Assassin’s Creed Valhalla revolves around Eivor, a Viking warrior from Norway who invades shattered ninth century England with his clan to conquer land and establish a settlement. Ubisoft points to the presence of RPG mechanisms that allow choices during battles and conversations to influence your further path in the game.

In the game, players can customize and expand their settlement to include barracks, a blacksmith shop, and a tattoo shop. In addition, you can launch raids and surprise attacks on Saxon armies and fortresses, deploying Viking mercenaries created by you or created by other players.

Ubisoft announced the game on Wednesday. The game comes from Ubisoft Montréal but a total of fourteen different studios around the world worked on Assassin’s Creed Valhalla.
