Assassin's Creed Valhalla is an action role-playing video game developed by Ubisoft Montreal and published by Ubisoft. It is the twelfth major instalment and the twenty-second release in the Assassin's Creed series, and a successor to the 2018's Assassin's Creed Odyssey. The game was released on November 10, 2020, for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X and Series S, and Stadia, while the PlayStation 5 version was released on November 12.

Engine: AnvilNext 2.0. We test using the Very High preset, DX12 API.

Starting the game benchmarks with Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, at 1080p we can see the RTX 3050 delivers 63 FPS on average. That puts its pretty neatly between the GTX 1660 Super and the RTX 2060, as it’s 8% faster than the former but 11% slower than the latter. We can also see no practical difference when testing with PCIe 3.0 either.
