To be honest at this point I think they do it for continuity sake as the main over arching story happens in present time in the game world so they want to keep pushing the whole story of what is going on, but I 100% agree I think most people would prefer if they were just good cut scenes that explained the situation in present time in a timely manner so we could get back to having fun
They only do it to appease the ‘original fans’ of the series and then half-ass it too, so that it’s just shit and neither side is happy with the modern day section.
Calling it now, they’ll have the norse gods as another branch of the isu and we’ll prolly go to one realm or two from the nine realms of yggdrasil in some ways, maybe through simulations like in Odyssey’s Atlantis DLC
The Apples of Eden and mythology has been a prominent focus of the entirety of the series they have included fantasy aspects from the start of the series and are just expanding it to allow for new visual and gameplay experiences. In my opinion the dlc parts of both Origins and Odyssey where you go to other worlds were some of the best parts of the entire series.
I just wish this game was in no way connected to Assassin's Creed. That's so played out... I just want great games from different historical periods with more in depth and original campaigns.

- The hidden blade will be back (albeit less hidden) - Dual-wielding of weapons - It seems like the signature weapon this time will be an axe (no surprise there) - Larger open area battles like in Odyssey will be back - The game will again focus heavily on direct confrontation and less on stealth - Mythology will be part of the game again though it's unclear to what extent.

I'm going to tell you something...it may come as a shock. Come closer...no no...closer...come on...a lot closer...I need to whisper this in your ear... THE ENGLISH WERE A BUNCH OF ABSOLUTE BASTARDS FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS As you were 👍👌🤦🏻♂️
Read their description. If you have eyes, you'll notice that it's clearly written that you can stealth kill your opponents with the hidden blade. And literally every single assassin in the other games were warriors too, so stop spamming the bullshit about, "Vikings cannot be stealthy." You use stealth whenever it's necessary. No one is foolish enough to go head on against 10 enemies.
Too much to correct by peoples sweeping statements that are wrong so I'll be quick. I'm Welsh, a celt so let me explain a few things. Firstly the Norse were attacking defenseless English, they were attacking Saxon invaders. England and the English kingdom was even properly formed before "Alfred the deceiver" died and his son Aethfled the Useless was totally ineffective as king. The Roman's subjugated us Celts in 100 A.C.E and when they were wiped out by the Ostrogoths the GERMAN Anglo Saxons filled the gap. So the Vikings raiding were killing Saxons, so any English members on here bemoaning the plot, unless your worried about ubisoft's making a pretty good looking game, fighting invader Saxons, they have done their homework like odyssey. Vikings/Northman created the Danewald in Northumbria and Mercia, created treaty with the south Saxons and aside from the odd raid, helped them defend themselves from Francs, other Norse and us pesky true Britons, the Welsh and Scots. Me, cant wait for this game!
@@pagansquaddie "us pesky true Brits" dude everyone in the British isles share literally every type of ancestry ffs don't act like you're special, you'll have Saxon blood also just like some Scottish and Welsh people will.
@@caspianmanpredator163 He's Welsh lol according to the Scots, Welsh and the Irish, they are still the indigenous people of briton before the Saxons became English with the Normans. Even though they have done nothing but piss and moan about it for a millennia.
@@jrj3505 doesn't exactly make sense considering the Scots are actually from Ireland as they kicked out the true Scottish Brits who were the Picts, so that doesn't make sense either then. However there's literally been studies showing that a majority of people in the UK share the same ancestors from all different areas so everyone is technically part English, scottish, Welsh and Irish
@@lordfarquad9063 ahaha if you're referring to him having illness over his life, and the probabal cause of his death yeah i suppose he does have a bit of a sore bottom ahaha
English from their own perspective are the good guys because they are defending their home from the 'heathens'. The vikings from their own perspective are the good guys because they are raiding England (historically) to make a settlement there as they wanted more fertile land given that most of scandanavia was freezing so the ground was hard. Also vikings believe the only way to enter valhalla is to die a warriors death, so going to fight an enemy was seen more as a necessity than an choice.
I know right? Saxons need more love what with the Vikings series,the last kingdom and now this all portraying them as weak pussies. But everyone has a massive hard on for Vikings with that dumb ass none historical haircut.
It's fashionable at the moment to present the Vikings sympathetically as those who just 'got a bad rep' via historical revisionism and paint the Anglo Saxon Christians as the bad guys. Alfred the Great is the oppressive Templar tyrant and the invading pillaging rapists who massacre monasteries are the good guys lmao. It's interesting as Alfred defeated the heathens anyway and their leader converted to Christianity.
There were elements of this trailer that felt a lot like the trailers for AC: Revelations (one of the best trailers) and AC: III. I'm also glad to see the game getting back to a time in history that's closer to the formation and existence of the actual Assassins and Templars the games were originally inspired by. Looking forward to where this one goes!
Lol in that times the assassin were existing sinxe round about 900 years, bayek founded them in 20 bc. I think this ac will explain how the conflict between templars and assassins started and how templars got founded. I mean the cross we were able to see while war was declared.
@@astrimba5252 I meant the actual history of the Assassins and Templars, not the AC history. The two groups came into being a couple of hundred years after AC: Valhalla is set. I'm hoping to see how the conflict developed in-game as well, I think the story could start to feel more familiar and closer to what the conflict between them was like at the start of the series.
They could've been a bit more accurate with arms and armour of the time rather than 'fashionable furry leather Vikings' and 'futuristic Saxons that look more like Normans' Also. Shield wall? Nice nod to the Hutton hoo helmet though.
Ubisoft, like Hollywood, never let historical accuracy get in the way of a good romp. When it comes to Vikings the silly costumes and use of armour/weapons 100s of years too early is almost a trope in and of itself at this point. Bernard Cornwell's Last Kingdom book series is good for (mostly) historically accurate Viking action.. unlike the (still awesome) show, Vikings.
Mbah Dota 2 yes because god of war invented Vikings and Norse mythology and the Witcher invented RPGs. I hate these comparisons because there are plenty of distinctions between AC and other games. It’s like saying Rockstar invented westerns or cod invented fps
Altair said.. La shai'on waqe'on mutlaq, bal kullun momken.. In arabic.. That means.. Nothing is absolute, everything is possible.. (an understandable sentence) Even in Assassin's creed odyssey they said that.. Nothing is absolute..
I don’t know how this is still assassins creed. Everyone’s just jumping on the Vikings/Last Kingdom band wagon. no helmets, no chain mail, no large shields, leather leather leather leather and fur.
The vikings having the big horned helmets, chain mail etc is a myth, they never actually had those, this is actually pretty accurate attire for the vikings
Clone324 ikr there wasn’t even an England back then only Wessex , Northumbria and a fewother nations , also the Vikings never conquered the entire islands
the vikings did use shields and ac: valhalla i think will include shield use to the main character.. is it so difficult to do the same for odyssey? greek hoplites used shield more than any other fighter and their shields were their best weapon
They actually came out and said the reason they didn’t use shields was because you play as a mercenary so they wanted to give them a more unorthodox style. If they used a shield it might suggest phalanx which would require a team of people.
Marius Elgohary I be naming my male character as Uhtred lol change his hair to black lol like the tv series last kingdom if not seen it go check it out
Please just drop the animus and modern day stuff. And love how they manage to make the english seem like bad people as they're being attacked in their homeland and are only defending themselves from the attacking Barbarians xd
Aye bro dont ye know its current year all the vikings where black muslim lesbians pffffffft bigot England is a black woman jesus its so obvious valhalla is for everybody even if it says in the stanzas its not bruh get with the times 🙄
I assume they might base it off the massacre of the Viking settlements in England. I mean obviously the attack wasn't motivated by 'evil' they were massive threat if there was ever another Viking invasion which there were, all the time. Not to mention this is Alfred the Great we're talking about, the King that put in all the ground work for a united England. The King of Wessex that managed to keep his kingdom the only bastion of relative peace while chunks of England were under Viking subjugation and constant threat of raiding. He poured his life into maintaining the defence of his kingdom. So yeah to sum up this rant I have issue seeing him be played as the bad guy especially against Vikings of all people.
I’m happy Alfred is getting some respect he’s not counted as a proper king by most people but I just wanna see the him get some cool scenes cuz I’m called Alfred lol
Trapp B yeah it annoys me that when in history they talk about English kings the first one is William the conqueror they ignore Alfred and all the ones before
The viking protected the villager Keeping to the creed of protecting those who cant protect themselves But that dosent say much either its a whole new unimportant game with a dead story
Love the setting, can't wait for the gameplay to continue to be innovated like the last few games. But I'm very glad we have actual assassin's again. This is gonna be great!
A lot of people hated the new Assassin's Creed games... I say people have been asking for something different for a long time, so when Ubisoft gave something different and actually good in a lot of ways that the people hating aren't looking at people starting hating even tho they asked for something different xD The new Assassin's Creed games aren't the old AC games, but that doesn't mean they're bad. They're good in their own way.
@@FireStarJutsu I was saying this to my friend earlier even though the last few games were good (from origins onward) they're only good if you don't consider them as assassin's creed games. I just want the powerful feeling combat back not feeling like some moron that can't even kill somebody when you stab them in the neck from behind
@@FireStarJutsu The problem is that they are AC games on name only, the last true one was Unity imo, since it really dealt with you know The Assasins and the Templars.
@@NANO2459 You mean their historical accuracy? The show and the game[it seems] have gone the biker look route again and I wish someone, someday would actually portray the vikings accurately.
Oh man this game looks awesome being the king of England that’s gonna kick some Viking ass back to Valhalla.....oh wait no sorry not true we’re the bad guys here
Please focus more on the story of the game with both the present and past timelines and memorable,loving characters including the protagonist....please make something which is different, interesting and unique from previous AC games.....like the Ezio Auditore franchise and the Prince of Persia franchise.....
@@thxuser8451 agreed, I did not feel any investment in the characters from odyssey. And I am afraid that is going to be the case here as well, because of the dialogue options. I want to play a well written story and protagonists with their own personality and goals. Not what i choose them to want..
I feel like the next assassins creed should have a Templar campaign and an Assassins campaign. being an assassin is super cool, but exploring a Templar oriented character in the same period and time u could also explore as an assassin would be cooler. a kind of team to pick
3:06 The armor worked?! OMG!!!! Funny to see the "barbarian" being much smaller than the "civilized knight". And I loved how they showed how the steriotype of the barbaric viking formed (interesting level of hypocrisy too)
@@HRV27 ofcourse but at the end of the day they actually were defending from invaders. Just the way it is. Pillagers, Raiders. This isn't coming from bias, I actually have Viking ancestors so that isn't the issue, I just feel mainstream games and things like that Demonize the British especially in the Medieval and early Periods.
@@dannyjames8894 Yeah, I'm in the state of mind that there's hardly ever been a historical figure, country or empire that is truly, 100% right. It's all based on perspective, and as someone born in England, it's not great to see my country be put in such an evil light, but in the end I think they have artistic license and the right to interpret the events of history however they want as long as they keep the base facts accurate
Maybe the go ro something like revelations were suleimain wasnt truly a templar and maybe the here the Leader of the Templar is the guy right to Alfred
The composer of the Ezio games: Jesper Kyd The composer of Origins: Sarah Schachner The narrative director/head writer of Black Flag & Revelations: Darby McDevitt The creative director of Black Flag & Origins: Ashraf Ismail This will be a masterpiece
Did anyone else think that oden was ezio in revelations when they first saw it. Plus it might just be to suit his mood but in a Norse based game when the main character gets angry there’s thunder and lightning
As a OG AC player I can say OG Assasin's creed is very outdated with thier gameplay formula. I lost interest with AC until they got inspiration from other games(witcher 3 for good reason)
It's fashionable at the moment to present the Vikings sympathetically as those who just 'got a bad rep' via historical revisionism and paint the Anglo Saxon Christians as the bad guys. Alfred the Great is the oppressive Templar tyrant and the invading pillaging rapists who massacre monasteries are the good guys lmao. It's interesting as Alfred defeated the heathens anyway and their leader converted to Christianity
are we supposed to feel bad for the vikings when they are historically known for raiding murdering and other foul actions towards the people of England France and others? and we are supposed to think the king is evil or something for ordering a defence of England?
Another great Story, Cinematography, Screenplay,Graphics makes it Truly Amazing for Fantasy Lover. The only thing is Assassin Creed no more use its Hoodie.
Siem van den Oever You need to watch ‘The Last Kingdom’ on Netflix. Set in the exact same time period in England with the Viking invasion and Alfred the Great trying to unite the kingdoms of Britain into one state (England)
Looks dope but stop branding these games as "Assassin's Creed". You are limiting your writers, confuse new players who are introduced to the "series" and for the the old fans, they already lost interest after Desmond died.
Agreed. Making just a viking game without the assassin's creed title would give them way more freedom. Although I'd miss that hidden blade I suppose, haven't seen that since 2017
I didn't lol, speak for yourself. I wasn't even too interested in the modern day. And if fans lost interest after Desmond died, then how is Black Flag one of the best games in the franchise?
Just think of the new games as spin-offs. Very good open world spin-offs. It was clear from Unity and Syndicate that the franchise was going nowhere - so this new direction was a really good decision imo.
@@static475 A lot of AC fans still say that it's one of the best AC games. There's this channel called Fizhy. That dude is a big AC fan and he hated Odyssey for what it was but he still says that Black Flag was his second favorite AC game. AC started getting stale from Unity, but Origins and Odyssey revived the series again. Odyssey was no AC game for the most part but it was still an amazing game.
It actually makes sense in this setting to have both male or female because Shieldmaidens are bad ass warriors & there was a good few of them in invasions.
@@therealmaskriz5716 Well they announced an "ancient times" trilogy before origins, so it makes sense that all three games starting with Origin would share a common engine and more or less the same mechanics. My point is that there shouldn't be any surprise that the game will be very similar to Origins and Odyssey.

Am i the only one who got reminded of the Revelations trailer where Ezio sees Altair on the battlefield when the guy in this trailer see's Odin?
I think that hooded man is Ezio, but the viking dude thinks he's Odin.
AeonsAlex I think this is set before Ezio so that wouldn’t make much sense but it would be pretty cool
@@AeonsAlex. hooded man can't be Ezio. Ezio lived in 15th-16th century, and Valhalla takes place in 9th or 10th centuries

@@pagansquaddie "us pesky true Brits" dude everyone in the British isles share literally every type of ancestry ffs don't act like you're special, you'll have Saxon blood also just like some Scottish and Welsh people will.
@@caspianmanpredator163 He's Welsh lol according to the Scots, Welsh and the Irish, they are still the indigenous people of briton before the Saxons became English with the Normans. Even though they have done nothing but piss and moan about it for a millennia.
@@jrj3505 doesn't exactly make sense considering the Scots are actually from Ireland as they kicked out the true Scottish Brits who were the Picts, so that doesn't make sense either then. However there's literally been studies showing that a majority of people in the UK share the same ancestors from all different areas so everyone is technically part English, scottish, Welsh and Irish
1:35 I was expecting him to said "SHIELD WALL!''
ayeee vikings fan
Or the last kingdom
I KNOWWWWW, I WANTED TO PUT MY HEAD THROUGH MY MONITOR WHEN HE ENDED IT ON "SHIELD"
HOLD THE FRONT LINES, FIGHT TIL DEATH!
Peter Ping say
Not gonna lie I wanted the vikings to be the enemies
Not sure how i feel about Alfred the great being the bad guy tbh ahaha
isn’t he the one with the sore bottom
@@lordfarquad9063 ahaha if you're referring to him having illness over his life, and the probabal cause of his death yeah i suppose he does have a bit of a sore bottom ahaha

And next: Assassins Creed: Godzilla vs. King Kong, where Kong straps a massive wrist blade to his forearm to fight the giant laser spewing lizard.
svsguru2000 but like, that Would be sick
With the way the series is heading. I think ubisoft would consider it 🤣🤣🤣
Imagine being this upset over a video game
Fucking hell 🤣🤣
Hahaha this is brilliant 😂😂😂
They could strap a hidden blade on anything and call it an Assassins Creed game
How come the English are the bad guys but they’re the ones being invaded
This is set in the Vikings perspective, so England are kinda meant to be the villains.
English from their own perspective are the good guys because they are defending their home from the 'heathens'.
The vikings from their own perspective are the good guys because they are raiding England (historically) to make a settlement there as they wanted more fertile land given that most of scandanavia was freezing so the ground was hard. Also vikings believe the only way to enter valhalla is to die a warriors death, so going to fight an enemy was seen more as a necessity than an choice.
I know right? Saxons need more love what with the Vikings series,the last kingdom and now this all portraying them as weak pussies. But everyone has a massive hard on for Vikings with that dumb ass none historical haircut.
@plusmetal rise Never ever take an assassins creed game to be morally correct.
It's fashionable at the moment to present the Vikings sympathetically as those who just 'got a bad rep' via historical revisionism and paint the Anglo Saxon Christians as the bad guys. Alfred the Great is the oppressive Templar tyrant and the invading pillaging rapists who massacre monasteries are the good guys lmao. It's interesting as Alfred defeated the heathens anyway and their leader converted to Christianity.
There were elements of this trailer that felt a lot like the trailers for AC: Revelations (one of the best trailers) and AC: III. I'm also glad to see the game getting back to a time in history that's closer to the formation and existence of the actual Assassins and Templars the games were originally inspired by. Looking forward to where this one goes!
Lol in that times the assassin were existing sinxe round about 900 years, bayek founded them in 20 bc. I think this ac will explain how the conflict between templars and assassins started and how templars got founded. I mean the cross we were able to see while war was declared.
@@astrimba5252 I meant the actual history of the Assassins and Templars, not the AC history. The two groups came into being a couple of hundred years after AC: Valhalla is set. I'm hoping to see how the conflict developed in-game as well, I think the story could start to feel more familiar and closer to what the conflict between them was like at the start of the series.
I need this in my life. Assassin’s Creed is such a big part of who I am. Cannot wait to see this!
Me too man it's totally changed my life
Aye, loving each and every one of the games! :-)
You and me both brother! My most favourite game series of all time
You and me both mate!
All of them are great ! Cannot wait for this !!!
I grew a beard watching this
So much testosterone i love it
They could've been a bit more accurate with arms and armour of the time rather than 'fashionable furry leather Vikings' and 'futuristic Saxons that look more like Normans'
Also. Shield wall?
Nice nod to the Hutton hoo helmet though.
Yeah the 15th century warsword put me off a bit
Historical accruracy shouldn’t come at the cost of fun
Where do they say shield wall
@@joshclarke3876 they say shields
Ubisoft, like Hollywood, never let historical accuracy get in the way of a good romp. When it comes to Vikings the silly costumes and use of armour/weapons 100s of years too early is almost a trope in and of itself at this point. Bernard Cornwell's Last Kingdom book series is good for (mostly) historically accurate Viking action.. unlike the (still awesome) show, Vikings.
1:36 Shield!!!
AC 3, Black Flag, Rogue, Origins, Odyssey and Now Valhalla.
God Of War + The Witcher + Odyssey Mixed Together = Valhalla
Never compare a game with witcher unless you have played the game. Opinions change in a matter of minutes
Tibce Witcher was garbage. The show is dope asfff tho. But the games were trash asff.
@@deedeesmalls102
Hahahah no the show was shit and the games are great
No not odyssey, origins
Mbah Dota 2 yes because god of war invented Vikings and Norse mythology and the Witcher invented RPGs. I hate these comparisons because there are plenty of distinctions between AC and other games. It’s like saying Rockstar invented westerns or cod invented fps

Looks like the motto of Ubisoft ;) :)
I don’t know how this is still assassins creed. Everyone’s just jumping on the Vikings/Last Kingdom band wagon.
no helmets, no chain mail, no large shields, leather leather leather leather and fur.
Clone324 Nah it’s cuz they got them wrist knives. 😂
The vikings having the big horned helmets, chain mail etc is a myth, they never actually had those, this is actually pretty accurate attire for the vikings
Clone324 ikr there wasn’t even an England back then only Wessex , Northumbria and a fewother nations , also the Vikings never conquered the entire islands
Alice the mystery trans girl that’s wrong why would they wear leather over chainmail. Horned helmets no but chainmail and hauberks yes!
Annûntirith Fun fact the helmets acctually didn't have horns
This looks amazing, I love the whole Viking’s battle with England era. Please don’t disappoint !
the vikings did use shields and ac: valhalla i think will include shield use to the main character.. is it so difficult to do the same for odyssey? greek hoplites used shield more than any other fighter and their shields were their best weapon
They actually came out and said the reason they didn’t use shields was because you play as a mercenary so they wanted to give them a more unorthodox style. If they used a shield it might suggest phalanx which would require a team of people.
They didn't want people to turtle in Odyssey so they retracted shields and spear throwing.
@@dylanduke1075 even mercs back then fought with a shield
Argyris Pericharos sorry but Mercs back then didn’t have a standardised repertoire of weapons. They fought with a variety of stuff
@@dylanduke1075 variety, a shield could be included
I think assassin's creed contains part of my personality, it just does something that no other game can do
Yes

Wrong.

“Assassin’s Creed: Vinland Saga”🤣🤣
Trussme
First thing I thought of😂😂😂😂
More like the last kingdom tv series even king of Wessex is in it
Marius Elgohary I be naming my male character as Uhtred lol change his hair to black lol like the tv series last kingdom if not seen it go check it out
Please just drop the animus and modern day stuff.
And love how they manage to make the english seem like bad people as they're being attacked in their homeland and are only defending themselves from the attacking Barbarians xd
ZeJJimBo England was never their homeland anyway
Aye bro dont ye know its current year all the vikings where black muslim lesbians pffffffft bigot England is a black woman jesus its so obvious valhalla is for everybody even if it says in the stanzas its not bruh get with the times 🙄
I assume they might base it off the massacre of the Viking settlements in England. I mean obviously the attack wasn't motivated by 'evil' they were massive threat if there was ever another Viking invasion which there were, all the time.
Not to mention this is Alfred the Great we're talking about, the King that put in all the ground work for a united England. The King of Wessex that managed to keep his kingdom the only bastion of relative peace while chunks of England were under Viking subjugation and constant threat of raiding. He poured his life into maintaining the defence of his kingdom.
So yeah to sum up this rant I have issue seeing him be played as the bad guy especially against Vikings of all people.
ZeJJimBo stfu this is this type of comments that led to Desmond’s death you son of a bitch
@@africanlatinochinaman6894 Go to a community college bro and redo English. What did I just read

Bob its in the title of the game so i think so.
@@DewanG-xh2ig that's what they said about origins and odyssey
Bob odyssey was amazing though
@@Bob-pu5jw origins was good game and odyssey better so this game will be epic
@@DaniPt98 it definitely weren't Assassin's Creed games tho
The only thing that stood out to me was the hidden blade. There’s nothing else in the trailer that was “assassins creed”.
The viking protected the villager
Keeping to the creed of protecting those who cant protect themselves
But that dosent say much either its a whole new unimportant game with a dead story
What's not assassins creed about Vikings storming a beach lol
turtle everything but the hidden blade and the music
Is it, Assassin's Creed: God of War, or, God of War: Assassin's Creed?
It's technically just a video game both ways
assassin's war: God of creed
Is god of war even a viking god bc i didnt think so?
He do be greek tho
@@Chicken-u9w he is greek god of war as he killed aries and took his place so technically...
Love the setting, can't wait for the gameplay to continue to be innovated like the last few games. But I'm very glad we have actual assassin's again. This is gonna be great!
How do you know he is an actual assassin? Because of the blade? That doesnt mean anything.
A lot of people hated the new Assassin's Creed games... I say people have been asking for something different for a long time, so when Ubisoft gave something different and actually good in a lot of ways that the people hating aren't looking at people starting hating even tho they asked for something different xD
The new Assassin's Creed games aren't the old AC games, but that doesn't mean they're bad. They're good in their own way.
@@FireStarJutsu I was saying this to my friend earlier even though the last few games were good (from origins onward) they're only good if you don't consider them as assassin's creed games. I just want the powerful feeling combat back not feeling like some moron that can't even kill somebody when you stab them in the neck from behind
@@FireStarJutsu The problem is that they are AC games on name only, the last true one was Unity imo, since it really dealt with you know The Assasins and the Templars.
@@robertomatesanz673 Yes. The name has become a brand and it brings attention.

@@Timbo6669 the shows are entertaining but historically as a English man vikings not cool. Bad ass and all but not cool
@@NANO2459 You mean their historical accuracy? The show and the game[it seems] have gone the biker look route again and I wish someone, someday would actually portray the vikings accurately.
Oh man this game looks awesome being the king of England that’s gonna kick some Viking ass back to Valhalla.....oh wait no sorry not true we’re the bad guys here
They made savages look like heroes. nice work ubi.
Was rooting for the Saxons all through the trailer, will be rooting for the Saxons all the way through the game.
Okay.
🤫
TBH I’m on the side of the English here
Please focus more on the story of the game with both the present and past timelines and memorable,loving characters including the protagonist....please make something which is different, interesting and unique from previous AC games.....like the Ezio Auditore franchise and the Prince of Persia franchise.....
I kind of want a modern day assassins creed like maybe that Russian girl who helps Shaun and the rest of the surviving assassin
Yeahhhhhh :(
The story is going to be as shallow as Odysseys was, because including dialogue options is more important than sticking to one good story.
@@thxuser8451 agreed, I did not feel any investment in the characters from odyssey. And I am afraid that is going to be the case here as well, because of the dialogue options. I want to play a well written story and protagonists with their own personality and goals. Not what i choose them to want..
When u know that Ubisoft is trying to focus on SHITTY OPEN WORLD CONCEPT & kids gonna love it😒
I feel like the next assassins creed should have a Templar campaign and an Assassins campaign. being an assassin is super cool, but exploring a Templar oriented character in the same period and time u could also explore as an assassin would be cooler. a kind of team to pick
That sound like a good idea
**cough** ac rouge **cough**
Blazing Blade was AC Rogue really all that good though? i mean something rlly dedicated, like how they dedicated viking’s as this games topic
I would say the perfect setting for templar was a viking game but yeah they've not done it
And by that I mean the templar protagonist
I can feel this is gonna be a good AC game
I'm pleasantly surprised at how accurate this looks
3:06
The armor worked?! OMG!!!!
Funny to see the "barbarian" being much smaller than the "civilized knight".
And I loved how they showed how the steriotype of the barbaric viking formed (interesting level of hypocrisy too)
Ikr? Nice to have a trailer acknowledge that armour had a use.
I mean, the Vikings were the bad ones in History, the Saxons were right to fight.
@@dannyjames8894 I agree, but history is written by the winners, if the Vikings had taken over England they'd be considered heroes and in the right.
@@HRV27 ofcourse but at the end of the day they actually were defending from invaders. Just the way it is. Pillagers, Raiders. This isn't coming from bias, I actually have Viking ancestors so that isn't the issue, I just feel mainstream games and things like that Demonize the British especially in the Medieval and early Periods.
@@dannyjames8894 Yeah, I'm in the state of mind that there's hardly ever been a historical figure, country or empire that is truly, 100% right. It's all based on perspective, and as someone born in England, it's not great to see my country be put in such an evil light, but in the end I think they have artistic license and the right to interpret the events of history however they want as long as they keep the base facts accurate
These cinematic trailers are the best part of a Assassin’s Creed game
nop xd
When did pre-Norman Anglo-Saxons become Byzantines lmao?
@@Spr1ggan87 While speaking with a british accent
The last shot gave me goosebumps, the blade just dripping with blood. Yes please, sign me the heck up
Haven’t been this hyped in a long long tome
I bet that tribal leader has the same "Black Beard" and "Pisspot" voice actor
Don't make Alfred the Great the bad guy smh, he's called the Great for a reason
Maybe the go ro something like revelations were suleimain wasnt truly a templar and maybe the here the Leader of the Templar is the guy right to Alfred
Everyone's a hero of their own story, nothing wrong with being on the Vikings side of things
I agree - Vikings are definitely more suitable as villains. We should be playing as the Anglos
Being called ''the Great'' doesn't necessarily mean you were the good guy. It definitely means you were a (surprise) great one though.
Vito472 the Anglos were the good guys because the Vikings were the invaders
I feel like ubisoft can only make games where the assassin kills the English 😂
Maybe Mel Gibson bought Ubisoft?
I was rooting for the big centurion
The composer of the Ezio games: Jesper Kyd
The composer of Origins: Sarah Schachner
The narrative director/head writer of Black Flag & Revelations: Darby McDevitt
The creative director of Black Flag & Origins: Ashraf Ismail
This will be a masterpiece
I'm getting The Last Kingdom vibes from this. Hopefully we'll see some of Alfred
I think the Templar King in the trailer was Alfred.
Stuggoto main characters male Voice actor plays Canute in the last kingdom
when he signs the letter you can see the name aelfred written next to war
@@r_hexagon5645 that's crazy!
If you pause as 1:10 you see he signed the bottom of the parchment ‘Aelfred’ (the way it’s actually spelt) so yeah that king is Alfred the Great

We want the OG Assassin's Creed gameplay !
No! that is boring and easy
Then play the OG games
As a OG AC player I can say OG Assasin's creed is very outdated with thier gameplay formula. I lost interest with AC until they got inspiration from other games(witcher 3 for good reason)

Having watched the Vikings tv series makes this ten times better as well, the place they leave from to go fight looks much like Kattegat
Siem van den Oever You need to watch ‘The Last Kingdom’ on Netflix. Set in the exact same time period in England with the Viking invasion and Alfred the Great trying to unite the kingdoms of Britain into one state (England)
James W I’ll do that today 😍
It's exactly like the TV shown on amizon prime Vikings I can literally spot characters from the show 😂
Looks dope but stop branding these games as "Assassin's Creed". You are limiting your writers, confuse new players who are introduced to the "series" and for the the old fans, they already lost interest after Desmond died.
Agreed. Making just a viking game without the assassin's creed title would give them way more freedom. Although I'd miss that hidden blade I suppose, haven't seen that since 2017
I didn't lol, speak for yourself. I wasn't even too interested in the modern day. And if fans lost interest after Desmond died, then how is Black Flag one of the best games in the franchise?
Just think of the new games as spin-offs. Very good open world spin-offs. It was clear from Unity and Syndicate that the franchise was going nowhere - so this new direction was a really good decision imo.
@@odinson5911 Because of Pirates not the Assassin / Templar plot.
@@static475 A lot of AC fans still say that it's one of the best AC games. There's this channel called Fizhy. That dude is a big AC fan and he hated Odyssey for what it was but he still says that Black Flag was his second favorite AC game. AC started getting stale from Unity, but Origins and Odyssey revived the series again. Odyssey was no AC game for the most part but it was still an amazing game.
Just looked at the official Ubisoft store description and the main character can be male or female. Their name is Eivor.
But which is the canon one?
It actually makes sense in this setting to have both male or female because Shieldmaidens are bad ass warriors & there was a good few of them in invasions.
What a shame. Seems like the animations will be shit again
@@therealmaskriz5716 Well they announced an "ancient times" trilogy before origins, so it makes sense that all three games starting with Origin would share a common engine and more or less the same mechanics. My point is that there shouldn't be any surprise that the game will be very similar to Origins and Odyssey.
So its Odyssey clone with different settings
For King Ragnar ! Skål !
