Earlier this year, there was quite a bit of speculation regarding what the final framerate for Assassin's Creed Valhalla would be on next-generation consoles, with Ubisoft confirming that it would run "at least 30 FPS."

Today, we got an updated answer with some very good news for anyone purchasing an Xbox Series X. In a press release, Ubisoft stated that "On Xbox Series X, Assassin's Creed Valhalla will run at 60 FPS in full 4K resolution."

Assassin's Creed Valhalla also supports Smart Delivery, meaning you can buy the game for Xbox One and enjoy a free upgrade to the Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S version at no extra cost. Both consoles also take advantage of higher-quality effects, improved shadow quality and faster loading times.

The release date for Assassin's Creed Valhalla was moved up and it is now releasing on November 10 for Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, PC, PS5 and PS4. The Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S are also launching on November 10 at $499 and $299 respectively.
