Unsurprisingly, Assassin's Creed Valhalla isn't that historically accurate

This will likely come as a surprise to no one, but Ubisoft’s latest sneaky murder adventure, Asassin’s Creed Valhalla, doesn’t seem to be very historically accurate. It’s nothing huge or revelatory – I’m sure we all know Vikings didn’t truly have magical ravens they could see through the eyes of, after all. But if you’re interested in the history of England and Norway, I’d go careful taking too many lessons from Valhalla.

For a much better lesson, we should probably listen to the AskHistorians subreddit, who hosted a cool Q&A to offer their Viking knowledge to anyone with questions about the historical setting of Valhalla.
