It has six stages, which replicate things you will do in the game such as climbing, swinging, and balancing on things.</p><p>As you might have guessed, the final section is the "Leap of Faith," where participants jump off a seven-meter platform to a safe landing zone below. Those who successfully complete the entire course will get a Spartan helmet inspired by the game.</p><p>Ubisoft partnered with Microsoft for this promotion, and there will be 16 Xbox One X game stations available at the event for people to play Assassin's Creed Odyssey. Ubisoft is giving away three Odyssey-themed Xbox One X consoles, one each people who upload the best photo, best video, and best cosplay to Instagram and tag it with #AssassinsCreedChallenge.</p><p>You can register for the free event <a href="https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/ubisoft-presents-the-assassins-creed-challenge-sydney-tickets-50338710438">here on Eventbrite</a>. It runs from 10 AM to 5 PM on October 5 and 9 AM to 5 PM on October 6. There will also be food trucks.</p><p>Odyssey launches on October 5 for PS4 and Xbox One.
