We’re just about a month out from Assassin’s Creed Origins, and Ubisoft is ramping up the PR, this time with a spooky, melancholy and oddly beautiful cinematic trailer, where all of Ancient Egypt slowly turns to sand and drifts away.

As cool trailers for Assassin’s Creed go, this ranks pretty highly; probably up there with that really bloody great one for Assassin’s Creed Revelations from 2011, that we all still remember because it had a great song.

There have been a number of interesting announcements for Origins lately, including that of a non-combat educational mode being patched in early next year, and a machine learning project to aid in the translation of hieroglyphics. 

Check out the latest trailer below. Assassin’s Creed Origins is out on Xbox One, PC and PS4 on October 27.
