One of the most important elements of any Assassin’s Creed title is obviously the parkour system that the game possesses. With Rift moving away from the more expansive gameplay of recent AC titles, the parkour in particular needs to be engaging and more refined.

That’s not a guarantee it follows this same pattern, but many fans understandably hope so. While many love the open-world Assassin’s Creed games, there’s little reason Ubisoft couldn’t produce them both. If it is a return to form for the franchise, it’ll be interesting to see how it plays out from here. What’s more interesting is that Eurogamer corroborated Schreier’s report, also adding that the game will be set in Baghdad....

However, that’s a long list of changes, and new information about Valhalla is piecemeal and gradual, coming chunks at a time over the last couple of weeks. Thus, rather than going off to hunt down each confirmed or removed feature for Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, here’s a handy compilation of everything all in one place.

Many of these secret areas contain powerful weapons, such as Odin’s mythical spear Gungnir. Others have strong armor locked away or riches sealed in coffers. One of these secret areas is the Camulodunum Bureau and, while it doesn’t have any weapons, it has pretty much everything else a player could want. There is a hood, a Codex Page, and a few treasures that make this secret worth uncovering. RELATED: Assassin’s Creed Valhalla: All Fly Agaric Hallucination Challenge Solutions...

RELATED: Assassin’s Creed Valhalla’s Exact Time Period and Setting Confirmed If Assassin’s Creed Valhalla supports Xbox Series X Smart Delivery, then it is much more likely that Ubisoft’s other, in-development titles will also use it. The developer has confirmed plans to bring Watch Dogs Legion to next-gen consoles, though the game has been delayed with no new release date announced. Fans will likely be very happy to hear that Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, and potentially Watch Dogs Legion, will use Smart Delivery because of how big they are....

There is one aspect of Dragon Age: Inquisition’s plot which made this reveal all the more painful for some players, however. With Assassin’s Creed Valhalla introducing even more RPG elements to the once purely action-adventure series, it could have stood to make its reveal even more powerful by “stealing” this one element from the story of Dragon Age: Inquisition. RELATED: Assassin’s Creed Valhalla: 15 Best Weapons The Twists Of Inquisition Dragon Age: Inquisition and Assassin’s Creed Valhalla essentially end with the same twist, in terms of story structure if not specific details....

The assassination rogue will focus on using Daggers as their main and only weapon choice. This differs from their raid-brothers the Combat Rogues and their swords and axes. This means that they also benefit from low competition from other classes when it comes to weapons. They should get priority when it comes to dagger drops within the raids, as no other raid specs focus on daggers specifically. In contrast to the Subtlety Rogue, the Assassination rogue can still attack from the front even while wielding daggers....

Former Germany forward Muller set up Serge Gnabry to put the reigning Bundesliga champions 2-0 up at the Allianz Arena. It was a 100th assist in Germany’s top flight for the 30-year-old, who has set up more goals than any other player in the competition since Opta started collecting this data in 2004-05. Muller’s former Bayern team-mate Franck Ribery supplied 92, while Gonzalo Castro (67), Dortmund captain Marco Reus (62) and Max Kruse (60) complete the top five....

Named 2017 TS3, the space rock is due to fly past our planet on Tuesday, November 2, at roughly 5:51 a.m. UTC (1:51 a.m. ET). At that time, it’s estimated the asteroid will be moving at a speed of about 22,000 miles per hour—about 30 times faster than the speed of sound. Luckily, the asteroid poses no danger to Earth despite its hulking size and speed. It’s due to make its “close approach” to us on Tuesday—meaning it will reach its nearest point to Earth during its journey around the sun—but it will still be nearly 14 times as far away from us as the moon is....

Bregman matched his career-high in home runs with his 18th and 19th in the Houston Astros’ 6-5 win over the Oakland Athletics on Tuesday. According to the Athletic, Bregman will be the number four seed in the tournament. Bregman joins Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Max Muncy, Chicago Cubs Cubs stars Kyle Schwarber and Javy Baez, and Milwaukee Brewers infielder Jesus Aguilar in the Derby. The 24-year-old was named to his first All-Star Game as a reserve on the heels of an American League (AL) Player of the Month Award in June in which he batted ....

Although McIngvale has yet to see any winnings on his future wagers, he has taken home his fair share of profits from single-game bets on the Astros. According to Action Network’s Darren Rovell, McIngvale has won a total of $1,473,827 on games 3,4 and 5 of the World Series. That amount is more than the $1.29 million he is wagering on Game 6. Mattress Mack first came into the spotlight when he placed a $3....

At one point in the game’s Onderon story, the player will split themselves and their companions into two parties. After completing the first party’s mission, a cutscene will trigger where the Basilisk crashes into Onderon—at this time, every time with no simple workaround, the game will crash. Aspyr recently confirmed this was a known bug in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 on social media, issuing an official statement shortly thereafter....

Black Flag was the fourth in the Assassin’s Creed series, released in 2013. It featured all of the amazing parkour players expect from Assassin’s Creed games and added amazing piracy as well. Rogue served as the prologue to the third game in the series, and was released in 2014. While both games were re-released for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, neither has been available for the Switch. Considering how popular the Assassin’s Creed games have been, even going so far as to spawn an Assassin’s Creed manga series in China, it seemed a little strange that these titles hadn’t been released for the newest generation of Nintendo consoles....

The first DLC for the Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, Wrath of the Druids, adds three new special abilities for players to grab with six total Books of Knowledge.

In regards to gameplay, 2007’s Assassin’s Creed was a familiar game with new technology. Stealth games have been around for generations before this game, with other games like Ubisoft’s own Splinter Cell (for the original Xbox, GameCube and PS2 generation), to the stealth genre’s premiere series, Metal Gear, years before then. RELATED: Assassin’s Creed Odyssey: 10 Most Beautiful Locations, Ranked The main difference between Assassin’s Creed and its stealth game ancestors was the fact that the Altair storyline took place during the Third Crusade as opposed to the modern day....

Franchise fatigue is an understandable factor in anything that lasts so long. Despite the MCU’s grand success, many have likely felt inundated and burned out by the constant influx of content. Sometimes franchise fatigue lasts for some days, a couple of weeks, maybe a few months, or possibly even longer. For Assassin’s Creed, it’s worth noting that it seems to have gone through two major spells of franchise fatigue....

During Gamescom 2018, Ubisoft showed the full world map of Odyssey in its entirety, and it was quickly imaged by another outlet. In the map below, gamers can take a look at the numerous landmasses that will take feature throughout the game’s 30+ hours story. Among these islands are countless enemies, friends, and romantic partners that players can converse with and, for the first time, impact the outcome of the game’s ending with those aforementioned dialogue choices....

Ubisoft tackled a similar dilemma in Origins by adding a then series-first New Game Plus during the game’s post-launch phase, which is something Game Rant can now confirm will feature in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey. When creative director Jonathan Dumont was asked if Odyssey will get a New Game Plus experience, he was quick to confirm that it was coming - although it won’t be ready when the game launches this October:...

When Eivor arrives at Pruvinis, there’s an indication that the fort had already been ransacked, albeit not completely. Weapons are found scattered about the entire fort, leading Eivor to conclude the thieves must have been looking for a specific weapon. That’s when they find a note on a table that references an Ulfberht Sword, one of the new one-handed swords in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla.
