HHW Gaming Review: ‘Assassin’s Creed Valhalla: Dawn of Ragnarök’
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Ubisoft / Assassin’s Creed Valhalla: Dawn of Ragnarök Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is almost 2-years old, and yes, it’s still getting content added to it. The latest DLC, Dawn of Ragnarok, goes all-in on the Norse mythology, and it’s fun but isn’t the godly divine time we hoped it would be. Assassin’s Creed Valhalla was the first next-gen game we played on our new Xbox Series X in 2020. At the time, we called the game another solid entry into Ubisoft’s now polarizing Assassin’s Creed video game franchise. What gave the game its legs after launch was its well-thought-out post-game DLC content that took Eivor to France and Ireland, continuing Eivor’s journey. We were most intrigued about Ubisoft Sofia’s Dawn of Ragnarok, which promised to give us a much differ...
HHW Gaming: ‘Assassin’s Creed Valhalla: Dawn of Ragnarök’ Adds Some God-Like Flavor To The Franchise
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Ubisoft / Assassin’s Creed Valhalla Dawn of Ragnarök Since its 2020 release, Ubisoft’s latest entry into the Assassin’s Creed franchise, Valhalla, is still going strong thanks to solid post-launch content. The newest DLC, Dawn of Ragnarök, looks to give the game more legs well into 2022. Assassin’s Creed has always given its fans a mix of historical stealth action with a dab of mythology. With the Dawn of Ragnarök expansion, Ubisoft Sofia is doing things differently by fully embracing the Norse mythology introduced by Valhalla by allowing players to take control of the most legendary deity ever, Odin. In Valhalla, your character Eivor could speak with Valka the Seer, who blesses you with her special brew that allows you to take a trippy trip to Asgar...

HHW Gaming Preview: ‘Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla’ Features “Viking Rap Battles,” Raids & Hella Fades
Source: Ubisoft / Assassin’s Creed Valhalla Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, the next installment in Ubisoft’s famed Assassin’s Creed franchise, is about to drop in about under a month. I had a chance to experience a whopping 6 hours of gameplay of the game in an exclusive preview, which left me feeling very optimistic about the forthcoming title. Pre-COVID-19, Ubisoft would have invited us out to get hands-on with the game, but they had to improvise like every other industry and company. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to play due to hardware limitations, but Ubisoft set it up where I had my own personal “tour guide” for 6 hours to show me a sizeable chunk of the game before it launches. In Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, we are transported to the lush world of ninth-century England, ditching the bright...

Source: Microsoft / Xbox Microsoft has officially put all of its next-generation cards on the table. Due to a leak shared by Windows Central, Microsoft confirmed the $299 price for the less-powerful Xbox Series S next-gen console but still left its release date in the air while promising to share new info with us “soon.” Well, that information came a lot sooner than we thought it would. I know it’s been a wait for price, date, pre-order date. Thanks to the community for their support and encouragement 🙂 Great to see the reactions, really proud of how the team handled the unscripted announce (was supposed to be next week but oh well…).

Mark Your Calendars: Ubisoft Announces Ubisoft Forward Digital Event Coming July 12
Source: Ubisoft / Ubisoft Forward With multiple gaming shows around the world being canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, gaming studios and console makers have to take matters into their own hands. Sony and Microsoft both held events to stay ahead of leaks and bring gamers up to speed on their next-generation consoles, the PS5 and Xbox Series X. Both events were not well received due to not living up to the expectations both companies put on them. Fresh off its reveal of their forthcoming game, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, Ubisoft has announced it will be holding a live stream event called Ubisoft Forward in July. In a press release, it is being described as an E3-style showcase with exclusive game news, exciting reveals, and plenty more. Besides being told to “save to the date,” there is ...
