This surprise return to Ancient Greece allows us to tackle some questions left unanswered.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u00ab We were very happy to return to Assassin&#8217;s Creed Odyssey. It&#8217;s kind of like coming back to your childhood home. But we also had to be careful. The same goes for the Valhalla universe, where we were more of a guest. In both cases, we had a great concern to remain faithful to what has already been done and to respect the essence of the two characters.\u00bb Cl\u00e9mence Nogrix, Associate Creative Director<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-5254\" src=\"https:\/\/quebec.ubisoft.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AC_Crossover_Stories_ACV_KassandraAndEivorFight-scaled-1-1024x576.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/quebec.ubisoft.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AC_Crossover_Stories_ACV_KassandraAndEivorFight-scaled-1-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/quebec.ubisoft.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AC_Crossover_Stories_ACV_KassandraAndEivorFight-scaled-1-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/quebec.ubisoft.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AC_Crossover_Stories_ACV_KassandraAndEivorFight-scaled-1-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/quebec.ubisoft.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AC_Crossover_Stories_ACV_KassandraAndEivorFight-scaled-1-1536x864.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/quebec.ubisoft.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AC_Crossover_Stories_ACV_KassandraAndEivorFight-scaled-1.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><strong><br \/>\nBeing together&#8230; from afar<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The entire project was done in &#8220;Work from home&#8221;, from the beginning of the design to the launch.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u00abWork from home comes with its own set of questions and pitfalls.
