Yesterday, Ubisoft released a deep dive video into Assassin’s Creed Valhalla but the real draw was over an hour’s worth of gameplay in a stream that was also broadcast yesterday. The stream was hosted by game designer Jessica Maher who looked at elements like the village of Ravensthorpe, the return of social stealth, and the combat styles that players can use in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. The full stream can be watched below.
A couple of weeks ago, Ubisoft announced a tie in novel for Assassin’s Creed Valhalla called Geirmund’s Saga. The story does not follow main character Eivor but instead Geirmund Hel-hide. It is an adventure that will explore the raids on Britain with some mythical elements thrown in that tie up Geirmund’s fate as he looks for glory and comes face to face with betrayal. Geirmund’s Saga will be released on November 26th for £7.99.
Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is launching on the 10th of November, a week earlier than previously announced, to line up with the launch of the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S. The game will be be releasing for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC and Google Stadia. For the home consoles, if you’re not hitting the next-gen on day one there’s free cross-gen upgrades, like using Smart Delivery on Xbox.
