If you love all things Norse mythology and make it your mission to read every book and watch every TV show and movie you can find, you might also be looking for video games with the same theme as well. With that in mind, here are some of the best games featuring Vikings that are available for a variety of platforms. Take a look.

God of War

Released in 2018, God of War is the eighth installment in the God of War franchise and sequel to God of War III from 2010. Perhaps you were not interested in the previous titles as they were loosely based on Greek mythology but this one is set in ancient Scandinavia and introduces Norse mythology. The game was initially only available on PlayStation but 2022 finally saw a release for Windows. It received universally positive reviews, so you will surely enjoy playing it.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Another very popular game featuring Vikings you must have heard of before is The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. This role-playing game is set in the land of the Nords and gives you the perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in a world full of magic, gods, and dragons. First released in 2011 for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Windows, it is now available for Nintendo Switch, PS 4 and 5, and Xbox One and Series X/S. Moreover, since the release, a few DLCs have been made available as well.

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla

Among the many titles in the Assassin’s Creed franchise, you can also find Valhalla, which was released in 2020. Developed by the Canadian Ubisoft Montreal and published by Ubisoft, Valhalla is the 12th game in the series, set in 872-878 AD during the Viking expansion toward the British Isles. In the fictional story, you get to control a Viking raider by the name of Eivor Varinsdottir while the present-day story follows Layla Hassan who relives the Viking’s memories. It’s available on Windows, Stadia, PlayStation 4 and 5, and Xbox One and Series X/S. The critics praised the narrative, characters, and world design.

Gates of Valhalla

Developer Pragmatic Play made a slot game inspired by Vikings called Gates of Valhalla. This game is played on a five-times-five panel and has 10 paylines. You can win if you get at least three matching symbols next to each other in either a horizontal or vertical direction. The slot game has bright symbols that include clubs, spades, hearts, and diamonds as the low pays as well as three faces that represent the premiums. Moreover, a golden lion is the wild symbol that can replace anything but the free spins symbol. If you’re looking for reviews and similar slot games, you can easily find some here and get transported to Norse mythology times.

Jotun

If you’d rather go for an indie game, don’t overlook Jotun. This game follows Thora who dies a dishonorable death during a storm and is not allowed to Valhalla. Her story might be familiar to you if you’re a lover of Norse mythology. Developed by Canadian studio Thunder Lotus Games, it was released in 2015 for macOS, Windows, and Linux. It was also made available for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in 2016, Switch in 2018, and Stadia in 2020.

For Honor

Another Ubisoft release that you might be interested in is For Honor. While it doesn’t focus purely on Vikings, it does feature them in all kinds of fantasy matchups where they fight other famous warriors, such as knights and samurai. Available for Windows, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4, this 2017 third-person perspective action video game received generally favorable reviews and you might enjoy it as well.

Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice

Inspired by Norse mythology as well as Celtic culture, Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice is an action-adventure game that follows Senua, a Pict warrior, as she makes her way to Helheim while defeating various entities. Developed and published by Ninja Theory, it was made available for PlayStation 4 and Microsoft Windows in 2017, while Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X, and Series S versions have also been released since. It received positive critics and was a commercial success.

Northgard

Lovers of real-time strategies might like Northgard. In this game, players control a Vikings clan with the goal of taking control of a wild continent. It also offers a competitive multiplayer mode, which might be something that interests you. First released for PC in 2018, console versions followed in 2019, and a mobile version for iOS came out in 2021.

Valheim

In case you’re looking for a survival sandbox game, keep an eye out for Valheim, which was released in early access in February of 2021 for Linux and Windows on Steam. Available as both single- and multiplayer, it received positive reviews upon release. The game depicts a world where fallen Viking warriors have to prove that they are worthy of going to Valhalla by defeating the evils of Valheim.

 

As you can see, if you’re looking for a game that features Vikings, you have many options available. No matter what you choose, you’re guaranteed a fun time.
