Difficulty Categories

In Assassin's Creed Valhalla, the categorized difficulty settings allows you to customize your gameplay experience the way you want to.

Whether you want a narrative and easy driven game, or a hardcore slugfest until the end, there is a difficulty setting just for you!

Exploration Difficulty

This category affects how much you can see on the compass and the world map for points of interests and opportunities.

Combat Difficulty

Combat difficulty directly affects how much damage you receive from enemies, and how much health they have.

Parrying and Dodging become essential skills to master the higher the difficulty you choose.

Stealth Difficulty

Difficulty settings for stealth directly influence how hard or easy it will be for you to eliminate enemies quietly or sneak past them.

Making full use of your Raven to chart stealthy entrances and exits and knowing precisely when to move in and out of an enemy's line of sight becomes essential on higher difficulty settings.

How to Change Difficulty Settings

If you ever feel that the game's Exploration, Combat, or Stealth feel too easy or too difficult, you can always go and change the difficulty in the Options Menu.
