Dark Horse will release a brand new comic book for Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla that will serve as a prequel for the upcoming expansion, Dawn of Ragnarok. The book is titled Forgotten Myths and is slated to release on March 16th, 2022.
Additionally, Ubisoft revealed their plans to add 60 FPS support for Assassin’s Creed: Origins.
“Thor, Baldr, and Heimdall have discovered trouble lurking at Asgard’s borders once again. A mighty fire giant from Muspelheim is threatening the land of the Æsir. In the aftermath of the raging battle, Baldr discovers that the Muspels are now massing at the gates of Svartalfheim and begins a journey to bring peace to the realms.”
Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla – Dawn of Ragnarok is a massive expansion that will be heading out the gate in Valhalla in 2022. According to the dev team, it features a whopping 35 hours of story content.
Developed by Ubisoft Sofia (the studio behind Assassin’s Creed Rogue and Assassin’s Creed Origins – The Curse of the Pharaohs), Dawn of Ragnarök focuses entirely on Odin (aka Havi), and is set after the events of the Asgard and Jotunheim arcs found in the main campaign. This new adventure puts the one-eyed god on a journey to save their son, Baldr, held captive by the fire giant Surtr in the dwarven realm of Svartalfheim – a mythical new world about one-third the size of England. Under occupation from the fiery realm of Muspelheim (as well as icy Jotunheim), Svartalfheim has become a hostile, lava-filled landscape patrolled by flame-wielding enemies, some of whom can do things like revive their fallen comrades. To survive, Odin will need to find hidden Shelters across the world, and seek help from the dwarves who’ve taken refuge in them.
