    Very good Assassin's Creed game, so much to do and explore, needs some work (sure), but overall it's fantastic game.

    Of course it has some bugs, it's insanely big open world game, but most bugs were fixed in 1.0.4 patch, now from here on it's just quality fixes and additional content.

    I never really cared for Odyssey, yeah it was fun in 2018, but overall story sucked and it missed so many AC elements. Valhalla fixes it all. Only thing i would complain about Valhalla is that i run out of arrows all the time. Why can't i craft arrows? Come on Ubisoft.

    Great game, keep going Ubisoft! More stuff like this in Far Cry 6 please and not whatever Far Cry 5 was. Make it more serious, make it mean something, go deeper with stuff. You have done it in past with Far Cry 3, AC Black Flag and AC Unity. You can do it again.

    One of the best of 2020 and i'm saying it dead seriously. No game has so much content from this year (so far of course), resident evil 3 and avengers are absolute jokes compared to this. Making 5 hours long game that's sold for 60 should stop. AC Valhalla is easy 150 hours cool content with beautiful graphics.

    It's weird paradox that Assassin's Creed has millions of fans all over the world, but for some reason they never really come to metacritic. Maybe it's because AC fans are more mature and don't give a f_ck about some random scores on some random pages, that would make sense actually.
    And it sold over 1.8 million anyway, so basically who cares about metacritic user score at this point.

    Assassin's Creed Valhalla is The Ultimate Assassin's Creed experience that combines elements from past and from more recent games while adding some new flavor. Strong recommendation, specially after patch 1.0.4.

    Seems to be one of those games i will never stop playing, just like i still play gta 5 single-player from time to time or AC Black Flag. AC Valhalla is very likely new addition to these games that i never stop playing. It has so much content, most of it is interesting, it's fun, combat is sick, i can tell they really worked on this one. Good job Ubisoft and thank you for not disappointing.

    In a world full of mediocre video games and overhyped story simulators, Ubisoft, out of all companies managed to make one of the best Assassin's Creed games in 2020. What universe is this again?

    Some more patches would help, but overall it runs well and i haven't encountered any bugs, but i'm sure there's stuff to fix still, because it's very big open world. But other than that, it's really good.

    From modern ones easy top 4 - Black Flag, Valhalla, Unity, Origins. Good stuff. But i would like to mention Syndicate because it's so underrated, it's not best, but it's still fun enough and has some really nice graphics at times.

    Norway and England look both incredible. Contrast between them makes both of them special in their own way. I love architecture in England, old bridges, towers, etc. Graphically stunning. Power level goes up really fast, if you actually loot chests and stuff. No grind or bs like that. Well done Ubisoft.

    Power level 100 right now and i can't stop playing, it's way too addictive. Haven't felt like that in very long time, seriously. Ubisoft is complete mystery to me, they can make absolute trash in 2019 and then one of their best games ever in 2020. Hopefully Far Cry 6 will be good as well, looking forward to that.

    Absolutely no bug will justify giving 0/10. That just shows that you never even cared about this game. I wanna see how people start giving "Cyberpunk 2077" - 0/10 scores, because it's obviously going to have bugs.

    Very good Assassin's Creed as expected, trailers didn't mislead and there's actually way more interesting content than i could have ever expected. So far i have seen three maps, Norway, England and Vinland (North-America). There's this "dream-world" where you meet all the gods, that's also really cool. Hyped for Ireland and Paris DLC's.

    Best Assassin’s Creed yet. Such a well balanced, fun game with a great story. All the best aspects of the franchise here. Plus the game is gorgeous. This is a must play.

    O jogo é muito bom, com ótimos gráficos, boa jogabilidade e um mundo aberto muito legal de explorar. Muito bem feito, é o melhor jogo da Ubisoft até o momento. O jogo é muito bem ambientado e a história do jogo é bem roteirizada.

    Another amazing new product from the Assassin series that will take a lot of time to play. A good combination of ships from different cities and the story, including a lot of other missions. I've been stuck for 60 hours but I'm still a long way off...

    Very good game, finally people found out that Cyberpunk 2077 is buggier than this game ever was. Who could have known? Before that everyone acted like "Cyberpunk 2077" will be perfect and Valhalla having few bugs is end of the world. Who's laughing now?

    Amazing game that has Four huge maps (Norway, England (biggest of them all), North-America and "Dream World". They will also add Ireland later. Really good game, specially compared to other trash that has come out in 2020.

    After playing it nearly 60 hours i can say that it's very nice game. Like seriously. Whoever is giving it low scores is just afraid that "Cyberhype 2077" gets less attention. I personally like both games, but i just hate when something is extremely overhyped.

    No it's not! You clearly haven't even played it. Good luck with your Cyberbug 2077, because Rockstar made better open world city in 2008 and that was GTA 4. Assassin's Creed Valhalla has tons of new elements, better graphics than last games, good story etc. Your "copy paste" narrative doesn't work here, nice try. Unlike you, i have played every Assassin's Creed since

    This is best Ubisoft game in 3 years. I can't believe they delivered so well this time. Odyssey was big disappointment to me, so i wasn't expecting much. Yeah it had some bugs, but ones that annoyed me got fixed with patch 1.0.4. Apparently Cyberpunk 2077 is even buggier, so whoever whines about Valhalla bugs is just hypocrite at this point.

    Seems like Cyberpunk 2077 didn't live up to expectations. I watched some gameplay and nothing looked extremely new or interesting. More like same old, same old. Bough AC Valhalla instead and so far it's really fun. Of course AC Valhalla isn't anything new either, but at least it's fun and less buggy unlike Cyberpunk 2077.

And yes PC version is "okay", but PS4 and Xbox One versions (versions that will sell the most)? These look awful and are extremely buggy. Even PC version is buggy. Gonna wait until 2022 to play it. Until then i can enjoy Valhalla. Expand

    Thank god i found Gamespot review for Cyberpunk 2077, they literally gave Cyberpunk 2077 lower score than Valhalla. Cyberpunk must be really buggy, because 7/10 is pretty low score for game that has been in development over 7 years. So as of right now i bought Valhalla and so far it's pretty nice. Maybe trying Cyberpunk 2077 in 2021 when they finally fix the game.

    Assassin's Creed Valhalla is nice game that takes place in 800s Norway and England. Graphically one of the best of 2020, story is solid, combat is very brutal.

    Cyberpunk fanboys are absolutely pathetic. Valhalla and many other actually good games from past 4 years got so much hate because they had few bugs (not even comparable how buggy Cyberpunk is on Ps4 and even on PC). But now when everyone knows that Cyberpunk is buggy mess, every fanboy tries to act like "it's just fine". Pathetic. It's top level hypocrisy!
    Cyberpunk is nothing new or

    Cyberpunk is nothing new or nothing special anyway. It's literally mixture of Skyrim and GTA V, absolute wannabe with worse world details than GTA 4 from 2008.
    I'm extremely disappointed in Cyberpunk 2077 PS4 (PC as well) performance and bugs and very soon millions of other people will be as well. Cyberpunk fanboys always whined about other games when they had any bugs at launch and acted like "Cyberpunk 2077 will be this "Absolute Next-Gen miracle". It's time for reality check i guess. All it proves is that sheep will follow basically anything that gets popularity and likes.

    Ubisoft has lots of hits and misses and that's because they make so many games.
    But for almost every miss they have at least two hits.
    Ubisoft hits : Far Cry 3 (2012) , Far Cry 4 (2014), Watch_Dogs (2014) (PC Version, but PS4/Xbox One versions look decent as well), AC 4: Black Flag, AC Origins (2017), AC Valhalla (2020), Immortals: Fenyx Rising (2020), AC Unity (2014) (PC Version

    Ubisoft Fails: The Division (2016), Ghost Recon Breakpoint (2019), Watch Dogs: Legion (2020) If DLC and Online turn out to be REALLY good, it can go to "Decent category, right now it's too bland), Assassin's Creed 3 (2012), Heroes of might and magic VI (2011)

    Of course they have more games, but i tried to mention mix of modern and older games. My point stands that they have made some really good and even decent stuff. Valhalla easily belongs to "Ubisoft hits" category.

    There are far fewer cookie-cutter outposts than in previous AC’s, and most sidequests now offer an interesting story, sometimes even with a less-than-obvious solution. While some anti-grind measures have backfired, Ubisoft is on the right track. [Issue#250, page 56]

    Assassins Creed Valhalla is a wonderful addition to the AC franchise. It manages to avoid the tropes that became overplayed and focuses on a small well structured story. The fighting mechanics are enjoyable and offer many choices to fit different playing styles. There are a significant amount of bugs and the AI is underwhelming at times. But it's still another step in the right direction for Ubisoft.

    When Valhalla is at its best, it evolves series mechanics. And when you’re cruising down river, about to blow your raiding horn, there’s nothing quite like it. [Issue#183, p.71]
