One of the best assassins creed game to date. Really good story and gameplay. The map is very big and have a lot of side quest to do.

Great game and a ton of the things to do. I have noticed a hand full of glitches but a simple reset of the Xbox and it goes away.

This is, as are all the AC games, historical and entertaining. I bought for the Xbox one x and was extremely satisfied with the style of fighting and immense open world and excellent graphics. Even on the Xbox one it looks good and plays with ease (loading and rendering)

LOVE THIS GAME! Enjoyed 100% completing this game, it gets better and better every year. Also, there are limited time events to keep you playing and collecting gear/items. Combat is good, skill tree it good, combat is either stealth or all out war. I played it on the Xbox Series X (newest) and you can either pick Quality or Performance mode. I prefer Performance for combat, and Quality for exploring. You can switch between them whenever.

After 90+ hours of gameplay, I can truly say this is my favorite AC game. The graphics are excellent on the Series X and the game lacked the repetitiveness other AC games struggled with. Did find the occasional bug while playing but that's not unexpected at launch. On the upside, every bug I found was fixed with a reboot. Highly recommend!

Incredible open world with pretty fun combat and beautiful quality/performance on the Series X

Another excellent addition to the AC universe.Even though this ia not a game developed from the ground up for the newest consoles, you can definitely see some noticaeable visual upgrades, with the incredible lighting and vibrant colors on the Xbox seies X. I am no frame rate expert, but it didnt seem any notably faster / smoother than AC Odyssey, but certainly no worse. As for the game play (thus far), everything looks and feels excellent, sharing some common elements with AC Odyssey. Looking forward to more fun to come with this title.

ONE OF THE GREATEST ASSASSIN’S CREED GAMES EVER! I've been excited for this game for a long, LONG time. This might shock you, but I really liked Origins and Odyssey. I didn't love those two games, but I can see why both of them won critical acclaim and why they went into the Game Awards for game of the year. Again, I enjoyed those games, but I don't love them. Assassin's Creed Valhalla is simply amazing and exactly what I've been looking for in this new direction they're taking this series. If you don't like RPGs, you probably won't like this game. If you don't like upgrading your character and grinding your weapons to become stronger, you probably won't like this game. If you're like me, someone who's been a fan of this franchise since Black Flag, then this is the type of game that will definitely win you over like it won me over. Assassin's Creed Valhalla is one of the greatest games in the entire franchise. I would go out my way and call it one of my favorite games of 2020. Valhalla makes you feel like a viking, but you can upgrade your character to play like an assassin. Stealth is back and better than I imagined. No, it's not the best kind of stealth and it's not just go up to somebody and assassinate him all the time. Blending in with people? Now that's what I'm talking about, and that's what was lacking from the past two games... and it looks really good.

My first assassin's creed since trying the very first one was odyssey, I was hooked with that game. That game was massive and I never finished it. Valhalla has been said to be smaller but I've got over 113 hours into this game and I still haven't finished the main story. I haven't even collect all the random stuff. The gameplay is very similar to odyssey in my opinion and they added fishing to this game which I find rather slow and uninteresting. If your looking for something to take up huge chunks of time this game is for you. I was lucky enough to get a series x and this game looks absolutely gorgeous on that system. The lighting of the world gives way to truly breath taking environments. The side stuff for the most part isn't even needed and can honestly be a bore. They also don't give you a crazy amount of weapons that you can either sell or break down in this game which I felt was annoying. Overall the game is a solid entry and I feel it has some downs but way more ups.

Bought it on sale and it was well worth it. You really get your money's worth with this game. It's packed with hours of gameplay and I'm having a hard time putting it down. These games aren't for everyone, as they take a lot of your time. I feel like we all have a lot of that these days, so pick it up! Playing on the Series X. Runs great.

Just a great game.
If you love Assassin's Creed you will love this game.
If you do not like Assassin's Creed?
Well, what is wrong with you?
No, if you do not like the series this entry will not convert you but it is the perfect game to break in my new Xbox Series X!
Beautiful vistas and savage combat and a better than expected story.
Awesome game!

A Solid Buy...If You Liked The Last 2 Games

If you liked the last 2 games, you probably will enjoy this, and there's plenty to like. Large map, lively open world that's beautifully rendered, decent lore and choices that impact the ending.
It is similar enough to feel comfortable, but there are some fighting button function changes. The fighting is still clunky in slightly different ways.
It is optimized for Series X/S and I'm playing it on the X, it runs well and haven't experienced any bugs in about 55 hours.

Very long but absolutely stunning, a great story, and engaging characters. It also capitalizes on what made Origins and Odyssey successful, while taking the criticisms to heart (ie, side quests in Valhalla aren’t near as repetitive as Odyssey). Choices actually feel like they have an impact this time around. I think it’s my favorite AC since AC2.

Epic scale, maybe even a bit too much

Runs smoothly on XSX, looks really good in HDR once you get the settings (TV, console, and game) lined up just right. Lots of exploring, side missions etc if you want can play for hundreds of hours collecting stuff. Maybe a bit too much if I'm honest, I've barely made a dent 2 weeks in. Combat is ok, a little clunky compared to GOW. Enemy AI also so so.
Love the setting, history, Roman ruins to explore, etc. Tons of hours of fun to be had.
