EGX attendees will have the opportunity to get hands-on with Assassin's Creed OriginsFar Cry 5Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle and South Park: The Fractured but Whole between the 21st September and 24th September at The NEC, Birmingham.

Assassin's Creed Origins brings the blockbuster series to Ancient Egypt, a land of majesty and intrigue disappearing in a ruthless fight for power. Unveil dark secrets and forgotten myths as you go back to the one founding moment: The Origins of the Assassin's Brotherhood. Visitors to EGX will have the option to play either the Xbox One X or PC versions of the game.

In Far Cry 5 players are tasked with leading a resistance against a fanatical cult in small town, U.S.A.

South Park: The Fractured but Whole is the hotly anticipated follow up to 2014's The Stick of Truth. Created, written, voiced, and directed by Trey Parker and Matt Stone and featuring more than twice as much content as the previous game, The Fractured But Whole is authentic, interactive South Park at its finest.

Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle tells the story of an unexpected encounter between the most iconic video game hero of all time, Mario, and the irreverent, chaotic & cute Rabbids. Featuring tactical turn-based combat, Mario and his friends will use never-before-seen weapons and embark on an epic quest to put the Mushroom Kingdom back in order. The game will be playable in both single-player and co-op at EGX.
