VIKING BATTLE FOR ASGARD (XBOX 360 X360)

Viking: Battle for Asgard is a hack and slash video game developed by Creative Assembly and published by Sega, released in 2008 on Windows, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. In Viking: Battle for Asgard, the player takes control of Skarin, a Norse warrior recruited by Freya, goddess of war. He is the champion chosen to fight the goddess Hel, daughter of Loki, Norse god of mischief. She had been banished from Asgard, the realm of the Asgard gods after defying Odin's rule, and plans to free Fenrir, a wolf god who was said to bring about Ragnarok, an apocalypse that will bring down Asgard and the gods. The game takes place in the mortal world of Midgard.

There are over a hundred different combat and melee moves that will lead to the dismemberment of opponents in battles that can number up to hundreds of enemies at a time. Skarin can also call upon dragons to attack his enemies or turn his enemies into werewolves to turn on his opponents.

Skarin can also free captured warriors to aid him in his quest to destroy Hel and his warriors, including giants, shamans, and Hel's own warrior champions. Skarin can slaughter wave after wave of enemies or can target certain individuals to demoralize enemy armies. There are different islands with great freedom. Different cities and settlements can be attacked, and missions on each island end in a large-scale battle with huge armies.
