Which Assassin's Creed game takes place mainly in Viking-era England and Norway?

The story behind the answer

Assassin's Creed Valhalla takes place mainly in Viking-era England and Norway.

Released in 2020, Valhalla follows Eivor, a Viking raider who leads a Norse clan from Norway to England. The English setting is divided among several kingdoms and regions, including areas associated with Wessex, Mercia, Northumbria, and East Anglia.

Eivor becomes connected to the Hidden Ones and their conflict with the Order of the Ancients, the organization that precedes the Templars. The story combines Viking settlement, political alliances, raids, and memories connected with Norse mythology.

The game is sometimes described as being set only in England, but Norway forms an important part of the opening and later story. Its historical period is the late ninth century, during the Viking expansion into Anglo-Saxon England.
