Why Bayek of Siwa matters to collectors
Origins rebuilt the series after a year off, and Bayek carries that reset. He is the founder story the franchise had skirted for a decade: a Medjay protecting Egyptian villages who ends up creating the order the other games belong to. Grief drives his plot rather than revenge for its own sake, which sets him apart from the rest of the cast.
Key issues and milestones
- Assassin's Creed Origins (2017) - Ptolemaic Egypt, a full role-playing overhaul, and the founding of the Hidden Ones.
- The Hidden Ones (2018) - The first expansion, following Bayek into the Sinai several years on.
- Discovery Tour: Ancient Egypt (2018) - A combat-free guided mode built with historians and used in actual classrooms.
- Curse of the Pharaohs (2018) - Thebes, Egyptian afterlives, and the series at its most openly fantastical.
Discovery Tour grew out of a request from teachers who were already using the game to show pupils Ancient Egypt, so Ubisoft stripped out the combat and shipped the tour as a standalone mode.
Collecting Bayek of Siwa through the years
Origins landed at the point where Ubicollectibles was producing genuinely good resin work, so Bayek's statues are better made than the early Altair pieces by a wide margin. The Dawn of the Creed collector's editions bundled busts and dioramas that are now the anchor of the physical Origins market. Egyptian iconography also brought in buyers who were never Assassin's Creed collectors, which is unusual for a game licence.
