To begin The Heir of Memories, you will need to complete the Pythagoras story line, then the quest will appear automatically in your quest log.

The Heir of Memories marks the beginning of The Fate of Atlantis DLC story arc, and will need to be completed in order to begin Episode 1, Fields of Elysium.

The Heir of Memories is currently available and free for all players.

Review the previously released Lost Tales of Greece in our March Monthly Update.

THE FATE OF ATLANTIS

EPISODE 1 - FIELDS OF ELYSIUM

In Fields of Elysium, you must begin unlocking the power of the Staff of Hermes while trying to escape the bewitching paradise you find yourself in. But there's only one way - through Persephone, who rules with an iron fist over Elysium.

By helping Hermes, Persephone's friend Hekate, and the human Adonis, you will uncover the true nature of Elysium as it inevitably descends into civil war.

To start Episode 1 of The Fate of Atlantis story arc, you will need to complete the quest line Between Two Worlds (the mythical creature main story line), and the Lost Tales of Greece story pack, The Heir of Memories.

For players who have not completed the story lines needed to begin The Fate of Atlantis, a temporary save file will be made available to allow you access to the Fields of Elysium content as soon as it is released.

The Fate of Atlantis DLC is available as part of the Assassin's Creed Odyssey season pass, or can be purchased separately.

Fields of Elysium will be released on April 23.
