Assassin’s Creed Valhalla will continue the trend of letting you pursue multiple romances throughout your adventure, but this time your options for lasting relationships have been expanded.

In advance of Ubisoft Forward, GameSpot recently sat down with Valhalla narrative director Darby McDevitt, who explained how the Viking-themed sequel will still let you explore as many relationships as you wish. This time, however, you’re able to engage with your partner in long-term relationships while also fostering multiple smaller ones on the side if you wish.

“There are definitely a couple of one-night-stands you can get involved in and they’re fun in their own ways but there’s also going to be some longer-term relationships,” McDevitt explained. “A little of both. If you want to be monogamous and have a single, ongoing relationship with somebody, you can do that.”

Breaking Bad actor Giancarlo Esposito and Anthony Gonzalez, who voiced Coco in the Pixar movie of the same name, are lending their talents to Ubisoft’s Far Cry 6. After confirming the game during its Ubisoft Forward event, the company has now shared a behind-the-scenes video featuring Esposito and Gonzalez speaking about their characters and their experiences working on the project.

Esposito plays Anton Castillo, the main villain of Far Cry 6, and Esposito calls him a very smart and manipulative person. Esposito also says you may not want to take what Anton says at face value, and he’s known to lie as part of his excellent manipulation skills.

Gonzalez plays Anton’s son, Diego Castillo, and he talks about the process of getting into character and delivering a meaningful and impactful performance. Both Esposito and Gonzalez also take some time to speak about the challenging nature of working in motion-capture suits and playing make-believe as they are forced to imagine their surroundings.

With cinemas currently closed around the US due to the COVID-19 pandemic, drive-ins are often determining which films top the box office, and it’s not always new movies. This weekend, for the first time since its 1997 Special Edition re-release, Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back has topped the box office, Deadline reports.

The second Star Wars movie is expected to have earned between $400K and $500K across 483 locations across the weekend of July 10-12, which is enough for it to take the top spot. Black Panther and Inside Out are expected to land in 2nd and 3rd.

Other classic movies to top the box office over the last few weeks include Ghostbusters (July 3-5) and Jurassic Park (June 19-21). The figures they are earning are, of course, significantly less than a new movie would typically earn–before the pandemic, it was almost unheard of in the last decade for the top movie of any particular weekend to open to below $10 million.

Gary Whitta, the co-writer of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and Season 1 of Telltale’s The Walking Dead, is working on something new, and it sounds big. The writer, who is currently hosting Animal Talking, a socially-distanced talk show set inside Animal Crossing: New Horizons, has teased a new project on Twitter.

On July 11, Whitta tweeted about having news that had made his week, and while he can’t say much, he revealed that he “sold a movie.” What the movie is about, and who it was sold to, remains unclear, but he says it’s a “big one.”

Whitta will write and produce the movie, and absolutely no further details are known right now, including whether it’s an original idea or set within an established universe.

The Assassin’s Creed series has always been filled with side quests to complete alongside the main storyline, and these have grown especially prominent in the recent role-playing games like Origins and Odyssey. For Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, however, Ubisoft has completely changed its approach to side quests. In fact, they aren’t really in the game at all.

Speaking to GameSpot just before Ubisoft Forward, narrative director Darby McDevitt explained that “world events” are included in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, but the traditional side quest is “almost nonexistent.” There are longer story arcs to complete as part of the main questline, but extra activities you complete will happen more spontaneously and won’t necessarily be quests you have to seek out.

This approach was chosen to fit the narrative, as the protagonist Eivor arrives in England as an invader rather than a native. Having quest-givers left and right would not make sense, as you’re still actively trying to make alliances.
