Discovery Tour: Viking Age, the upcoming educational mode for Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, will arrive as a free expansion on 19th October.
A standalone version will launch for £15.99 on PC on the same date, and then on PlayStation and Xbox in early 2022. It’s the first time there will be an option to purchase the mode separately, after previous versions launched as part of the Ancient Egypt-set Origins and the Ancient Greece-set Odyssey.
In the past (pun intended), Discovery Tour let you wander the game’s world and take part in interactive tours, or examine historical objects and locations to learn about their real-world origins. In contrast, Viking Age will be more narrative-led, and let you “step into the shoes of Viking and Anglo-Saxon characters from the time while living out their stories and adventures”.
