I t’s tempting to write off Immortals as a sort of Assassin’s Creed Odyssey Lite: a place for Ubisoft to dump its spare Greek-flavoured assets.
Yes, it shares plenty of the same DNA, but the mythical Golden Isle offers much more – it’s stuffed with colour and charm, and littered with secrets and opportunities. You play as Fenyx, a hero handed the task of liberating the world from Typhon, a monstrous beast who has turned all mortals to stone – including Fenyx’s brother and, even more unforgiveably, some chickens.
