge it yourself.
