    Its not really assassin game, however its much better than origin and odyssey. Also new mechanics, great world, story and armor sets.

    Is it a good game? Well, it's decent.
    Is it something new? Absolutely no, everything is safe.
    The game is ok to play, but oh-god, it's so boring after 20 hours. Like, you are doing the same things over and over and over. The problem is they are not fed-ex quests, it's the main story.
    So even if the game looks good, the boredom I got is a no-go for me here.

    La historia del juego es muy buena, el mapa es enorme y las actualizaciones que ha ido recibiendo el juego lo ha hecho mejorar poco a poco. Un gran juego al que jugar decenas de horas si te gusta explorar y perderte por los mapas de los juegos.

    Very disappointed. Graphics are phenomenal, the story is OK too, but the steering is SO BAD - especially when you have just played Ghost of Tsushima - where it feels a lot more dynamic. In AC Valhalla, it is too stiff and feels like a classic game: When you dodge an attack e.g., the character throws himself 4 metres to the side.

    Even Odyssey was miles better to play.

    You are in for the long haul but it's an enjoyable time. Expect around 100 hrs game time for the average player.

    1. Extremely vast open world that consists of at least 4 different maps while still not counting DLC 2. Rendered beautifully on Next-gen 3. Almost non existent loading times is unbelievable on such a vast game 4. Lots of things to collect, explore and quests to tackle 5.

    3. Eivor is slow compared to protagonists in previous AC games

    The rest of the game is a bloated mess of a game, full of characters I couldn't care less about, a combat system that simultaneously makes the player feel like a superhuman and bored as Sh*t as the enemies are either weak ass mulch for your axe or a big old health sponge.
    I haven't skipped so many cutscenes in a game for a while, I would happily never talk to another NPC in this game again.
    I played this game during a free weekend and I wanted to like this game, but I had to force myself to play the game for most of the time I played it. I couldn't bring myself to play it long enough to complete the first main settlement takeover, because it was a chore to get through.
    On top of the trash fire that this game has become, it has the gaol to charge full price And has over £200 of microtransactions, it's INSANE that this is the state of triple-A games nowadays.
    It's fallen SO far from what it used to be, it's laughable and ungodly frustrating.

    CLEARLY the best AC yet. Gameplay is tweaked, everything is very close to Odyssey but improved!
    Loved the open world, the freedom to take on different areas of England, going to Ireland, France and other parts in Dlcs (recommend getting them) and the Norse lore to that. Well done Ubisoft!

    uh-oh, "where are cities, i hate forests blah blah blah". Did you even play previous games? Assassin's Creed 4 had huge map, with lots of locations. Origins was mostly just desert. Odyssey has zero parkour (Valhalla has way more, in comparison at least). Over half of AC 3 map was just forests. There have been so many different kind of locations in AC series over past 10 years, yet some people are acting like Valhalla is first Assassin's Creed ever to have huge map, or have forest areas or whatever else these haters will find issue with.

    Truth is Valhalla does parkour better than both Odyssey and Origins. Has better combination of huge forests and Cities, than AC 3. New York was absolutely pathetic in AC 3, in Valhalla you can climb and parkour way more in London + forest areas/mountains are so much better and have more variation than AC 3. Valhalla does so many similar things, that previous games have done and many of them better than last few games, yet somehow now this series is dying? Get out of here with that nonsense. I shouldn't even mention that it's selling better than Origins or Odyssey, but i will, will mention that just to make these haters even angrier.

    Either way, from now on I REFUSE to consider these Valhalla haters as an actual Assassin's Creed fans, they simply aren't. So basically whenever i meet someone who claims to like AC series, my first question will always be - DO YOU LIKE VALHALLA and if the answer is NO, then i will just walk away. I refuse to interact with these losers for rest of my life. I'm just done!

    These haters seem to be combination of people who actually never even cared for this series and those who only care about AC 1. Either way Black Flag is great, Unity is great, Syndicate is great, Origins is great and Valhalla is great. I don't even care, if Odyssey exists, it's just meaningless grind fest and AC 3 is just awful.

    This game has incredible atmosphere and music. I literally spent over 30 minutes just climbing the walls of London and enjoying the sunset. There are many incredible looking locations in this game. If you go into walking mode, some of the best music pieces of AC series history, start playing.

    I have seen that some are trying to point out, that this game is empty, that's not true at all.

    I have seen that some are trying to point out, that this game is empty, that's not true at all. It has just enough things to explore, but some of the empty areas are very much intentional. Red Dead Redemption 2 was exactly the same way. There are areas that have interesting stuff and then there are areas of just nature, beaches, forests etc. After all it's trying to be realistic presentation of 800s Norway and England. It would be awful, if behind every corner was some monster to fight with or gang of soldiers. That's one of the reasons why Odyssey failed, it had too much unnecessary content and thankfully Valhalla fixes that mistake.

    Story in this game isn't sadly strongest, but it's not bad either. Just somewhere in between. Some missions are very fun, some are very basic and even boring. For example i was way more interested in Black Flag's story. But to look at this game as a complete package, it's still very nice and overall game design/open world design is way better than last two entries.

    I have no idea where AC is going next or what's happening with this series, but if Valhalla happens to be last decent AC, then at least this series ended on positive note.

    My one complaint is every once in a while I experience a game breaking bug and I have to replay a section over again. Over a year into the game I feel like this maybe shouldn't be happening? I've played older and newer games that don't have this issue.

    I'm also not a huge fan of an over crowded map but this is more of a personal preference than something inherently wrong with the game.

    Amazing game, after last update there is absolutely no excuse for anyone to hate this game, because Ubisoft has done so much. They added new difficulty option, so you can play exactly like old games and assassinate even highest level enemies with one hit. Anyone who still hates on this game from now on, is just whiny loser who wants attention.

    It blows my mind that some people are saying that Odyssey was better AC games than Valhalla. Makes zero sense. If you like Odyssey more as a game, fine, good for you. But Valhalla is better AC game and overall i would say better game in general.

Odyssey had very bad story, extremely boring, pointless rpg system that made all enemies extremely strong (Valhalla completely removed that). Thanks to that exploring in Odyssey was awful, because high level enemies killed you everywhere unless you were high level yourself. That doesn't happen in Valhalla, in Valhalla you can assasinate anyone with one hit and thanks to that explore the whole world without worry of getting killed. Also, i like that Valhalla has better music and more serious tone than Odyssey, Odyssey was too light-hearted and not in a Syndicate way (Syndicate was perfect mix of serious and lighthearted), but Odyssey does it in cringe way. Most dialogue in Odyssey is just bad writing. Valhalla is more serious, more focused and Norway-England is in general more interesting setting than Greece could ever be anyway. Expand

    I'm a little torn by this game. The vikings were great, Eivor was great, the combat and exploration was great. I loved the opening few hours, and the closing few hours. The whole middle section of the game really drags; I think they just made it too long.

I think it could have been better if the whole game had been set in Norway, because the sections of the game set there were FAR more interesting. I also hated the male/female Eivor choice. It was so obviously just their way of giving butthurt male players an option to play as a male, instead of Ubisoft just giving us a sole female protagonist for once.
    In Odyssey, it made sense; whoever you didn't pick still featured in the game as the antagonist, and it works very very well. Male Eivor had no place in this game, considering female Eivor was the canon, and the male one is stuffed into this Valhalla story that has NO place in the game. No hate to the voice actor of course! Just a cowardly choice by Ubisoft.

    Il gioco si presenta come un misto tra Origins e Odyssey, e nel complesso funziona molto bene. Si apprezza notevolmente il comparto grafico e audio, anche e soprattutto nelle cinematic. La storia tende ad essere tediosa in alcuni punti della trama, semplicemente a causa dei troppi personaggio un po' alla Got, ma alla fine si fa apprezzare bene grazie ad alcune scelte interessanti di trama!

Like what did some of these people expect from Valhalla? To go back to Assassin's Creed Revelations? Are you kidding me? They would NEVER do that. Never. Most people (all the gamers who never cared about Ezio) started to care about AC when 4th one came out. That huge map, pirate theme and 1715 era was actually interesting. I love how none of these Valhalla haters never mention Black Flag, because it would automatically destroy every argument they possible could have. They know that people like Black Flag. Odyssey was a joke and everyone knows that. Valhalla was step in right direction and that direction was never going to be going back to anything that happened before Black Flag. Assassin's Creed is important and popular because of three games, these are - Black Flag (best map and main character), Unity - (best graphics and parkour) and Origins (it was different from previous ones). So yeah, these are the three options Ubisoft has. They will never go back to AC 1 style and you guys know why? Because it wouldn't sell even half that Valhalla did, that's why. AC 1 is outdated and boring and it never that good anyway, so it's literally time to move on. It is very likely they go back to something like Unity / Syndicate, while having some Black Flag elements like you can still have a boat or something. That would be perfect balance, but to go back to AC 1? Never, absolutely never. Expand

    I don't appreciate being offered gay sex every other scene when I clearly made choices in game to play as a straight guy. If you want to make a gay game, do that, and make it clear that's your agenda. It's creepy to sneak it into games you know kids and straights play. Maybe give an option, if people don't pick your preferred gender bender ideology, live with it.

The auto-assigned system for the power works great. The combat feels great while using it. The camera doing combat is good if you chose to take off auto-aim. The auto-aim does work but it's only good for finding enemies quickly. I highly suggest not using it while fighting. The main story for this game is very simple but it feels like a lot of drama which keeps the game very entertaining. There is basically family drama within' each city we help. I love the family drama and betrayal aspect of the stories within' each city. It's nice. The graphics for this game is nice on both modes. The framerate mode does have less fog and the snow looks much better when it's falling on quality mode. Both modes are worth spending hours on.

I got the game Day 1 and did not experience the glitches that other players have noted (I played it using Xbox Series X|S). All around I’d give this a solid 10/10 A+ and highly recommend, especially if you love the Viking Age, Assassin’s Creed, or looking for an RPG done right, that plays like a third person shooter almost (using arrows and medieval melee weapons though).

This is not what the fans of the series meant when they said that they wanted some change. We wanted improvements on the mechanics that the previous AC games had. You know the mechanics that made people fall in love with the AC series in the first place? not a hack and slash "RPG wannabe" game where enemies barely react to your attacks. We don’t want a bad Witcher 3 clone every year set in another part of the world...there are literally 2 Assassin’s in this “Assassin’s Creed” game, that’s 2 more than there were in Odyssey but even that aspect of the game is just pointless because all they do is act like a deposit box for a collectible. Don't waste your money! The gear that you unlock throughout the game looks okay but wait until you see what they have for sale in their store page, store gear looks miles better when compared to what you unlock by just playing the game. They clearly put more effort into the store gear than they do on unlockables. The level of greediness, to sell a game for $60-$70 and still manipulate people into buying stuff from your store by putting the best looking gear in there. They built up the AC series just to milk the player-base but hey we saw what happened to the recent COD and BF 2042 games. At this rate, Assassins Creeds fall is inevitable and I can't wait to be there when the sales drop and players decide that they had enough of your bs schemes.

Play the first six or so games and they feel like AC games but this is so far from it.

    I don't know what this game is but it isn't an AC game. Finish the series and call this the Battle Through Time series or something cause slapping on the AC badge on this isn't fooling me.

    But if I'm to judge this on its own it looks fantastic and the story isn't half bad. The combat isn't great and the leveling up systems are terrible. Certain areas require you to be at a power of 90 when you could only be at a power of maybe 25 if you were only doing story missions. The game requires you to go around doing random repetitive tasks to move through the game. That's crap.

    This game requires you to loose your mind doing repetitive crap or for you to be crazy enough to pay for an XP boost on top of your 80 euro game. Seriously!

    I think the AC franchise is done. I'm done with it. I'm giving this a four. Some will love it but I'm bothered by it. Damn micro transactions.

Yes it is! Deal with it!

    Now it's solid open-world AC game, but sadly it's not better than Black Flag. I just wish story/mission design was more interesting or unique. Black Flag had all kinds of unique mission designs and also story was better. In Valhalla missions aren't that interesting, but there's still many fun ones. But true star of Valhalla is it's open world and freedom to do whatever you feel like. That's what was missing from AC 1 for me, because these games can simply be so much more than just generic assassination games. AC is not and should not be Hitman. AC should be ALWAYS compared to games like GTA or Red Dead Redemption. You can do so much more in these games than just the basic story stuff and that same logic should apply to AC and most people seem to understand that. It seems to be minority who complains that AC is not so linear anymore. Most people seem to like that freedom and more activities. This open world is there for a reason! Might as well fill that open world with content and that's what Ubisoft did in both Black Flag and Valhalla, even Unity and Syndicate. That is the right direction.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. 80 HEURES!!!! Juste pour finir la quête principale et de m'occuper de quelques annexes. La narration est beaucoup trop dilué, en gros pour faire avancer l'histoire, il faut impérativement aider une région, dans l'ordre que l'on souhaite, le problème c'est qu'on se concentre beaucoup plus sur l'histoire de chacune des régions que sur la Trame principale qui nous est distillé de temps a autre a travers 80 heures!!! je ne vais pas parler du présent, a part a la toute fin du jeu ou on nous tease clairement quelque chose de gros pour la suite!!

    Le problème de ce jeu, c'est que l'ordre des assassins est encore une fois au second plan, beaucoup trop de choses a faire qui n'ont pas necessairement d'utilité, les quetes secondaires sont bien intégrer au jeu mais malheureusement, une fois que vous avec lancer une quete annexe, vous êtes quasi dans l'obligation de la terminer sur le champ, car vous n'aurez aucune info écrite que ce soit dans le HUD ou dans le journal de quêtes, si vous avez décider de stopper votre partie pour reprendre plus tard, vous n'aurez aucun moyen (si ce n'est internet) de savoir a quoi consister votre mission annexe que vous aviez enclencher précédemment.

    Pour les point positifs, je note l'ambiance encore une fois UBI sais très bien gérer ca, la map est plutôt belle, même si on aura tendance a traverser de longues plaines sans âme qui vive, la encore la map n'est pas suffisamment bien rempli. Les combats sont vraiment très bon, on prend un certain plaisir, a balancer quelques exécutions par-ci par la.

    En définitive cette Assassin's creed est clairement pour moi l''un des moins bon de la saga, la formule initier par Origins est ici pousser a son paroxysme, et on se retrouve avec beaucoup trop de choses a faire, et pour la plupart pas très intéressante!!

The game is long, grindy, mediocre, and a downgrade in every conceivable way from Odyssey. The story line is convoluted, and it makes me yearn for the days of Desmond Miles, Arno Dorian, and Jacob and Evie Frye. The story is so bad that I routinely would drop the game just to go back to old AC games to see if I was dreaming about the great characters and story (Spoiler Alert: I was not). Parkour is easily the worst it's ever been, in Unity we had the most stylish and cool parkour we've seen in the AC franchise. Syndicate was a downgrade, but it was passable. Origins and Odyssey had bad parkour, some of the worst in the entire franchise, and Valhalla does not improve on their already low starting point in origins in the parkour standard. Even the combat is lackluster, in origins you had great combat since the environment and presentation was so good, along with the bar system. Odyssey had even better combat as it introduced these crazy abilities which spiced things up. Valhalla adds a stamina bar, and that's it. Every single encounter can be cheesed from a range with the exception of 4 off the top of my head. The game goes on for way too long. I cannot recommend this game to anybody. It's a horrible game.

    A lot of reviews seem to praise the sound which makes me seriously wonder if they've played the game themselves, Valhalla highlights a problem that's been present for most AC games but became so much more noticeable, that being the awful dialogue quality, it's honestly baffling how this makes it though QA ever time but it sounds like all dialogue was recorded in a cave, even when you're out in the open, it's very distracting and sounds like you're listening to a movie though a tin can on a string.

    I don't like ubisoft games at all, and i don't really like their politics. But this game is really interesting.

    There are two competing experiences here: that as as Assassin, and that as a Viking, that either on its own feels like it might have been a triumph and better than this good but not great Assass-king hybrid we have.

    Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla effortlessly plants its banner as the best open world RPG available for the new consoles. This Viking epic flexes its gore-soaked, tattooed muscles when it comes to world-building, and medieval England wows with its enchanting untamed vistas. It’s also portioned out at a steady pace and, if not for the repetitive, limited combat, Valhalla could have ranked even higher among our favourite games in the series.

    Is Assassin’s Creed Valhalla the best entry in the series yet? Some would be tempted to say so. While the map size might overwhelm some players, it remains an easy game to mainline with the right navigation mode turned on. In fact, the quick load times help to make this an even easier task than in previous generations. This is an iteration of Assassin’s Creed that has a bit of everything from the previous games, as refined as we have seen to date.
