Real life Assassin’s Creed Parkour course coming to Sydney in October
To celebrate the release of Assassin’s Creed Odyssey on October 5, Ubisoft is offering fans a chance to become a real-life assassin. On October 5 and 6, Metcalfe Park in Sydney will be transformed into a full-size Assassin’s Creed Odyssey parkour course.
The Assassin’s Creed Odyssey parkour course has been designed to reflect the Ancient Greece setting of the game. Featuring six different obstacles to tackle, the parkour course is designed to approximate stunts and moves that will be performed in the game.
According to Ubisoft, “Each daring obstacle will have fans running, climbing, swinging and balancing their way through the ruins and statues of Ancient Greece’s myths and legends.”

Any Assassin’s Creed parkour course wouldn’t be complete without a Leap of Faith. The final obstacle of the course is a seven meter Leap of Faith onto a landing platform below. Every participant who manages to complete the course will take home a very special, limited Assassin’s Creed Odyssey Spartan Helmet.
In addition, attendees will be able to go hands-on with Assassin’s Creed Odyssey on one of the 16 Xbox One X gaming pods on site.
Ubisoft Australia Managing Director Edward Fong said, “An Assassin’s Creed Obstacle course has been one of the most sought after requests by not only the Assassin’s Creed Community but all Australian gamers.
“We are extremely excited to be bringing the concept to life to celebrate the launch of Assassin’s Creed Odyssey on October 5.”
