For PC players of any game, there’s nothing worse than finally launching a new title and going to the graphics options menu, only to find it lacking. If anti-aliasing, motion blur, and all the other graphical options that make up a game’s visuals can’t be tweaked, well, what’s the point? Luckily, folks booting up Assassin’s Creed Valhalla on their rigs won’t have that issue. A new video from Ubisoft details the robust list of settings present in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. The game has just about anything players could dream of and then some.
Starting with screen settings, the usual suspects are all there. Players can toy with the game’s brightness, enable High Dynamic Range and turn on a colorblind mode. What stands out are options for maximum luminance and exposure, the first of which I’ve never seen in a game.
Total graphical control
Assassin’s Creed Valhalla‘s graphics settings are where things start getting interesting. Again, the usual settings that players can expect are all there: overall graphics quality, resolution, anti-aliasing, and RTX settings. Whatever players think they should get, they probably will. Further down on that menu though are options for just about everything. Players will be able to tweak the amount of world details in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla such as the clutter scattered around in it. If that wasn’t enough, players can also individually tweak environment textures and character textures, so just about everything in the game can be individually messed with at least a bit.
For those worried about accessibility in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, the game also boasts a full menu of settings that should make anyone feel comfortable playing. Besides colorblind options, players can toggle the size and style of subtitles, menu narration, and even change how quicktime events play out. Some of the game’s gorier settings can also be toggled, for those with squeamish stomachs. Assassination sequences, blood, dismemberment and nudity are all on the table for players to fuss around with.
Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is due to release on November 10 via the Epic Games Store and the Ubisoft Store. The game will also release at a later date this year for Stadia.
