Through the ups and downs of Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed franchise, there have been countless cultures and time period s explored. From as early as ancient Greece to as recent as London during the first World War, the history of Assassin's Creed has walked hand in hand with the history of civilization.
Ubisoft's most recent entry into the franchise, Assassin's Creed Valhalla, promises to fix what didn't work in Assassin's Creed: Odyssey and also expand on what did with entries like Assassin's Creed: Origins. One of the ways that this is being implemented is by including an era of history that is rife with conflict from the sides of the Vikings and the Saxons. This means that the clash of two cultures in a desperate bid for survival will create conflict that only Assassin's Creed knows best.
The Norse culture is rich with characters and stories that many recall thanks to films like Thor and games like God of War. Ubisoft aims to give a more historically accurate depiction of these teachings by showing how the gods of Norse Mythology were worshipped and treated in this time. A new video that was released goes in-depth on this topic while giving stunning visuals of places that the players will be able to venture into.
Assassin's Creed: Valhalla looks to bring the franchise back to its roots while daring to innovate yet again; will you pick up the blade? We would love to hear your thoughts on the game and the video in the comments below!
Set in 873 AD, the game recounts a fictional story of the Viking invasion of Britain. The player controls Eivor, a Viking raider who becomes embroiled in the conflict between the Brotherhood of Assassins and the Templar Order.
Assassin's Creed: Valhalla is coming to the PS4, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X on November 10th and the PS5 on November 12th!
