Ubisoft is gearing up for a big announcement later today. According to reports, this announcement will be about the next Assassin’s Creed game. And from the looks of it, the title for this Assassin’s Creed game will be Assassin’s Creed Valhalla.
As we can clearly see below, Gandi.net has registered the “Assassin’s Creed Valhalla” domain. Now in case you’re wondering, Gandi.net is the company that registers all of Ubisoft’s games. So yeah, this appears to be the title for the next AC game.
Now as we’ve already reported, this new Assassin’s Creed game will be a cross-gen release, meaning that it will come out on both current and next-gen platforms. This Assassin’s Creed game was previously known as Assassin’s Creed Ragnarok. However, and as industry insider ZhugeEX claimed, that was never its final/actual title.
Ubisoft will most likely officially reveal this new Assassin’s Creed game in a couple of hours. As such, we’ll be sure to update this article once we get more details about it. However, I strongly suggest tempering your expectations. My guess is that Ubisoft will reveal the game’s title alongside a teaser trailer. So yeah, don’t expect a gameplay trailer or a next-gen showcase video.
Stay tuned for more!

This was probably slated for an e3 reveal and since that isn’t happening anymore. I feel like we might actually get a full blown reveal. Buuuuut the way companies like to do things… it will most likely be a 10second teaser trailer telling you to tune in 10days away to watch the full blown 60second teaser full of cgi and a whole 1 second cut away of gameplay. I feel like ubi is gonna use this to have it’s own online press conference to show all the games they been reworking aka watchdogs, new splinter cell and some other stuff. the return of ubi starts today!
STEAM or GTFO
Even if they bring it to steam they’ll still force uplay
cant wait to see how it will have some black guy saying “our viking ancestors” like that scandinavian airlines ad, WE WUZ VIKINGZ AND SHEEET, also how all the leaders will be STRONK WAMMEN.
Black vikings and ugly womyn warriors are pretty much guaranteed, what other reason could they possibly have to choose a setting as white as medieval Scandinavia for a company as pozzed as Ubisoy?
messing with scandinavian countries is going to piss a lot of incels from south european countries and white wannabe countries, i don’t know if ubisoft is that risk seeking or not.
i wanted a game a ac game set in japan, then i realized if ubisoft makes it, they gonna “westernize it” and ruin it. Then japanesse westaboos devs are gonna play it and copy it and make japanese games like it.
So no.
If it’s another AC with rpg and supernatural elements like the last two titles, I’ll skip ubisoft entirely next-gen, unless they reveal a decent PoP or SC
Prepare for get disapointed.
I am
…however, I am still cautiously optimistic about the upcoming changes at Ubisoft and I’d very much like to be pleasantly surprised by the final reveal. the previous editorial team and the policies at Ubisoft have undergone changes as a means of revitalising their IPs which I am afraid might be too late now. this new AC will be a make-or-break title not just for the franchise but also for Ubisoft themselves.
lame name and probably lame gameplay just like origins and odyssey.
It better have plenty of microtransactions or I’m not buying the game
Number 29. 12 major game and 17 official spin offs.
Really interested in this. Mainly to see if they made some changes to gameplay.
hopefully the main character is a hot guy with lots of showing outfits. not that i’m into men, i’m just saying this because it would be easier to roleplay.
I’m a hot guy with nice outfits ???????????
Just joking don’t take it personal
oh shut the fck up.
Wish they went back to historical setting instead of fantasy with historical flavor

i dont even want to know.
I am certain they chose this particular setting not for the sake of variety or innovation but purely for the mythology and the supernatural elements associated with it so that they can sell more DLC and keep people playing the game mindlessly for hours.
Yeah it’s Odyssey all over again…
let’s not forget it started with Origins
Even tho i’m not interested in the series anymore, Origins felt more like an evolution of the classic AC formula to a more RPG one, rather than a complete rework and a change of genre that Odyssey was, but IMO both of them lost their personality
And don’t forget how they changed the story in one of the DLCs because of a straight relationship snowflakes whined about…
where is this picture from?
Pretty sure we are going to find a character with this hair cut:

That’s in the starter pack HAHA

If you didn’t see the official artwork, then you guessed correctly!

I think they are consciously imitating the mood and the looks of the characters on Vikings, the TV series. for instance the female warrior depicted here resembles Lagertha from the show. the story might even try the same plot (based on the key art here) because the show has a massive following and is popular for a reason which is mainly its story and characters
boring. far cry 6 or far cry 3 prequel pls?
Strange way to spell Blood Dragon.
there is one being developed right now.
If it’s another AC with huge interesting open world, super graphics and gameplay with lot of cool rpg elements I will pass
Ashraf Ismail(black flag & origins) creative director of this game so i think it will be good.
Well I Liked black flag a bit so that is good news
and he went on to make Origins, because Ubisoft needed him to.
given the chance, I bet he would have made the game more immersive without the RPG elements and with better visuals even, like Black Flag. but game development nowadays is hardly about games anymore, it’s about appealing to all sorts of people who have their own personal issues and agendas because social media has made it possible for people to be more individualistic than ever and these studios long for and crave the attention and approval of these communities because that’s what it takes to be popular and accepted, and to remain afloat now.
Well said. As much as I want Valhalla to be a good game i’m not going to be holding my breath, I haven’t enjoyed an Ubi game in some time.
Creatively bankrupt crap. You deserve it, AC fans. You’ve been eating sh*t for years.
Not only was origins bad, we at least have an idea of how low your bar is. With a bar that low, you haven’t nothing relevant to say.
Another full mythology action RPG just like Oddysey…also including two playable character with bulky muscle wammen as one of character plus lack of skimpy armor plus a gai+lez npc plus newly founded macrotransaction (because microtransaction is not enough for Ubisoft)…
Waste off a great Norse mythology. Assasins Creed franchise need to die. SHM, tired off this generic games.
Ubisoft can go f* themselves, it’s just another Odyssey with even bigger map and even more time wasting quests and endless markers brushed with Vikings Theme on top
Agreed! I’d be happier with a shorter and less grindy game overall from them.
Who cares
if they announce that the world is even bigger then count me out. not into these insanely huge maps just to run point a to b over and over to kill time. don’t give me a huge spaced out empty world. i’ll gladly take a decent one that is detailed and well made. also hope there is no boats or water gameplay. that stuff is not fun at all
OMG no… they are gonna butcher the Norse mythology! no one cares bout the crappy RPG styled gameplay, go back to your roots, stop copying what others do! UBISOFT has no business in developing RPG games, leave that to Bethesda & CDProjekt Red! The game will literally be a Norse mythology MOD for Odyssey! frankly speaking, Ubisoft should put an hold to this franchise & look into something new, maybe revive Prince of Persia
THANK YOU !
exactly !
Never going to happen Ubi is stuck in mediocre at best cycle, Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry, Watch_Dog, The Crew… Change skin & Repeat… And Ubi Customers: let’s hope this time it’s going to be better… Did i ever told you the definition of insanity… Irony.
Hopefully we can choose to play with female character as well.
hopefully they won’t force us to pick between two characters
I’d rather play as either a male or a female, because that way I know it will offer a more coherent story and a sense of attachment, the voice acting won’t be inconsistent, and they won’t have to focus on various intercourse possibilities for each character (so as to appeal to different tastes) therefore they will spend more time actually polishing the game.
GTA V’s approach however was an exception because having the trio was an integral part of the story and intrinsic to the gameplay mechanics that Rockstar was trying to incorporate into the game. as opposed to the afterthought that was Odyssey’s duo
I don’t get all the hate. Loved Origins and Odyssey, very excited for this, Ubisoft knocked it out of the park with the last 2 releases. Except for the annoying DRM
They are good games, not good AC games
I think the name is official now.
