Thunderbolts and lightning, very very frightening!
Ahead of Ubisoft’s big notE3 show this weekend, gameplay footage ofAssassin’s Creed Valhallacontinues to leak. Followingthe half-hour of gameplayseen earlier this week, now someone’s come up with seven minutes of the female Eivor in a boss battle against some sort of “demon goddess”. It is, appropriately, well metal.
I am quite glad to see Ubisoft leaning into old British myths and magic, sure, why not. Presumably that’s Cordelia, mythological daughter of the mythological kingLeir of Britain- probably best known through Shakespeare’s play, King Lear. Wikipedia isnow telling methat Leir’s dad, Bladud, was a necromancer who died after he constructed artificial wings then flew into a wall. That’s the sort of mundane end I love to see on a fanciful story. Not that anyone knows if any of them ever existed.
Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is due to launch later this year onUplayandthe Epic Games Store. Maybe we’ll hear an actual release date and see some sanctioned footage duringthe Ubisoft Forward notE3 streamon Sunday.
