Each piece provides defensive stats (Armor, Light Resistance, Heavy Resistance, Evasion) and belongs to one of three alignments: Raven (stealth/assassination focus), Bear (melee combat/durability focus), or Wolf (ranged combat/utility focus). Equipping multiple pieces from the same set often grants set bonuses that enhance the aligned playstyle. Armor is color-coded by quality (Fine to Mythical) and can be upgraded to improve stats and unlock rune slots.

Armor can be upgraded in quality (Fine to Mythical) and enhanced with runes.

help_outline FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
  • Q: Is Assassin's Creed Valhalla a traditional Assassin's Creed game?
    A: Valhalla blends traditional Assassin's Creed elements (stealth, assassinations with the Hidden Blade, conflict between Hidden Ones/Order of the Ancients, modern-day story) with significant action RPG mechanics (skill trees, gear upgrades, dialogue choices, large open world, settlement building). It leans more into the RPG aspects than earlier titles in the series.
  • Q: Can I play as a male or female Eivor?
    A: Yes, players can choose to play as either a male Eivor (Varinsson) or a female Eivor (Varinsdottir). The story and dialogue are largely the same for both, with voice acting being the primary difference. Players can also let the Animus choose, which sometimes switches between them at key moments (canonically, Eivor is female).
  • Q: What is Ravensthorpe, and how does settlement building work?
    A: Ravensthorpe is the Viking settlement Eivor establishes in England. Players can upgrade the settlement by constructing various buildings (e.g., blacksmith, barracks, trading post, hunter's hut, seer's hut, museum) using resources gathered from raids. Each building provides new services, quests, characters, or passive benefits for Eivor and their clan.
  • Q: Are there choices and consequences in Valhalla?
    A: Yes, Valhalla features numerous dialogue choices and decisions during quests that can impact character relationships, the outcome of regional story arcs, alliances, and even aspects of the main story's ending. Some choices have more significant long-term consequences than others.
  • Q: What are the Asgard and Jotunheim sequences?
    A: These are vision quests where Eivor, through Valka's potions, experiences events from Norse mythology as Havi (another name for Odin). These sequences feature unique mythical environments, characters (like Thor, Loki, Freya, Tyr), and storylines that tie into the Isu lore and Eivor's own destiny.
  • Q: Does Valhalla have naval combat like previous AC games?
    A: While Eivor has a longship for river and sea travel and for initiating raids, direct ship-to-ship naval combat with cannons and complex maneuvers (like in Black Flag or Odyssey) is not a primary feature. The longship is mainly for transport, raiding party deployment, and navigating waterways. Limited ranged combat from the ship is possible.

    A: Far Cry 5's main story is largely standalone. However, it exists within the Far Cry universe, with some recurring characters (like Hurk Drubman Jr.) and thematic elements. Its ending directly leads into Far Cry New Dawn.
  • Q: Can I liberate the entire map in co-op?
    A: Yes, the full main campaign, including liberating outposts and completing missions, can be played in two-player online co-op. Story progression is saved for the host, but the guest player keeps their character progression, items, and currency.
build Technical Details
Graphics & Visual Fidelity

Powered by AnvilNext 2.0, Valhalla showcases detailed and expansive environments, from the fjords of Norway to the rolling hills and forests of England, and the mythical realms. It features impressive lighting, weather effects, and detailed character models. The game's art style captures the rugged beauty of the Viking Age and the distinct cultures of Norse and Anglo-Saxon societies.

Utilizes the Dunia Engine to render the scenic and diverse environments of Montana, from forests and mountains to farmlands and rivers. Features dynamic weather and a day-night cycle. Optional HD Texture Pack for PC.

Audio & Soundtrack

Original score composed by Jesper Kyd, Sarah Schachner, and Einar Selvik (of Wardruna). The music blends epic orchestral themes with authentic Norse folk instrumentation and vocals, creating a powerful and atmospheric soundscape. Features Viking chants, sea shanties sung by Eivor's crew, and ambient tracks reflecting the different regions. Sound design includes visceral combat sounds, distinct weapon effects, and immersive environmental audio.

Original score composed by Dan Romer, featuring a mix of Americana, gospel, and licensed tracks. The cult's music, including original hymns, plays a significant role in the game's atmosphere.

User Interface (UI/UX)

Features a customizable HUD with health, adrenaline, stamina, and equipped abilities/tools. A compass with objective markers aids navigation. The world map is extensive with filters for activities and collectibles. Menus for inventory, skills, abilities, quests, and settlement management are accessible. Eagle Vision (Odin's Sight) highlights enemies, loot, and points of interest.

Standard first-person HUD displaying health, ammo, compass, objectives, and companion status. Menus for inventory, map, perks, and mission logs.

Accessibility Options

Offers a wide range of accessibility options, including extensive control remapping, subtitle and caption customization (size, background, speaker names), options for QTEs (hold vs. tap), aim assist options, colorblind modes, options to reduce camera motion/screen effects, audio cues for important events, and adjustable text/icon sizes.

Includes customizable controls, aim assist, difficulty settings, and various subtitle options (size, background, speaker names).

info_outline Other Game Notes
  • Official PC system requirements from Ubisoft. Performance can vary significantly depending on specific hardware, settings, areas in-game (especially dense settlements or large battles), and background applications. An SSD is strongly recommended.
  • Laptop Performance Note: Laptop models of listed desktop GPUs will require comparable performance, high TGP (Total Graphics Power), and excellent cooling. **Assassin's Creed Valhalla is a demanding title, especially at higher resolutions or with maxed-out settings due to its large, detailed world.**
  • Laptop Consideration: G P U T G P: Good TGP is important for consistent framerates.
  • Laptop Consideration: Cooling Thermals: Robust cooling is essential for sustained performance during raids and exploration.
  • Laptop Consideration: C P U Power Limits: A strong CPU is needed for NPC simulation, large-scale battles, and world streaming.
  • Laptop Consideration: R A M Speed Dual Channel: Fast dual-channel RAM benefits performance.
  • Laptop Consideration: M U X Switch Optimus: Using a MUX switch or NVIDIA Advanced Optimus is recommended.
  • Optimization Detail: Upscaling Tech: Supports AMD FSR 1.0 (later versions may require mods or specific game updates). DLSS support is not native but might be possible via mods on PC for some users.
  • Optimization Detail: Key Settings Impact: World Details, Clutter, Shadow Quality, Volumetric Clouds, Water Quality, Screen Space Reflections, Character Texture Quality, and Anti-Aliasing heavily impact performance. The game offers an adaptive quality setting.
  • Game Name: Assassin Creed Valhalla
  • Official system requirements from Ubisoft (as of game launch). Performance can vary depending on specific hardware, settings, and background applications. An SSD is recommended for optimal performance.
  • Laptop Performance Note: Laptop models of listed desktop GPUs may work if their performance is comparable. Performance on laptops is also heavily influenced by cooling and the GPU's Total Graphics Power (TGP). The estimated laptop specs below are approximate and reflect performance tiers for the game's original release period. **Modern laptop GPUs (NVIDIA RTX 30-series, RTX 40-series, and newer AMD equivalents) will significantly exceed these original recommendations and offer excellent performance across all resolutions.**
  • Laptop Consideration: G P U T G P: Higher TGP in a laptop GPU generally correlates with better sustained performance.
  • Laptop Consideration: Cooling Thermals: Good cooling is essential to prevent thermal throttling during demanding gameplay.
  • Laptop Consideration: C P U Power Limits: Laptops with higher CPU power limits can maintain boost clocks longer.
  • Laptop Consideration: M U X Switch Optimus: Using a MUX switch (if available) or ensuring the dedicated GPU is prioritized over integrated graphics (via NVIDIA Control Panel/AMD Software) is recommended for optimal framerates.
  • Optimization Detail: Key Settings Impact: Texture Quality, Shadow Quality, Water Quality, Volumetric Fog, and Anti-Aliasing heavily impact performance.
