Assassin’s Creed Valhalla Ultimate Edition Free Download GAMESPACK.NET Assassin’s Creed Valhalla fully embraces the series’ heritage. The 12th major Assassin’s Creed game shows a keen awareness of the history and gameplay innovations of the saga, and it feels like a love letter to the franchise as a whole. This makes the game a far more rewarding experience for longtime fans, though newcomers can still enjoy Valhalla’s combat, emphasis on exploration, and mystery-driven narrative without years of time spent in the Animus. In Valhalla, you once again play as present-day protagonist Layla Hassan, who’s still a bit shaken up after the unfortunate events at the end of Assassin’s Creed Odyssey’s second DLC, The Fate of Atlantis. Understandably ostracized from her old team, she’s now partnered with fellow Assassins Shaun Hastings and Rebecca Crane. The trio find themselves facing the daunting task of needing to save the world, and their only clue as to how is a mysterious message of unknown origin that contains coordinates to a grave. With no other leads, Layla hops into the Animus machine with a DNA sample taken from the skeletal remains, allowing her to relive their life in the distant past. This time she’ll be Eivor, a Viking who lived during the ninth century. The Assassin’s Creed games have traditionally struggled with the modern-day storyline that runs alongside the stories that take place in the past, and Valhalla is no different.

The Season Pass, which grants access to additional story content, including two major expansions and exclusive in-game items

Some of the features of the Ultimate Edition include:

• • • Base game: The Ultimate Edition includes the base game of “Assassin’s Creed Valhalla,” which is an action-adventure video game developed by Ubisoft.
    • Season Pass: The Ultimate Edition comes with the Season Pass, which grants players access to two major expansions and additional content, including new missions and gear.
    • The Legend of Beowulf: This exclusive mission is available only in the Ultimate Edition and allows players to discover the truth behind the legendary monster.
    • Berserker Gear Pack: This pack includes exclusive gear for Eivor, the game’s protagonist, that is inspired by Viking Berserkers.

This pack provides players with a new settlement cosmetic set, including a longhouse, ship cosmetic, settlement decoration, and a pet raven.

This structure works both for and against Valhalla’s story. Once an arc is done, it’s done–certain characters can come back in later arcs, but that very rarely happens. This opens up Valhalla to several different types of storytelling styles as well as different stories. It’s not one large campaign of subsequent events but many events that loosely tie together–it’s like Valhalla is divided into dozens of large-scale side quests. To the game’s benefit, this means that if a specific narrative arc has characters or gameplay you don’t necessarily enjoy–like, oh, I don’t know, searching for some annoyingly hard-to-find environmental clues in order to figure out who amongst your group is a traitor–you know that once the arc is over, you’re likely never going to have to engage with that pocket of England ever again. The story will soon move past that arc and then largely act like it never existed, giving you new characters to meet and mission structures to engage with. However, this works against the game too, as anything you like won’t last either. The biggest detriment of the self-contained arcs is the somewhat shallow supporting cast. Because characters typically only stick around for a few hours, there isn’t much time for development. And where there is any, it’s rushed. I’ve seen a stalwart man who stubbornly maintains that the pagan Danes should be forced to believe in God change his tune after a night of drinking with Eivor and being kidnapped. Now, don’t get me wrong, I can buy into someone changing who they are, but to see your entire set of morals do a 180 in a matter of hours defies belief. YUME

Rapid shifts in perspective and principles like this occur in other places throughout the campaign too, and they’re usually just as unbelievable. Romances, especially, suffer for this. Unlike Odyssey’s Kassandra/the other guy, Eivor can enter into long-term relationships with certain characters, regularly visiting them for dates and smooches. It’s all very shallow, though, and, save for one (which I cannot talk about but holy crap the audacity of it makes it wonderful), they don’t have any meaningful impact on Eivor’s story. Eivor is the one who bucks the trend for Valhalla’s paper-thin characters. We spend nearly 70 hours with her, so she does have a well-written character arc that’s allowed to evolve at a believable pace. Eivor’s primary motivation is to avoid her fate. Though her actual character is already established–she is a brash warrior and quick to anger, but also loyal to her clan, cunning, and a poet at heart–you get to push and prod at her thoughts and actions. Eivor wants to avoid being remembered as a shameful traitor, and you get to influence how far she’s willing to go to ensure that outcome. The decisions you make determine how others–especially Sigurd–view Eivor, which can result in slight alterations to how certain arcs (and the campaign as a whole) end. They’re small changes that avoid outright redefining the timeline of real human history

The Ultimate Edition also includes additional cosmetic items, including the Hati Wolf mount, a set of runes, and a unique player title.

Instead focusing on giving you the room to somewhat shape Eivor into your desired protagonist. For example, incorrectly deducing the identity of a traitor in one of the later arcs caused one of my allies to ultimately be shot, seemingly gravely so as I never heard from them again. Your decisions can impact gameplay too; for instance, after sparing one of the early game bosses, the man rewarded me for my kindness by telling me how to prevent Eivor’s name from being added to the list of targets that the wandering Zealots hunt. Had I killed him, I would have never learned this information, and the group of some of Valhalla’s most dangerous and powerful enemies would have hunted me throughout the rest campaign. Though Eivor is the only character that really benefits from it, this storytelling structure works out for Valhalla. With a main campaign that clocks in at 65 hours, dividing Valhalla into more digestible two-to-three-hour stories helps you get through the whole thing. There are clear stopping points in the campaign, which help pace the story so that it’s not immediately jumping between too many high-key set pieces in short succession or going long stretches with nothing happening. Its pacing still isn’t without its issues–Valhalla takes way too long to get to the more exciting and intriguing, nuanced arcs. I remember thinking, “Oh, wow, this game is actually starting to get really freakin’ good,” and then seeing I was already 15 hours in. Once it hits its stride with memorable arcs and more things to do in the settlement Zcrew

Valhalla starts to exhibit the kind of confidence you’d expect in the third go at the new open-world RPG style of Assassin’s Creed, but it just takes a long time to get to that point. Initially limited to a choice of only a couple of alliances to pursue, your options of possible missions quickly balloons after the first 15 hours, with Randvi giving you several points of interest on your map. The game does encourage you down a pretty specific path–you may have four possible alliances to go after but maybe only two are within areas that match your current power level, for example. And the game doesn’t give you every possible alliance at once. You’re usually given them in batches of two to four, and get a new batch when the current one is complete. There are exceptions–you get some alliances early on that are located in very high power level areas, showcasing missions you should be working towards, not jumping at immediately. But this is more a suggestion than direction. You can go after alliances well above your power level if you want. As far as I can tell, you can go anywhere on the map as soon as you establish your settlement in England, even if the story isn’t pointing you in that direction yet. Your attack damage and health will just be lower than what is advised. But even that can be fun. I’ve gone after a few alliances where Eivor would die in one or two hits from the high level enemies, pushing me to really learn the exact timing needed to dodge and deflect attacks.

Regardless of what order you choose, you’ll eventually make some sort of alliance with or conquer every part of England before the campaign is done. None of the missions that Randvi brings you are optional–you’ll do all of them eventually. Eivor’s lasting impact, or the potential for it, is an effective driving force to carry you through to this end. Figuring out how a random Viking from the 800s will save the world in 2020 is an intriguing proposition, especially since Valhalla does such a good job laying breadcrumbs of knowledge and small revelations throughout its runtime to keep you chasing the answer to that question. The game quickly lays out that it’s who Eivor is and what she ultimately does that is important, but then deftly sets up several possibilities. Eivor begins to become a respected leader and partner to Randvi in overseeing the settlement, an almost legendary warrior when acting in Sigurd’s name and securing alliances, and an Assassin as she hunts for the Order of Ancients (precursors to the Templar Order) alongside the Hidden Ones (precursors to the Assassin Brotherhood). All the while, she tries to piece together the true meaning of her visions alongside Valka, the Raven Clan’s seer, who talks Eivor through her emotional and mental turmoil. All of these plotlines mix together to form Valhalla’s main campaign, informing Layla (and by extension, us) as to who Zelter

Eivor is, while providing the clues needed to put together how everything in the franchise adds up. I love that, even once it’s shown its entire hand, Valhalla doesn’t actually explain everything. It just gives you pieces that are there to put an answer together. Even so, the siblings’ quest for wealth, glory, and power throughout England is darker, sadder, and more grounded than the tones of the past few games had led me to expect. There are moments throughout where the griefstriken, bittersweet, and just plain bitter resolutions reminded me of The Witcher 3’s Bloody Baron delivery. This is a dirty, dingy world where life is cheap and nearly everyone is scratching and clawing to gain power – or to keep it – regardless of who gets burned along the way. One particular instance found me helping the leader of a nearby shire – regions within the four kingdoms (no hobbits) – who had discovered a traitor in her inner circle and charged me with rooting them out because she loved each one of them as family and couldn’t trust herself to see past their lies. The resulting few hours of investigation brought me to the end of the road, and I made the best decision based on the available information I had. To be honest, I’m not sure I was right; I still don’t know. If the person I accused was guilty, Valhalla never gave me more clarity, and the uncertainty seems very intentional.

My judgment was accepted and the consequences were swiftly doled out, and that was that. I’ve found myself thinking about that decision ever since. But that’s the business of eighth-century England, I suppose. Valhalla’s vast interpretation of The Dark Ages of Britain is massive, and when coupled with a significant portion of Norway, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla presents a staggeringly large playground through which you ply your trade. And no matter where you are, it’s absolutely stunning. As I played it on the Xbox Series X, running 4K resolution and 60 frames per second, it may be the most beautiful Assassin’s Creed world yet; certainly the most satisfying to sit back and watch. The snow-blanketed tundras and mountainous ranges of Norway are breathtaking, especially at night as the aurora illuminates the sky above. The rolling green hills of England, cut up by iconic stone walls, are a ready canvas for the rays of light that pierce through the muggy cloud cover, casting shadows that slowly roll across the landscape. It’s hard to overstate how gorgeous a scene can be when the various lighting and weather effects systems are all working in unison. When I stormed the banks of a small riverside church, ready to pillage and plunder, the streaks of light bombarding the dense fog lit up the screen and enveloped the Christian cross in a scene that could’ve been pulled from a Dennis Villeneuve film, only with more heavy-handedness.
