During the Future Games Show, Ubisoft revealed new gameplay videos for both Assassin’s Creed Valhalla and Watch Dogs Legion. These two games will release later this year on the PC, so be sure to watch these gameplay videos after the jump.
Assassin’s Creed Valhalla brings players to a dynamic and beautiful open world set against the brutal backdrop of England’s Dark Ages. Players can explore a dynamic and beautiful open world set against the brutal backdrop of England’s Dark Ages. Players will raid their enemies, grow their settlement, and build their political power in their quest to earn their place among the gods in Valhalla.
Furthermore, players will launch massive assaults against Saxon troops and fortresses throughout England. Players will lead their clan in surprise attacks from their longship and pillage enemy territories to bring riches and resources back to their people.
On the other hand, Watch Dogs Legion is a new open-world game in which players can play as anyone. Players can build a team with a huge range of characters to choose from, all bringing their own unique abilities. Players can also customize their Legion with enhanced gadgets, unique outfits and iconic masks.
In Watch Dogs: Legion, DedSec, a secret underground resistance, is being blamed for a number of attacks in London. Your mission is to rebuild DedSec to fight back against those who wish to keep London oppressed. You will continue to meet colorful characters along the way – both villains and allies – in your fight for London.
Assassin’s Creed Valhalla releases on November 17th. Watch Dogs Legion will release on October 29th.
Enjoy!

Will skip both of these trash games and wait to see how much they destroy the prince of Persia remaster
this is ludicrous!
Is it just me, or even you guys think that this whole Assassin’s Creed franchise has come too far, and it needs a break ?
It has been the same copy/paste formula in AC, and I think both AC1 and AC2 still remain the best Assassin’s Creed game in this entire series/franchise. After that everything went down the drain, topsy-turvy !
Too much grinding ? SJW stuff/propaganda more like ?

Edit: Even AC: Black Flag was pretty good imo.
If you go back and play the first game it actually isn’t very good. You do the same 3 things until the end of the game.
It was more like a prototype/tech demo than anything else, the “real” game was 2. But the first one has a pretty good story, and interesting protagonist. It was very fundational in all sense.
All games have to set a foundation and see if it is successful first. Then they can invest more money and improve upon them. The first Uncharted is another example of this.
I haven’t played the first one though, just heard it from other gamers. Only played AC2, AC3, and BLACK FLAG, lol.
The first one emphasized stealth more. You could enter towns amongst groups of people.

BLACK FLAG is pretty good though, give it a shot.
The water in that game is really impressive imo.
Indeed.
They are just making these games for the sake of making them. They are on autopilot now. The main story was told and now they are just treating it like Disney Star Wars. They are just making them for money. There is no passion or care for the story anymore.
An issue of a Batman comic book moves the plot along more than an entire Assassin’s Creed game will.
The last 2 games should be spinoffs of that For Honor game, they fit more in there
The series lost it identity and focus. Now they are just generic third person action RPG’s with barely any care in historical resemblance to reality (not even accuracy at this point), which was the hook of the whole franchise. Early games felt grounded, to the point that they removed a crossbow in the first game (you still can see it in the CGI intro) because it wasnt time accurate. Now you have your character doing superhero attacks fighting mythological creatures.
At least Origins had a fair justification for something like that…Odyssey went nuts.
Exploring historical time periods was a huge draw for me but now it just seems like it is window dressing and does not really factor into the game very much.
Same, being a virtual tourist in different periods (the peak was the Renaissance for me, my favorite period happens to have one of the best games in the series too :p) was the appeal for me too, granted that aspect still exists, but lost the focus like you said…the open world, huge regional areas over a specific single city/couple of cities (Brotherhood, Unity) is a nono for me (the series was always about urban/social “stealth”, modern Hitman games do a better job at that recently)
While the main issue in AC Odyssey was the boring grindfest on a huge map (the slow progression system was made to force people to buy the mtx EXP boosts), AC Valhalla’s problem seems to be on the narrative side, I find it strange that the protagonists of this game are the invading force. I think it would have been more interesting to play on the english side.
As for Watch_Dogs 3, Ubisoft has turned the franchise into an agitprop to appeal to a new audience.
I thought UNITY was more popular for its Graphics ?
Indeed. COD franchise is also ruined. For me the Best COD games till date in this entire franchise, are these titles.. Even Black Ops 1/2 are bit okay, but these 3 classic games remain my favorite.

good games are dead, gone, never coming back.
Indeed. The gaming industry is kind of doomed to be very honest ! Hard to find good immersive, emotional, and story-driven Single Player games.
Also, this whole Battle Royale/BR hype and craze has made the community even mad. Kids are just jumping on this BR bandwagon like anything, and can you imagine these Games actually sell Millions and Millions, way ahead of other games ! They sell like hot cakes, so why would devs/publishers bother to focus on the Single Player part, when the cash/$$$ comes flowing from this BR mode ?
Apart from that, we have this always-online BS feature, along with the cancerous DENUVO, which makes things even worse for LEGIT customers. We can’t play Ubisoft’s Division 2 without a constant internet connection.
There are more games similar to ‘The Division’, which require an internet connection. MP/online/BR games are becoming a common trend these days, and the Quality of the games has gone down the drain.
I like you sir!
Division 1/2 are multiplayer-first games. Of course they would need an internet connection. Poor choice of example.
They are not the usual MP/online games though, since they have a story, along with objectives.
Played from a third-person perspective, the game is a cover-based third-person shooter with up to four players being able to complete missions together.
That’s why I told they made this Game always-online, or co-op, when they could have easily chosen not to do this. Because I heard you can even play this game solo ?
If true, then why implement the always-online feature ? It is clearly evident that these games do have a story/PLOT as well.

You can choose to play the missions solo, but there are always other people in the “social hub” spaces. Just like in Destiny 1/2. So technically it’s a multiplayer-only game. It has a solo mode on top of that, but it’s not a primary focus. Also there’s the Dark Zone, which is PvP only. Along with raids which require teammates. So if you’re doing only solo, you wouldn’t be able to gain access to a lot of content either way.
Thanks for the info !
AC needs complete change,from management to developers a fresh new look, if they are to make a good game, as it stands now this is just a LGBT Soy mess
Its obvious that Odyssey was clearly influenced by 300 similar to how Valhalla is just as inspired by the Vikings tv show, its just that I’d be annoyed if they tried to pretend theirs no influence with the show like how they did with Odyssey and 300.
The first “Watch Dogs” was great.After the “swag-hipster-teen-SJW-LGTBQWEN&*Trans” propaganda,that was WD 2, i’m off the franchise.AC Odyssey was weak and this time i’m waiting several months for Valhalla….And i have bought every Collector’s Edition of AC games,but not this,never this.
This game is so cringy hahahahahahha
The combat in this game looks even worse than Odyssey which is impressive considering 90% of odyssey consists of spartan kicking.
In fact, I’ll say it – Hellblade even had better combat than th is and it only had 3 or 4 possible moves.
This new AC looks so good. Damn!
