AC: Valhalla - Metacritic average

It is worth recalling that, according to the reviewers, this is a really good production (82-85% average on Metacritic), which offers solid gameplay and engaging content. Unfortunately, the game is pulled down by bugs and technical problems. In our review, Assassin's Creed: Valhalla received 8/10.

"Valhalla is an attempt to please all fans and it is a successful attempt at that. Fans of RPG got the same thing as before, with a few good upgrades, and the old guard will finally be able to say that this is a genuine Assassin's Creed that lives up to the series heritage. With a bit of determination, you can play this game like the original installments; the plot is full references to the universe and offers a lot of new facts and mysteries. I definitely count myself among the old guard, and I am happy to see at least as much fan service here as in Origins. And I hope it stays this way, because the fact that we will eventually get another Assassin is as sure as the Sun. You'll see for yourself when reach the grand finale," wrote our reviewer.
