I sometimes can’t believe the sheer talents of some artists, the audacity to which they capture the beauty of our world in their works.

An artbook that serves as a longship, a Drakkar that sails you through the waves of inspiration and the work put by the great artists that researched, imagined, and created the ideas and concepts into building the world, atmosphere, feel, and characters of Assassin's Creed Valhalla.
You can see the amount of research, time and love that was poured into this ambitious project, a phenomenal source of education for those aiming to live in the flesh and bones of a Viking, to raid with him/her, travel, explore, live the story, and discover England during the Vikings invasion.
With this knowledge of the concepts and the inspiration behind it, now my new gameplay will be different, with more details of the landscape becoming clearer 🪓
This game is a masterpiece, I salute all the artists and everyone who worked on it 💚

Review in Spanish:

Me gusta mucho la saga Assassins creed pero el assassins creed Valhalla cómo juego se assassins creed no me gusta mucho sin embargo su estilo artístico es impresionante por esa razón y por ser un fan de assassins creed me compre el libro.

Debo de decir que mucho de los diseños de los scenarios me gustaron. También la atención de los detalles tanto te personajes como scenarios.

Pero hubieron otras cosas como el diseño de algunos personajes que me dejaron a deber.

I love seeing the Art of any videogame and how it all came along. I love the concept art. I wish they'd shown more of Eivor (Female Version) and the designs behind her, especially the ending appearance. I also wish they showed more of the designs of the other characters, and the thought processes behind that. As well as how the Isu are more involved and the level designs of the glitches. Overall I enjoyed rifling through this and getting an insider look at how AC Valhalla came to be.

I loved it, it’s beautiful, creative and so inspiring. Maybe for the next one put some more comments of the artists and designers. I would love to hear more about what were the challenges and what choices they had to make to create the final product etc…

I admire Ubisoft’s teams around the world and the magnificent games they bring to us, especially the Assassin’s Creed franchise. I can’t wait for another art book to come out!

Gran recomendación para los amantes de la saga Assassin's Creed y para los fieles seguidores de la mitología nórdica. Es un viaje por el mundo visual creado para este juego que no te puedes perder. Incluyen numerosos bocetos y artes conceptuales que te dejan con la boca abierta. Lo recomiendo muchísimo.
