Who fancies a singalong to “Smack my bishop”?
Players running around inAssassin’s Creed Valhallaover the last week or so have already uncovered a few Easter eggs here and there: nods to other gameslike Dark Souls, for example, and evena quest rife with Tolkien references. But our very own guides editor Jake has found one that’s much more heartwarming -a tribute to The Prodigy frontman, Keith Flint, who sadly passed away last year.
On your Viking adventures, you can stumble upon a spiky-haired man named Keith, hanging out with a band in Essex (or Essexe), the home county of The Prodigy. Chatting with him starts a world event (Valhalla’s version of sidequests) as he invites you to come and dance along to some tunes.
I wonder if they taking requests.
This will pop up on screen once the world event is over, in case you weren’t completely sure this was a Prodigy reference.
There are clearly some Prodigy fans over at Ubisoft, and this is a great reference for other fans of the band to find. Games are a weird yet lovely way to immortalise and pay tribute to the things we love.
If you’ve yet to jump into this game yet, Alice Bee recommends it in herAssassin’s Creed Valhalla reviewsaying: “it’s a lively grab bag of all the best bits from Assassin’s Creed games past.”
Jake has been hard at work putting together guides for it, too, so if you need any help check out his excellentAssassin’s Creed Valhalla walkthrough, as well as Katharine’sAssassin’s Creed Valhalla performance guideto help you keep it running smoothly on your PC.
