Assassin’s Creed Valhalla
Assassin’s Creed Valhalla continues on in the action RPG tradition of Origins and Odyssey, but set in the 9th century as the Vikings venture to England to settle. As Eivor, the player embarks on a long quest of vengeance but is mixed up in Norse mythology, the Hidden Ones, and the forces of the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms. The loot-grinding of Odyssey has been reined in and there’s a greater focus on World Events as players explore the lands, meeting allies and building up their kingdom. In terms of exploration, story-telling and combat, it works fairly well while refining and updating the formula further. Plus, whether you’re in Norway or venturing across England, the game looks gorgeous at all times.
