Assassin's Creed director Valhalla promises "a long marketing campaign"

Assassin's Creed director Valhalla promises "a long marketing campaign"

Some gamers have been disappointed by the footage shown during the Inside Xbox, which barely shows a couple of seconds of gameplay.

Everyone looked forward to enjoying the first few minutes of Assassin's Creed Valhalla gameplay. Ubisoft announced that gameplay would be shown during Inside Xbox. However, the French company presented a kind of teaser that can hardly be classified as gameplay. Ashraf Ismail, creative director of the video game, is aware of the anger and has published a tweet to calm the waters: Ubisoft has plans to teach much more about the new adventures of the assassins thanks to its promotional campaign.

"No wonder you expected to see more today," says Ismail. "We have a long marketing campaign ahead, so you will enjoy in-depth gameplay and receive much more information about the title," he says. The creative wanted to thank users for their passion and asked for patience and kindness. "It will be worth it." The truth is that before Assassin's Creed Valhalla appeared on the Inside Xbox, it was already leaked that what Ubisoft had prepared was practically a snack of what would come later.

Valhalla will not be as extensive as others in the saga

Assassin's Creed Odyssey, the franchise's previous title, was not without criticism. Many of them focused on the size of the video game, too broad for some sharp voices. Everything foretold that Valhalla would follow in the footsteps of its predecessor with an even bigger world. However, the head of communication for Ubisoft for the Middle East published on Twitter that the team has taken note and that the new production will not be as vast as other installments in the series.

Assassin's Creed Valhalla will go on sale later this year on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, PC, and Google Stadia. Like other intergeneration products, it will make use of Smart Delivery, a feature of the Microsoft console that updates games of this type to their best version on Xbox Series (and for free).
