I purchased the ps4 version and was pleased to see after that it's able to be converted to ps5 if im ever able to get one. Smooth seemless graphics pleasing storyline. Overall it's a good game. Many assassins creed games b4 it so if you're buying it you probably know what you're gettin.

Grea games, unfortunately, there are still a few bugs that may (hopefully) get patched in the very near future. Great series and always love an open-world adventure that doesn't force you down any one specific path.

Been awhile since I played Assassin's, but this was a great title to jump back into the franchise. Stays true to the open world approach, TONS to explore and side quests to attempt, all in all a great game.

It's Assassin's Creed. Norway, England, Asgard.....it is awesome. If you liked any of the last games, you will love this. It is a big world with a lot of things to do, great stories, and fairly easy gameplay.

This game is the best of the series. This is a must have for any PS4/PS5 user. There is so much to do and the story is dependent on your decisions. Overall 10/10 game because of story and graphics.

It’s an excellent role playing game with a very thin coat of Assassin’s Creed paint. If you are looking to a return to old school AC games, this probably isn’t it. The emphasis is mostly on action and brutal 300-style combo finishers. It makes for some flashy gameplay, but doesn’t really feel like it fits properly into the rest of the AC franchise. You can however tweak some of the gameplay settings to allow for more stealth based gameplay and sneaking.
If you enjoyed Origins and Odyssey, then you are probably going to get a lot of mileage out of Valhalla. Speaking of mileage...the game world/map might not be nearly as large as Odyssey’s, but boy is it dense. There is enough to do in this game to keep you busy for 75+ hours easily. The main story can tend to drag a bit with a lot of content you are forced to consisting of “weakening enemy forces”. This typically consists of burning supplies and taking out camps spread across certain regions. That can feel like a chore, but the main story is quite compelling, even giving you plenty of choices to customize your Eivor.
There is also a huge improvement in the loot system from Origins and Odyssey. You are no longer showered with thousands of pieces of useless loot to dismantle, every weapon and piece of armor has a very specific purpose, stat, and look behind it. As such, you may play a large portion of the early game in the same type of armor, which may annoy some people. Fortunately, you can purchase armor location maps from your homestead cartographer not too far into the game which will help you customize the look and play of Eivor.
Fantastic game overall, and I’ve absolutely enjoyed my time in this world. Story can derail a bit and go to some crazy places, but it’s a journey worth sticking with.

I've been playing Assassin's Creed games for years and am very familiar with the franchise. It's always hard to keep things new and fresh when you've been invested for so long. That said, I've found this new version to be satisfying overall. It's very similar to the play style of Odyssey, so much so that it almost seemed to be a re-skinned game to me. There were a lot of glitches in the game play, which I found annoying. A franchised that's been around as long as this one has should be more polished upon its release. Of course, the narrative and story telling is as good as always, which is what we've come to expect from the series. Overall, I'm satisfied to play this game, minor complaints aside. There's a ton of things to do, but they do seem to get a bit repetitive after awhile.

This is a good but not an amazing game. Alot of this has to do with me playing games like ghost of tsushima and the last of us part 2 prior to this. Those games have amazing graphics and fluid combat. This game has lots of glitches that make things look awkward or made me have to replay certain missions because an objective was glitching and I couldn't intereract with them. I'm sure lots of the gliti will get fixed with updates. But there other things like the animation in combat being repetitive, the rigid way you have to go about completing missions. For example, you can only get raw materials which are used to upgrade your camp from raides on churches and nowhere else; due to the leveling system alot of raids are impossible until you level up so there is some level grinding to progress. Another issue is assassinations must be done by the hidden blade. I had a target in a locked church loaded with enemies I snuck in unnoticed and shot the target with an arrow to the head and no one knew it was me. But it didn't count because I didn't stab the body with the hidden blade. So I had to walk in through he front door stab am already dead body and alert the guards I was there. Worse I didn't even have to fight the guards. They just focused on fighting the cpu I was with while a sprinted out of the church. Once I left the church the guards outside didn't even bother chasing me and the cpu started talking to me as though she wasn't in the church getting stabbed by a bunch of spears. It's just really jarring how unrealistic the game is. Like you can have your crew sing songs on the bait but they clearly are not singing and the instruments playing aren't being played by anyone it's like you just turned the radio on inside your viking long boat. There alot of issues like this that made me miss the mentioned games above because they put so much attention to detail. But the story is interesting; alot of likeable characters but just not a polished games and it was played on ps5. I'd get on sale or just play the two games I mentioned for a fun experience.

I love the AC series, but so far this one is one of my favorites. It does still have few bug and the micro transactions are a little annoying, but overall this is a great open world game that you can get lost in!
