Assassin’s Creed Valhalla 30 Minutes of Gameplay, Launches November 17

Ubisoft have revealed new gameplay and a new release date for Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, during their Ubisoft Forward presentation.

The new gameplay trailer gives us our first look at the female protagonist (also called Eivor), along with raiding, combat, and establishing and building settlements.


We also see the enemies you will encounter, stealth, exploration, hunting and foraging, assaults on keeps and castles, and how Norse mythology plays into the game.

You can find the gameplay overview trailer and more below.

You can find the full rundown (via the official website) below.


BUILD YOUR OWN VIKING LEGEND
Become Eivor, a Viking raider raised to be a fearless warrior, and lead your clan from icy desolation in Norway to a new home amid the lush farmlands of ninth-century England. Find your settlement and conquer this hostile land by any means to earn a place in Valhalla.

England in the age of the Vikings is a fractured nation of petty lords and warring kingdoms. Beneath the chaos lies a rich and untamed land waiting for a new conqueror. Will it be you?

WRITE YOUR VIKING SAGA
Blaze your own path across England with advanced RPG mechanics. Fight brutal battles, lead fiery raids or use strategy and alliances with other leaders to bring victory. Every choice you make in combat and conversation is another step on the path to greatness.

LEAD EPIC RAIDS
Lead a crew of raiders and launch lightning-fast surprise attacks against Saxon armies and fortresses. Claim the riches of your enemies’ lands for your clan and expand your influence far beyond your growing settlement.

ENGAGE IN VISCERAL COMBAT
Unleash the ruthless fighting style of a Viking warrior as you dual-wield axes, swords, or even shields against relentless foes. Decapitate opponents in close-quarters combat, riddle them with arrows, or assassinate them with your Hidden Blade.

GROW YOUR SETTLEMENT
Your clan’s new home grows with your legend. Customise your settlement by building upgradable structures. Unlock new features and quests by constructing a barracks, a blacksmith, a tattoo parlour, and much more.

SHARE YOUR CUSTOM RAIDER
Recruit mercenary Vikings designed by other players or create and customise your own to share online. Sit back and reap the rewards when they fight alongside your friends in their game worlds.

A DARK AGE OPEN WORLD
Sail across the icy North Sea to discover and conquer the broken kingdoms of England. Immerse yourself in activities like hunting and drinking games or engage in traditional Norse competitions like flyting – or, as it’s better known, verbally devastating rivals through the art of the Viking rap battle.


Assassin’s Creed Valhalla launches November 17th on Windows PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and Google Stadia.
