5 Reasons to Pre-Order Assassin’s Creed Valhalla & 4 Reasons to Wait

Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed Valhalla arrives next week. And while there are some great reasons to pre-order a copy right now, there are also some reasons to hold off.

The Assassin’s Creed series is leaving Ancient Greece and it’s headed to ancient Norway and Britain. Assassin’s Creed Valhalla puts you in the shoes of a viking who travels to Britain and encounters King Alfred and the Saxons.

Like previous iterations of the game, you’ll explore an open world with quests to complete, enemies to defeat, and weapons to upgrade. There are also some new features including a new settlement component that you’ll upgrade with new clan members and structures.

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla arrives on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Windows PC, and Google Stadia on November 10th. Microsoft’s new Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S launch the same day.

The game is also heading to Sony’s PS5, but it lands a couple of days later on November 12th.

With the release date just a few days away, some of you might be tempted to put in a pre-order ahead of the game’s arrival. The game, which comes in a whopping six different editions, is currently on sale at retailers like Amazon and GameStop.

And while that might be a good idea for some of you, others are much better off waiting until the holidays or later before buying the game.
