Well holla the forest fairy, with Assassin's Creed: Valhalla Ubisoft apparently goes to the full. More studios than ever are involved in the new part.
After yesterday's announcement of Assassin's Creed: Valhalla in a long (and lengthy) stream, the official trailer, hopefully with details on setting, story and gameplay, is set to follow today at 5 p.m.
The tension increases, not least due to the fact that Valhalla could become the least expensive part of the series. As Ubisoft Montreal mentioned in a tweet, a whopping 15 co-developer studios were involved in the development. Quite impressive, especially in the context that "only" ten studios had worked on the predecessor Odyssey. The tweet also shows that Ubisoft Montreal has apparently taken over the management of the development.
Exciting! An immense congratulations to our studio warriors for all the good work and passion building to that reveal. We’d also like to thank the 14 co-dev studios all around the world. You know who you are, and we're thankful for your dedication! Scal! pic.twitter.com/hBPpFZKkrP

In any case, we are very curious whether and what changes there will be compared to the previous parts of Origins and Odyssey. As I said, we will learn more today at 5 p.m. Then we will also find out what happened to previous leaks, which spoke of a co-op mode and increased focus on RPG mechanics, among other things.
