In what is a probably an unintentional but well timed move by Ubisoft, Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is available to play for free across all formats this weekend. As far as I can see there are no limitations, no level cap, nothing stopping you from hammering the whole game and finishing it but you might want to think about sleeping at some point.
