Summary

Developer:: The Creative Assembly Ltd
Publisher:: Sega

A fierce struggle is taking place within Asgard, the realm of the Norse Gods. The battle has escalated, spilling over to the mortal world of Midgard and now a Champion must be found. In Viking: Battle for Asgard, a Warrior than can sway this war that threatens the fate of Asgard and the Gods themselves.

Viking: Battle for Asgard's goddess Hel – daughter of Loki, Norse God of mischief, has been banished from the heavenly kingdom of Asgard for defying Odin’s rule. Angry at her fate, she seeks to release the ancient wolf-god Fenrir which legend tells will bring about Ragnarok - the apocalyptic battle that will destroy Asgard and the Gods. With her army of resurrected Viking warriors, Hel marches on the unsuspecting mortal realm of Midgard.

Odin’s daughter Freya, goddess of love and wisdom, is appointed the task of stopping Hel and defending the future of mankind. For her champion she chooses Viking: Battle for Asgard's Skarin, a great but troubled young warrior, ignorant of the true reason for his favour with the Gods and thrust into the midst of their bitter war.

As Skarin, Viking: Battle for Asgard players will experience unparalleled battle scenes, leading the charge in a titanic clash between powerful gods and mere men. War on an unprecedented scale will rage across a beautifully realised Viking landscape. Vast, living islands, free form worlds filled with discovery, stealth, brutal combat and culminating in epic battles the like of which have never been seen on console before.

What a game, slightly confusing at the start if u dont watch the cut scenes! But a absoultly brilliant game, the graphics are top quality (the hacking of the enemies limbs especially), always plenty of enemies to smash to pieces, and you learn more finisher moves as you progress through the game. But the hacking of enemies an get repettive and the enemies are slightly easy to kill, but this is an amazing game well worth buying! 9/10

Brilliant Game the only thing is it gets slightly repetitive but all in all is is a great game 9.5/10

Submitted by Michael Brooke

Visually it's spot on, noticeable pop-up from second isle onwards. The game is very one trick pony, and plays out similar to Assassins Creed (there's even need for stealth), where you do a few missions to qualify for the big battles, but no where near as good as AC. To start, you only have a two attack combo, for more you need to unlock them. Missions are either about killing the enemy, or traitors, or collecting an item involving killing enemies, and there's the pointless barrel collecting
It maybe just because I'm playing the hard difficulty, but the AI, if you could call it that, is dire. It will ignore your army just to attack you, or simply swarm at you. being near the end of the game, fighting four or more enemies becomes a steep chore, as the "AI" feels triggered by your button presses

this is one of the best games on the 360. the only downfall with the game is that it is too short.great fun thought with the amout of forces on the screen plus controlling the dragons is awesome.

Submitted by Stephen Christian

Great game. Good game play, decent graphics but a little repetitive. Also i thought it was a little to short, maybes 10 hours game play. Although hacking someones head then there arms makes it all worth it. 5 stars
