Release date: Oct 5, 2018 Data as of 2026-10-19 View on Steam ↗

Players who really played rate it about the same as Steam overall. Early impressions are weaker, so the first few hours tend to decide whether it clicks.

Good for

  • Players willing to push through a slow start
  • Players who want dozens of hours of play

Think twice if you are

  • Players who judge a game in the first hours (early ratings are lower)
  • Players bothered by bugs (reports of crashes and bugs)
  • Fans expecting the same experience as earlier entries

Summary

Assassin's Creed Odyssey has a TrueGG Rating of 88.2%: the positive share among 5,016 reviews written in the last 180 days by players with 20+ hours, close to Steam's overall 88.7%. Players who really play it broadly agree with the headline number (all time: 90.8%).

Reviews written under 2 hours make up 3% of the total, and only 47% of them are positive. Some players bounce off early, but those who get past the opening rate it higher. Steam accepts refund requests within 2 hours of play and 14 days of purchase.

Beyond the first hours, approval is fairly even across playtime.

Negative reviews most often mention crashes and bugs (less than at launch), boredom (less than at launch), and grind (less than at launch).

Among Japanese-language reviews, the TrueGG Rating is 74.5%, 13.7 points below all languages.

Re-weighting reviews by trust signals (playtime, length, how the game was obtained) barely changes the rating (87.7% adjusted), so Steam's number is not noticeably distorted by key giveaways or throwaway reviews.

All figures come from Steam's public review counts, and topics are counted with our published dictionary (no AI). Data as of 2026-10-19.
