How to Get the Best Ending in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla?

Love it or hate it, the ending for AC Valhalla is certainly way different from that of its predecessors. One wrong choice can determine the fate of your game, and as gamers, we would definitely want to keep the best ending streak alive.

When you are playing as Eivor, it will all come down to getting the support of your brother Sigurd. Remember, the choices you have made throughout the game will make or break Sigurd’s decision in choosing you as the Jarlskona of Ravensthorpe.

The final mission titled “A Brother’s Keeper” is definitely a lore packed mission. It will make you a bit confused by the end so make sure you have both the Asgard Saga and the Jotunheim Saga to keep up with the story.

1. The Hall of Slain And Eivor’s Fight With Sigurd

‘A Brother’s Keeper’ mission starts immediately after the end of the ‘Where Legends Are Born’ mission. Sigurd takes Eivor all the way to Norway to an underground secret vault. Upon questioning, you learn that he is also an Isu and is taking you to the Hall of The Slain.

You can also defeat Basim pretty easily as a few combo hits on him triggers the cut scene where he runs off to another realm.
