These disparate arcs have frustrated “Creed” lore enthusiasts for years, mostly because the games just didn’t seem to know what to do with them. “Valhalla” makes a Herculean-effort to tie all of the above (and more) as part of a cohesive, narrative science fiction saga. Due to the popularity of the series, Ubisoft made a decision to release new open-world epics in the “Creed” series every year before scaling back in 2017 with the current trilogy saga that started with “Origins” in Egypt. For Eivor, of course the ancient gods were named Odin and such. Eivor sees the ancient race as old Norse men and women speaking their language, so that’s how we the players view them as well.
