Assassin’s Creed Valhalla

Valhalla is an enormous game, with a massive map and tons of activities. But more importantly, the setting and aesthetic is what really drew many folks in, as it’s uncommon to play as a viking invading Britain. The combat is the same as Origins and Odyssey, with a focus on simple, action-based strikes and combos. You also and you have access to various weapons, like two-handed axes, shields, and the bow and arrow, to take down your enemies. It also features a straightforward settlement-building mechanic that kept me engaged far longer than the main story did!
