Ubisoft has announced that the next installment to the 'Assassin's Creed' series, 'Valhalla' will be released on November 17th, 2020, around the same time that consumers will be able to get their hands on the much anticipated Xbox Series X console.
The new role-playing game is the twenty-second release from the popular series, and follows up 2018's 'Assassin's Creed: Odyssey.' In Valhalla, players will have the chance to act as Eivor, a viking hero that has to lead his clan of followers from Norway to England during the ninth century. Players will have to battle Saxon armies to expand their influence, build alliances, and grow their settlements by recruiting clan members and building new structures.
