00:04 If there's one thing I'd like players to know about Nexus,
00:07 is that this isn't a small VR experience that lasts but a few hours.
00:11 This is a full proper AC game,
00:13 where you get to play three different assassins across three different time periods,
00:17 and it's all wrapped up together in a brand new Assassin's Creed story.
00:20 The way it works really is that the modern day story is the wrapper for this.
00:25 The idea is that you're an elite player hacker that has been,
00:28 that is undercover for the Brotherhood and is now working for Abstergo.
00:31 Dominica Wilke is the main character from Abstergo,
00:34 who has you jumping through memories of three different assassins,
00:37 who have at some point in their lives encountered
00:39 these artifacts that Abstergo is looking for.
00:42 When you boil down to the three key pillars of Assassin's Creed,
00:46 and what we focused on in Nexus,
00:48 stealth being number one,
00:50 is really going back to the basics and the roots,
00:52 and to allow players to experience that in VR.
00:55 So that was top pillar for us.
00:56 The second one is exploration/navigation.
00:59 So that's a mix of being able to climb and parkour
01:03 and run all over the rooftops of all these environments,
01:06 but also to get the sense of being in that environment,
01:09 right, in the historical place.
01:11 And then the third one is combat.
01:12 So from single enemies to multiple enemies,
01:15 and fighting like an assassin with all those key iconic weapons.
01:18 So the dream of Nexus really is to fundamentally allow players
01:22 to become a master assassin with these three different settings,
01:26 and these three different beloved characters.
