Valhalla: the conquest of Eivor
The story of Assassin's Creed Valhalla put the magnifying glass on the character of Eivor, a Viking hero who set out to conquer 9th century England. Thanks to the Ubisoft trailer, we were able to enjoy a first look at the battles that will take place in huge settings. The title will also provide role options, mechanics that were introduced in the saga with Assassin's Creed: Origins and Assassin's Creed: Odissey.
Other features that we can enjoy in the game will be Viking lootingWe will deplete the forces of the Saxon army in exchange for making our settlements more glorious. In addition, without forgetting the warlike aspect of the game, Ubisoft is again betting on navigation with thanks to the Drakkar, the classic Viking ship that will serve us to navigate from Norway to the English territories.
Eivor, meanwhile, will make his way through the enemy legions armed with two axes than brandish with absolute brutality. But, in addition, our protagonist will also make use of the hidden blade: the classic artifact of the saga that returns players above the forearm, instead of below as usual in previous installments. We can see all this next May 7th, at which time Ubisoft and Microsoft will show the gameplay of the title on Xbox Series X.
