From the team behind Black Flag follow-up Rogue.
This system is called the Hugr-rip, as it literally pulls the abilities of foes from their bodies.
(Hugr is used here as a rough equivalence for the Norse concept of a soul.)
(A very good thing, as Valhalla’s combat could often drag on.)
The Power of the Raven, meanwhile, is acquired from giant birds.
Each Hugr-rip power can be upgraded, and your raven ability can be buffed to include Raven Assassination.
Sadly, this does not mean it’s possible for you to peck enemies to death.
Gameplay wise, while very pretty, this is so far, so much Valhalla.
A little later, Odin homes in on the person he’s tracking.
(So yes, for those who seek it out, expect more Isu lore.)
Ubisoft Sofia did it with Rogue, and looks set to do it again here.
