Assassin's Creed Valhalla: Dawn of Ragnarok Reviews
Eivor steps into the shoes of Odin for a grand stomp around a gorgeously realized fantasy realm in what has become my favorite Assassin's Creed experience of all time. Great writing, gorgeous visuals, and a ridiculous amount of content make this DLC worthy of being a stand alone game. Beyond being highly recommended, Dawn of Ragnarok is an absolutely necessity for Assassin's Creed fans.
Assassin's Creed Valhalla: Dawn of Ragnarök is the biggest and most ambitious expansion yet, with great new powers to utilise.
Assassin's Creed Valhalla - The Dawn of Ragnarok allowed me to return to Assassin's Creed Valhalla with a smile. More of the same, only in a tastier sauce. Definitely the best story addition to this installment of the Ubisoft series.

Assassin's Creed Valhalla: Dawn of Ragnarök easily eclipses both The Siege of Paris and Wrath of the Druids, serving up a good 40 hours-worth of top-notch action, exploration and challenges across a huge new world map. Combat here is enlivened by Eivor's new Hugr-Rip abilities, skills which also freshen up the game's puzzles and traversal, and the fantastical nature of the story leads to some of the biggest and best boss face-offs we've seen in the series to date. Newcomers may feel a little lost to begin with, there's a lot to get your head around here, but fans of Valhalla should be delighted with this deliciously fantastical new addition to the base game.
Assassin's Creed Valhalla: Dawn of Ragnarok continues to showcase Ubisoft's greatest works. It's a rewarding addition to an already impressive list of DLC, designed for one of the best RPGs they've ever made.
After completing Dawn of Ragnarök one can very easily realize how beautiful it is when a studio takes something good from the base and forgets the ties it may have to create something new. Here we will see everything fantastic that Valhalla has taken to a terrain that, although we were already able to visit in the main adventure, is shown in all its splendor and in a hypervitamin way. I know that it may not be to the liking of lovers of the adventures of Ezio and company and even these can consider that this thing we have in hand is not an Assassin's Creed, and reason is not lacking: this expansion goes further.

While it stumbles greatly in execution, Assassin's Creed Valhalla - Dawn of Ragnarök reignites the magic of the main game with a vast realm to explore and myriad secrets to discover using the new Hugr powers. It's still a ton of fun, just don't expect the story to be all that coherent.
Assassin's Creed Valhalla - Dawn of Ragnarok is a sizeable expansion offering a gorgeous new realm to explore, memorable characters, while new abilities such as the Hugr-Rip adds a new dimension to combat and traversal. Beyond that it's more of the same however, so that'll determine whether or not you'll want to dive back into Valhalla once again.
Dawn of Ragnarok is the perfect expansion for what the latest trilogy in the Assassin's Creed franchise set out to tell. With a fun new world to explore, new skills and, most importantly, a very well written story that should please longtime fans of the series.

Thanks to its new weapons, excellent characters and nuanced narrative, Dawn Of Ragnarök comes closer than ever before to breaking free of AC Valhalla’s template. Though it can’t entirely escape some over-familiar mission types, Dawn Of Ragnarök does a great job of pulling together several strands from the main game and prior expansions. Svartalfheim and Odin’s quest give AC Valhalla renewed energy and should please both fans and maybe entice some newcomers to dip into the franchise. Dawn Of Ragnarök is a substantial and overall impressive addition to the series.
There's a tonne of great stuff to see and do in Dawn of Ragnarök and just by existing it gives me hope for the future of Assassin's Creed. If Ubisoft continues to be willing to throw the rulebook out and experiment with the IP, we're in for some very good times indeed.
One of the most spectacular expansions in the history of Assassin's Creed and, without a doubt, the most extensive, with good stories to tell, although in the background it does not provide so many playable novelties.

The new ideas Dawn of Ragnarök plays around with are fun, but it can’t fully flourish under the weight of inconsistent writing and janky combat.
And thus begins your <strike>journey</strike> saga.
Ubisoft Sofia has delivered such a big expansion with Dawn of Ragnarok that it can almost be seen as a new game. Especially since the story of Eivor does not continue, but rather the saga of Odin is told. During the approximately fifteen-hour story you will encounter some missions that feel familiar, but it should not spoil the fun.

Assassin's Creed Valhalla: Dawn of Ragnarok is an amazing expansion that introduces us to a lot of new characters, both friends and foes alike.
Dawn of Ragnarok is a bit shallow and nothing more of a "more of the same". Still a decent content for the Assassin's Creed Valhalla fans, but it could have been much more.

Assassin's Creed Valhalla Dawn of Ragnarok is solid, but doesn't break its original format. The open world and quest logic hasn't changed much, but there are little innovations in the combat and stealth systems.

Assassin's Creed Valhalla: Dawn of Ragnarök is a very continuous expansion, both for good and for bad, and that presents us with some other novelty that, without getting it right at all, gives a small breath of fresh air to a content that, for those who have been left wanting more adventures with Eivor / Odin, they will want to enjoy without fail.

Assassin's Creed Valhalla: Dawn of Ragnarok is a solid expansion that introduces some interesting gameplay mechanics and plenty of new content that, at the end of the day, doesn't change how the game is played in a significant way. After a long base game and two expansions, Dawn of Ragnarok definitely needed to be something more to become an essential purchase, as only those who haven't had enough of Assassin's Creed Valhalla will fully appreciate the coming of Ragnarok and the end of an age.
