So, let\u2019s run though some different tidbits you need to know about Assassin\u2019s Creed Valhalla with our weapons and combat guide. Ubisoft are remaining steadfast in their approach to refresh Assassin\u2019s Creed, by maintaining the more action-orientated approach seen in Assassin\u2019s Creed: Origins and Assassin\u2019s Creed Odyssey. Valhalla offers another vast, open-world \u2013 this time full of fearsome Vikings \u2013 and it\u2019s only fitting that Eivor is kitted out with the most appropriate implements the 9th century has to offer. In addition to this, the game also has some combat changes, in particular the Mortal Kombat-esque brutal kills, and featuring the biggest variety of enemies an Assassin\u2019s Creed game has ever seen. Valhalla is sure to be a place that you will need some foresight to gain the advantage of going in. So, these are all the confirmed weapons and combat changes for Assassin\u2019s Creed Valhalla. Weapons Now, it\u2019s usual to expect weapon changes as we move from game to game. Some are short-range and others will be useful from a slightly greater distance, such as the spear. The list of those we know about already can be seen below: Bare Hands &#8211; Axes (Dane Axes, Bearded Axes ) &#8211; Hammers &#8211; Bow (Light, Hunter &#038; Predator) &#8211; Spear &#8211; Daggers &#8211; Greatswords &#8211; Flails &#8211; Sword &#8211; Shield (Heavy &#038; Light) &#8211; Hidden Blade &#8211; The Hidden Blade has been overhauled in Assassin\u2019s Creed Valhalla, with the blade now appearing on top of Eivor\u2019s wrist, as opposed to the blade living up to its moniker and being tucked away underneath. This is a deliberate design choice to compliment Eivor\u2019s character. Best early-game must have weapon Our weapon of choice for the early game is definitely the Iron-Star. This can be attained to the north-westerly area of Kjotve\u2019s fortress in Rygjafylke. This weapon has great stats for a starting weapon, and increases your attack after a heavy finisher. Remember to use Odin\u2019s Sight when in the area to locate your prize. Combined with a dagger weapon for extra speed and agility, the Iron-Star is sure to help you nimbly slash through your enemies on the raids with your crew. Combat Weapons are not the only thing to have been shaken up for the November release, however. This will be the first Assassin\u2019s Creed game on next-gen consoles, so with that comes a boatload of combat features we never saw last time out. These include the following: New, violent kills &#8211; Enemies can now be dismembered &#8211; Enemies can co-ordinate attacks against you &#8211; Fallen enemies can be used as a weapon against you &#8211; Gear can be constantly modified throughout the game to keep a piece that you like with you throughout &#8211; Animal companions that can help you, such as bears &#8211; Assassin\u2019s Creed combat trailer If you want to see even more of the gore and combat of the new AC game, the gameplay trailer is a good place to look. Here, we see a lot of these new features in action. Timestamp at 2:44. So, there you have it. Already an array of dangerous tools and mechanics are known with many more still to be revealed.
