Vikings greatly valued their standing with the gods and the importance of that will be shown in Valhalla. A perfect example of this is in the trailer as we watch our lead character, Eivor's will start to waver in what seems like a losing battle only to catch a glimpse of a shrouded old man across the battlefield. Then instantly he's gone in a flash, seemingly turned into a raven,and Eivor shouts "Odin is with us" as a motivating battle cry to his fledgling army.

Assassin's Creed has always had some supernatural elements, but prided itself on having historically accurate worlds. In Origins and Odyssey, Ubisoft decided to lean more into the mystical elements by offering boss fights against enemies like Anubis, Medusa and The Minotaur and it seems that trend will continue.

Even the game's title "Valhalla" has a supernatural element to it, because in Norse mythology Valhalla is a majestic, hall located in Asgard ruled by the god Odin. Here, dead warriors who died in combat can party and drink to their heart's desires with Nordic heroes and kings.

Will other Norse gods such as Thor and Loki appear or will we fight more mythical beasts? We'll know soon.
