Assassin's Creed Valhalla: Wrath of the Druids Reviews
The first expansion pack for Assassin's Creed Valhalla can cut both ways, as good visuals, great music and deep gameplay on one side and repetitive game design, shallow story and weak character design on the other cancel eachother out.

Assassin's Creed Valhalla took lessons from Assassin's Creed Origins. In both cases, the first extension does not introduce almost any novelties and is damn tedious. I hope that the attack on Paris will be more phenomenal.

Wrath of the Druids is an excellent expansion for Assassin’s Creed Valhalla and offers exactly what most people are looking for: a fun excuse to revisit this gorgeous world and spend some more time with it.
New map of Ireland is Awesome and druids are cool. Just do not expect many new improvements in the game.

Assassin's Creed Valhalla: The Wrath of the Druids is a remarkable expansion of Assassin's Creed Valhalla that nourishes the game with new content with its own history and that despite not adding anything to the main game leads us to an interesting and personality adventure, in a place of the most captivating.

Wrath of the Druids is near perfect in its execution, a flawless combination of challenge and accessibility that paves the way for a glorious adventure into the darker side of Irish mythology and legend. Everything has been carefully packaged with incredible visuals, worthwhile new endeavors, and a cast of characters just as memorable as the original game.
Assassin's Creed Valhalla: Wrath of the Druids is a solid stand-alone story experience that takes place during Valhalla's storyline. While boasting a decent story, it never breaks the mold of the established formula, feeling more like "yet another kingmaker story" rather than an adventure that lives up to the potential of the setting. It has a few new ideas and spins a few old mechanics into a new form, but at the end of the day, it plays it way too safe, which causes it to feel uninspired. If you loved Valhalla, this DLC will give you more of that, but if you're already fatigued by its repetitive gameplay, Wrath of the Druids won't change that.
If you're someone who wanted more even after completing everything Valhalla had to offer, then you should definitely get Wrath of the Druids.
(7/10) Apart from being one of the most stunning, atmospheric depictions of Dublin in recent memory, Wrath of the Druids adds another 10-15 hours of content to a game that’s already loaded with it. For the most part, that content is good, I like the focus on building up Dublin’s reputation by supplying resources, and performing Kings Requests with sub-categories, but the DLC goes back to these mission types a bit too often over the course of the campaign, and ultimately feels a bit stale and not quite varied enough for it.
Despite the repeating of the same type of missions, new characters and stories make this DLC intriguing enough.

Those who are looking for something fresh or bold, at least in terms of gameplay, they will not find it.

Wrath of the Druids is an excellent first DLC for Assassin's Creed Valhalla. The expansion offers a challenging new enemy, a comprehensive story, and a beautiful country to explore. Not everything is perfect, but if this is the benchmark for future DLC, then players will be very happy!

Assassin Creed Valhalla: Wrath of the Druids is the DLC with a large amount of content, but no innovative changes in gameplay have been made. For those who are new to the game, it is a DLC that can be played together, but there is no power enough to force who have played the main part a long time ago to reinstall the game.

Assassin's Creed: Valhalla "Wrath of the Druids" is the type of dlc Ubisoft has accustomed us as a rule, with certain exceptions. It has a well-argued story, spun and respecting the traditions of the culture to which it refers, as well as adding extras at the gameplay level and several new mechanics. Finally, enjoy a really beautiful landscape and sound pieces that will delight our trip at every step. A dlc worth acquiring.

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla: Wrath of the Druids is an excellent extension of what the base game offers fans. Its focus on uncovering a mystery is embedded in the campaign and missions. Roaming around Ireland provides a new playground for fans to explore but at the cost of a few empty areas. Still, there’s so much to discover here that just being able to spend more time in this world is reason enough to return.
An intriguing story that demands your attention, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla: Wrath of the Druids brings the fun in narrative and less so when it comes to less significant quests.
There are some new brilliant ideas like the Druid enemies and the new locales are a sight to behold but all in all, this just ten to fifteen more hours the same Assassin’s Creed experience which is the best news for the die-hard fans of the franchise.

If you liked Valhalla, which I did, and want more of it, then you’ll probably like Wrath of the Druids. But the sudden drop in quality of writing and insignificant gameplay additions adds less than I wanted or expected. Let’s hope the next expansion provides a better setting and properly explores the main game’s fallout.
The new setting has plenty of charm and is just different enough to differentiate it from England, the story is well done and moves at a good pace, and there’s a lot to see and do.
