The planets seem to be aligning quite nicely for those looking forward to both the Xbox Series X and Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. Following the recent confirmation of the release date and pricing for the Xbox Series X, Ubisoft announced that Assassin’s Creed Valhalla will be releasing earlier than planned in order to launch alongside Microsoft’s next-gen console.

Ubisoft made the announcement over on the official Assassin’s Creed Twitter account. Originally slated to release on November 17th, the game will now be releasing on November 10th, with players still able to upgrade from the Xbox One version of the game to the Series X version at no additional cost.

“We are excited to announce that players will be able to discover Assassin’s Creed Valhalla sooner than expected!” producer Julien Laferrière said in a recent statement. “We cannot wait to see the world we’ve been creating over the past three years coming to life on all platforms, including on the next generation of consoles with the Xbox Series X | S on 10th November.”

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is now slated to release on November 1th for PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X | S. The title should release on the same day as the PS5’s launch later this year.
