First of all, do not fret! It does not appear that your immersion will be ruined by running around the Viking ages in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla repping Reebok-brand streetwear. However on the real world front, the video game developer/publisher Ubisoft and sportswear brand Reebok have confirmed a partnership which they claim will bring Assassin’s Creed Valhalla “to the streets so fans can show off their Viking attitude and engage with the story”.
This partnership will revolve around a capsule collection, which includes sneakers, apparel and accessories inspired by the Viking fantasy. The bespoke collection will be headlined by three footwear styles in exclusive colorways inspired by the northern lights:
Zig Kinetica
Inspired by the deep black of the Nordic night and the northern lights the Zig Kinetica x ASSASSIN’S CREED VALHALLA is designed with a black molded-mesh upper, built around its distinctive zigzag-shaped, energy-return sole in emerald sea. Nodding to the Viking Lifestyle, the model features the symbol for Synin, a raven that represents a major feature of Norse mythology, and helps key character Eivor on his journey.
Club C Revenge
Simple yet versatile, the Club C Revenge x ASSASSIN’S CREED VALHALLA features a soft suede tan upper with emerald sea and black hits throughout. On the heel, the silhouette features a twin battle ax symbol, the epitome of Norse versatility and one of the most iconic Viking symbols.
Classic Leather Legacy
Coming with a cold grey upper and highlights in both emerald sea and emerald haze, the Classic Leather Legacy x ASSASSIN’S CREED VALHALLA, a retro-running inspired lifestyle silhouette, is the perfect choice for those who don’t want to choose between the present and the past. The embossed raven symbol on the heel this detail speaks once more to the deep meaning of these creatures for the Vikings.
The collection also includes two hoodies, a cap and matching socks. Each piece features the custom ASSASSIN’S CREED VALHALLA X REEBOK logo, as well as additional symbols such as ravens and axes, true to the Norse mythology.
The collection will be initially available from the Reebok website from 7 November 2020, before being made available from select retailers starting 11 November. Assassin’s Creed Valhalla on the other hand will launch on the Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and the PC on 10 November 2020 and the PlayStation 5 at its launch on 12 November 2020.
