Mortal Kombat-Like X-Ray Kill in AC Valhalla’s Gameplay Reveal Wasn’t a Fluke, It’s ‘Player Triggered’



During last weekend?s Ubisoft Forward, Ubisoft showed off the first look at Assassin?s Creed Valhalla gameplay. For the most part, much of it seemed like pretty standard Assassin?s Creed fare. There did exist one key wrinkle to the formula, though, a quick moment many likely assumed was simple happenstance?an X-ray assassination. During one assassination with the hidden blade, the image on-screen morphs into something resembling Mortal Kombat?s X-ray kills. Was it a fluke" Nope. Apparently, it is actually a sequence players can trigger.
Benoit Richer, a developer on AC Valhalla, briefly outlined what to expect from the X-ray attacks in a Twitter exchange with a fan. When asked if such an animation was a mere cinematic for the reveal, Richer divulged it?s a move players have control over. See the Twitter exchange in the post linked below:
