Following more than a year of speculation sparked by an Easter egg in The Division 2, Ubisoft has finally revealed that the next Assassin’s Creed game will feature a Norse setting. In a livestream hosted by the French publisher, artist BossLogic created an image that confirmed the upcoming title — Assassin’s Creed Valhalla — will star Vikings. The trailer for the game will premier on April 30 at 8 AM PT.
