This Week in Assassin's Creed Virtual Photography: 19th -25th March 2022

Welcome to the new weekly virtual photography roundup hosted by Aaron Young from The AC Partnership Program. 

​

Every week, we will be picking our top 5 favourite Assassin’s Creed shots and showcasing them on The Ones Who Came Before website, in order to promote virtual photography and talented content creators within the community. 

​

Aaron is a keen virtual photographer and loves to post his journeys through Assassin’s Creed on Twitter. 

​

Keep an eye on the site as more weekly shots are added, we are looking for capture across all Assassin’s Creed games. Tag your photos to the #TOWCBWeeklyCapture for a chance to be featured.

1) Dawn of Ragnarok

​

Game: Assassin’s Creed Valhalla

​

This week’s first capture comes from @coalabr14 over on Twitter. 

​

Our first Dawn of Ragnarok shot to be featured. I am yet to play the DLC myself, however this picture inspires me to give it a go.

I love the statue of what looks like Thor in the centre, with the steaming cauldrons either side. I am definitely getting God of War vibes from this. 

2) Havi

​

Game: Assassin’s Creed Valhalla

​

Photo number two comes from @Toringtino over on Twitter. Again I think this capture comes from Ragnarok, especially with how Eivor looks.

This is a great portrait of the main man himself. He is fully armoured up and ready for battle, with a stare like that I would not want to get in his way. I really like how this shot showcases that epic beard. 

3) The Revolution 

​

Game: Assassin’s Creed Unity

​

This week’s third shot comes from @Zorik323 over on Twitter. A stunning black and white portrait of Arno. I particularly like how he is stood in an archway with the blurry background.

The detail on the building in front of him is excellent. I am loving the pose more than anything though, classic Assassin.

4) Twilight 

​

Game: Assassin’s Creed Valhalla

​

VP number four comes from @dpruttz_vp over on Twitter.

​

This shot is too good. I love it when a portrait of the lead character comes off like this. It feels like a painting more than a game capture.

The Twilight armour really is on show here, and the sparks behind Eivor just amplify it. Really enjoying the turned head look, showing off the eye patch, nice little touch.

5) Stones

​

Game: Assassin’s Creed Valhalla

​

The final capture of the week comes from @PodToGo over on Twitter.

​

An amazing bird’s eye view of Aveberie Megaliths Standing Stones. There are so many of these picturesque locations in the game.

What I adore about this shot is the camera angle, it really plays tricks on your mind. The white 8 with the stones all around looks very mysterious.

And that sums it up for this week’s Assassin’s Creed virtual photography recap list!

Thank you for checking out this week’s photo collection. This would not be possible without the virtual photographers out there so a huge thanks to them. Until next week keep those shots coming in!
