I’m on the hunt for games where you really immerse yourself in the Viking lifestyle — think sailing, raiding, and fighting like a true Northman. I’ve already played Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla, so if it’s similar or has that vibe, I’d love to hear your recommendations!

If you’re looking for a Viking experience, definitely check out Valheim! It’s a survival game where you do a lot of crafting, exploring, and yes, raiding! It’s like living in Viking purgatory. Just be ready for some challenges, especially when it comes to getting resources from the dvergr.
Ever tried ‘The Lost Vikings’ on SNES? It’s a fun puzzle platformer with a bit of that Viking flavor. Totally different but a blast to play!
You might enjoy ‘Vikings: Battle for Asgard.’ It’s a classic from the Xbox 360 days and focuses on combat with a good storyline. Plus, it’s available on Steam too!
Though it’s not purely Viking, the ‘God of War’ series has incredible Nordic themes and characters. It’s a really engaging story and worth playing if you haven’t checked it out yet!
For a mix of Viking and strategic gameplay, ‘Mount & Blade’ with mods is solid. Go with the Sturgia faction for your raiding needs. They’ve announced a new expansion centered on Vikings too, so keep an eye out!
Yeah! I heard they’re adding a Norse faction with some proper raiding mechanics for Bannerlord soon!
Haha, I get that! The moment I had to raid, I was like ‘do I really have to?’ But it’s worth it for the thrill!
