Expected Assassin’s Creed Content
We’ve already seen a few trailers for the upcoming game, which revealed Valhalla’s theme, it’s main character and some plot points.
But there’s still plenty of aspects that Ubisoft could well showcase at Ubisoft Forward.
Gameplay Reveal
Ubisoft may well have released a ‘Gameplay Trailer’ for Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, but many fans were expecting to see more…well…actual gameplay.
Ubisoft’s Creative Director, Ashraf Ismail, directly responded to disappointed fans following the last trailer.
‘In-depth gameplay’ was stated to be on the cards and we expect to see this reveal at Ubisoft Forward.
More Plot Details
Ubisoft has already unveiled a little about what to expect from the AC Valhalla story – the official Ubisoft site reads:
In Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, you are Eivor, a fierce Viking warrior raised on tales of battle and glory.
Explore a dynamic and beautiful open world set against the brutal backdrop of England’s Dark Ages.
Raid your enemies, grow your settlement and build your political power in your quest to earn your place among the gods in Valhalla.
In addition the official reveal trailer included the English King, Alfred the Great, who dealt with the Vikings during the 9th Century.
However, we expect Ubisoft Forward to reveal more in-depth plot details, explaining exactly how Eivor’s story ties in with that of the Assassins.
