Assassin’s Creed Valhalla: explain what flyting duels will be like, Viking rap

The title of Ubisoft Montreal will feature these dialectical battles, which correspond to the royal tradition of the Viking age.

Ubisoft Montreal wants to transfer all kinds of activities and customs of the Viking culture to Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. The new video game in the saga scheduled for the end of the year will have flyting dialectical battles, as was confirmed weeks ago, but now the operation of this type of Viking rap that already existed back in the 9th century has been detailed.

Ashraf Ismail, creative director of the title, has starred in the latest video published through the official account of the saga to delve into new curiosities of the work. Broadly speaking, it will be possible to hold conversations with the rest of the inhabitants of the tribes or towns with different options when selecting dialogues; some competitions in which you must choose the most appropriate rhyme, the most ridiculous, to "win" the interlocutor.

“This was one of the fun things to do when they were sitting down drinking alcohol. They began to drink and insulted each other with rhymes ”, explains Ismail, who confirms his commitment to the historical fidelity of the time through the support of the Nordics.

This will be one of the many activities based on communication anticipated days ago, when it was confirmed that there would be diplomacy when we faced enemies. In other words, it will not be necessary to resolve everything with physical violence, but that system of dialogues will also allow reaching agreements and pacts.
