The Discovery Tours are downloadable education tools which allows players to explore various worlds without combat and gameplay constraints.
The first Discovery Tour was released as a downloadable add-on for Assassin's Creed: Origins on 20 February 2018 and is available for free to those who own the base game, or for purchase as a stand-alone version on PC. In it, players are to free roam the game's map of ancient Egypt and learn about the kingdom's history through a series of guided tours.[1]
A second Discovery Tour, this time set in ancient Greece, was released as downloadable content for Assassin's Creed: Odyssey and as a standalone for PC.[2] It was released on 10 September 2019.[3]
