In a Q&A session posted on the Ubisoft US YouTube channel, Ismail dove into specifics about the newest installment in the beloved action-adventure franchise. He began by explaining the combat variations in Assassin’s Creed Origins as compared to the rest of the series. “The biggest change to Assassin’s Creed [Origins] in terms of combat it’s that we’ve drastically changed the paradigm of ‘What is fight?’” Ismail stated. “In previous [Assassin’s Creed games], we used what we call technically a parade animation system, which means when you swing your weapon, the hero and the enemy align, they play an animation together, you wait for the animation to finish and then you continue fighting....

It should be noted that Ubisoft has not publicly commented on Assassin’s Creed Rift at all, so it has never announced a release date. However, it seems that Ubisoft was aiming to get it out in February 2023 before the current fiscal year closes in March, but that is no longer the case.

For those that haven’t kept up with Assassin’s Creed Valhalla’s post launch support, one of the biggest things Ubisoft has done to keep the game fresh is adding in seasonal festivals. During these events, Ravensthorpe gets overhauled with festive decorations, and one corner of the town is turned into a place for merriment. Eivor can compete in a variety of games and challenges in order to earn tokens that the player can then use to get new gear, cosmetics, and the like....

For those that didn’t spend a ton of time reading notes and completing mysteries, there are actually a ton of these kinds of references in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla.

It was first discovered by Twitter user Cristophorus who then decided to extract the whole image of runes for translation. Of course, it’s not like Norse runes is a simple translation to English, so Cristophorus had to enlist the help of the Assassin’s Creed Reddit community, namely u/crimsonfox24 and u/Gapthrosnir. Together, the community was able to decipher the hidden code, and as it turns out, the Assassin’s Creed Valhalla code is from a famous poem attributed to Odin....

However, despite this potential identity confusion in Valhalla, there’s definitely hope for it. With Wrath of the Druids launching on April 29, many details about this DLC are already set in stone, but in this theoretical land of make-believe, there’s a lot a simple DLC could do.

It was recently announced that the Assassin’s Creed Valhalla developers would be slowing down the pace of updates to ensure that they launch with higher quality.
