Assassin’s Creed Valhalla

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is a 2020 action role-playing video game developed by Ubisoft Montreal and published by Ubisoft. It is the twelfth major instalment in the Assassin’s Creed series and the successor to 2018’s Assassin’s Creed Odyssey. Principally set in the years 872–878 AD, the game recounts a fictional story during the Viking expansions into the British Isles. Players control Eivor Varinsdottir, a Viking raider who becomes embroiled in the centuries-old conflict between the Assassin Brotherhood, who fight for peace and liberty, and the Templar Order, who desire peace through control. The modern-day portion of the story is set in the 21st century and follows Layla Hassan, an Assassin who relives Eivor’s memories so as to find a way to save the Earth from destruction.

In Assassin’s Creed Valhalla we see that having a newer or beefier CPU doesn’t really make much of a difference in the average FPS. We do see a 5% increase in performance over the 5900X, but at well over 100 FPS, it’s unlikely to be noticed anyway. What is likely to be noticed however, is in the 1% lows, where we see a comfortable 15% uplift, giving us an overall more fluid gameplay that sits ahead of its predecessors and competitor.
