Division 2 devs insist they had no idea that the next 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Assassin’s Creed game would be called 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Valhalla when they put a fun easter egg in the game.

If you’ve spent any amount of time in the wasteland of Washington DC, you might have come across a poster for a fake opera that would have played at the JFK Center had the world not ended in a bio-engineered plague. Called “Valhalla,” the poster features a more 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:his♑torically accurate depiction of a Norseman than the upcoming Assassin’s Creed game, but it also is very clearly a reference to Assassin’s Creed in general.

Fi🐲rst there’s the garb, which is white and red--the franchise’s✃ signature colors. Then there’s the fact that the Viking is holding an Apple of Eden, which is basically the series’ MacGuffin.

The Division 2 came out in February of 2019, which means that this may be the earliest sign of what was to come from Assassin’s Creed. However, Ubisoft Montr🌃eal’s Darby McDevitt insists that this wౠas entirely a fluke.

“You know what’s crazy about that? That was a complete coincidence,” McDevitt told Australian outlet . “It’s just because The Division is made in Sweden, and they just wanted to put some stuff in there. Whoever the artist was, they juꦇst waܫnted to put in some of their Nordic culture. It had nothing to do with us.”

McDevitt explained that it would have been impossible for Massive Entertainment, the Swedish developer behind The Division 2, to have known about Assassin’s Creed Valhalla since Ubisoft uses code names to describe u൩pcoming games within the company. This prevents anyone from knowing too much about the game before it’s🌱 time to reveal.

“We always work with a codename, and we always have a few idea🌌s for names. We decided on one eventually, but that was very, very funny. The image that’s in the poster h♎as nothing to do with our game.”

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla arrives in December for 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:next-gen and current-gen consoles, PC via 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Epic and Uplay, and Google Stadia.
