This product is like new. At NexWave Games, like new means:
Additionally, all discs at NexWave Games are carefully inspected and assessed for quality. When discs arrive, we do not accept any that are so badly damaged that they are unlikely to work. We only accept discs with light scratches at most. Discs with scratches are then treated in our professional disc repair machine. By warming the disc and polishing it with soft brushes, these machines can remove a very thin layer from the disc. This removes the layer containing surface scratches and improves the disc’s readability. This ensures the disc works properly, even on consoles with ageing lasers that have difficulty reading games! Great news for the player.
Assassin's Creed Valhalla for Xbox One
Assassin's Creed Valhalla for Xbox One follows Eivor, a Viking who travels with the Raven Clan from Norway to ninth-century England. You establish Ravensthorpe and seek allies, resources and a safe future for the clan across several kingdoms. Each region has its own story about local rulers and conflicts. Conversations and decisions can influence relationships and later events, while the main journey connects historical figures with the struggle between the Hidden Ones and the Order of the Ancients.
Eivor uses axes, swords, bows, shields and a hidden blade. You can combine two weapons, unlock abilities and improve equipment with gathered materials. From the longship, raiders attack fortifications and monasteries to obtain building supplies for the settlement. There you open a blacksmith, barracks and other services. Exploration moves between open fields, rivers, villages, ruins and large strongholds stormed during story missions.
The complete base journey is for one player and can be played without active multiplayer. The Drakkar Edition and Ultimate Edition use the same main game, but could originally include digital packs or expansion rights. Unused codes, season passes and separate physical extras are included only when the product page explicitly says so. According to the title, the Xbox disc works on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S; technical enhancements and required downloads differ by system.
Region and language
Our Xbox One games are PAL editions and come with a Dutch or English box, unless stated otherwise. By default, you receive the version for the European market. We note it in the product details if the region is different or the box is in another language. In almost all cases, the game is playable at least in English, and often in the other five common European languages too.
Both Xbox editions offered use the same base game of Assassin's Creed Valhalla. According to the product title, the disc supports Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S; edition codes, expansions and account services are not guaranteed.
Drakkar Edition refers to the version on the product page. Digital bonus content may have been supplied through a one-time code and is not promised as unused or permanently available.
Manual
Assassin's Creed Valhalla for Xbox One was originally released without a paper manual. This edition therefore has no separate instruction booklet. Its absence does not mean that an item is missing from the original package.
Instructions for the controls and rules are provided in the game. Any additional leaflets or advertising inserts are not manuals and are only included if stated in the product details. We use the label “No Manual” for copies missing a manual that was originally supplied. You should therefore not expect a printed booklet with this game unless a special edition explicitly states otherwise.
The history of Assassin's Creed Valhalla
Ubisoft Montreal led development of Assassin's Creed Valhalla with contributions from several Ubisoft studios. The game launched on 10 November 2020 for Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, Windows and other services; the PlayStation 5 version followed shortly afterwards. The project built on Origins and Odyssey, but moved the historical journey to the Viking age and made settlement growth part of progression.
The story is divided into regional alliances. The campaign therefore consists of connected episodes about kings, nobles and clans, alongside Eivor's personal bond with Sigurd and the mythical storyline. Combat retained levels and abilities, but gave equipment pieces a clearer individual identity and let players wield two weapons at once. Raids link combat directly to Ravensthorpe's development.
After release, Valhalla received seasonal events, free quests and paid expansions. That later content is not automatically part of every used edition. Ultimate Edition originally included the Season Pass and an Ultimate Pack; Drakkar Edition was also sold with digital bonus content. The description therefore separates the base game on disc from codes and services that may be expired, used or tied to an account, keeping the core of both offered editions clear.
Similar games for Xbox One
Mirage tells the story of Basim's youth in compact Baghdad and returns more strongly to stealth, parkour and targeted assassinations. Valhalla follows Eivor across a much larger England and combines alliances, raids and settlement building with role-playing growth. Both entries share characters and the Hidden Ones, but their scale and pace are clearly different.
Odyssey takes place in ancient Greece and uses sea travel, mercenaries and plentiful levelled equipment. Valhalla retains choices and a large world, but ties the journey to Ravensthorpe, regional alliances and attacks with a Viking crew. Odyssey lets Kassandra or Alexios sail between islands; Valhalla mainly takes Eivor along rivers and across the English countryside.
Origins tells the founding of the Hidden Ones through Bayek in Egypt and introduced the role-playing foundation for later games. Valhalla builds on it with more choices, dual-wielding and a growing settlement. Origins centres on Bayek's personal revenge and one country; Valhalla spreads Eivor's long campaign across kingdoms, allies and separate regional stories.
Assassin's Creed III Remastered has Connor fight in the American Revolution and refreshes an older design. Valhalla provides greater freedom in equipment, abilities and choices and uses a larger open world. Both combine natural areas, cities and historical power struggles, but Valhalla makes raids and the player's own settlement permanent systems.
Middle-earth: Shadow of War mixes open combat, stealth and fortress assaults with an army of recognisable orcs. Valhalla also has large assaults and personal enemies, but tells a historical journey with fixed alliances and clan building. Shadow of War centres on the Nemesis system; Valhalla on Eivor's development, regional stories and Ravensthorpe.
