At long, long last, we have finally analyzed the Modern Day Ending of Assassin's Creed Valhalla!

Welcome back to our series of videos dedicated to the ending of Assassin’s Creed Valhalla and the context surrounding it!

In the eleventh and final episode of this series we are going to briefly discuss the tangled and inconsistent narrative threads that came before Valhalla and how the game tried to reconnect all of them all the while trying to redeem Layla’s character.

The video will also touch upon the Animus Anomalies before delving into all the little details and intricacies about Basim’s plan, how that is connected to Desmond’s sacrifice from Assassin’s Creed 3 and how he manipulated Layla towards his own goals, while also providing a confirmation to a theory that fans have been discussing for over a decade!

Finally, we are going to discuss Layla’s sacrifice and her encounter with Desmond in the Grey and what might be in store for Basim in the future!

We just want to thank you for joining us in this sort of adventure amidst the hidden meanings of Valhalla’s main game, and for bearing with us, waiting this long as we analyzed and shared our opinions on what we believe to be the most interesting narrative aspects of the game!
