Assassin's Creed Valhalla (Assassin's Creed Valhalla) was set up in 873 AD, mainly targeting the Viking raids in England and their final settlement on land. Therefore, the game will feature the rolling hills of England and the icy Norwegian coastline.
Narrative director Darby McDevitt said in a recent developer comment: "England itself was quite disintegrated at the time, and many kings ruled different parts of it."
The Vikings used this advantage to successfully carry out a long-term air raid, using the rivers of England to strike the target in a guerrilla warfare. But they are not only interested in raids, many Vikings want to settle on this land, Valhalla will portray this. The focus of role-playing games is Viking leader Eivor, who wants to find a new home for his people.
As Eivor, you will make choices on how to establish these settlements, as well as other choices that will affect the lives of settlers. This is a role-playing game with basic construction technicians, distributed in a wide variety of maps with the theme of the four kingdoms in England.
McDewitt explained: "If you look at England now and see any town that ends in" Thorpe "or" bystander ", it may mean that it is Viking Town, Nordic or Danish Town." So, just pass Their number (of which there are hundreds of towns), we know that they are very successful settlers. "
The CGI trailer focused on Alfred the Great, one of England ’s most powerful kings at the time. Creative Director Ashraf Ismail said: "He was the king of Wessex, the southernmost kingdom in Britain at the time." "We also deal with three other countries (Mercia, Northumbria and East Anglia) .
"(King Alfred) especially one of the most determined opponents of the Viking invasion. He is the strongest of the kings. He was able to return them and deal with them for a while, while the other kings were in the Danes and Northern Europe People collapsed under the violent impact. "
I am personally excited about this setting because it may mean that my hometown has time to shine. According to History.com: "On the banks of the Trent River in Toxie, Lincolnshire, there was only one known Viking camp, and thousands of Vikings gathered to wait for the winter of 872-873 AD, "History.com said. The camp covers an area of 136 acres and will definitely be depicted in the competition.
In addition to these four British kingdoms, the game started in Norwegian settlements. There is no doubt that this will be where our heroes decide that their people need to find a new home. Ismail explained: "The journey started in Norway and will eventually lead to the United Kingdom, where there is another idea about making people live and work and build prosperous settlements."
Elsewhere, Ubisoft talked about why Assassin's Creed Valhalla no longer hides the blade. Oh, you can almost double use.
You will be able to play the male or female Eivor, no matter which choice is actually a model of the story.
Assassin's Creed Valhalla will land on PS4, Xbox One, PC, PS5 and Xbox SeriesX this holiday season. We will be demonstrating gameplay for the first time in the Microsoft Xbox showcase on May 7.
