About the Ubisoft behind the scenes film
In October 2018, the Assassin's Creed Valallah's core team travelled to Norway and England. Their goal was to get inspiration in the field. They explain why they needed to breathe in the air and get it into their bones before they actually started making the game.
Assassins' Creed is certified as an 18-rated game. We recommend using the Assassin's Creed lesson plan for students in Year 13. We offer the alternative lesson plan, Immortals, for younger students.
