According to a recent interview with Alain Mercieca, senior writer of the recent Assassin's Creed Valhalla (you can find our review at this link), the ending of the game opens up many possibilities for old and new characters, among which legends such as Ezio auditor.
From this point on, we are forced to reveal important details of the plot of Assassin's Creed Valhalla and its ending, so we advise you to continue carefully in case you have not yet finished the work in its entirety.
In the ending of the game, the user discovers that Evior is the reincarnation of a Isu synonym of Odin. For this it is able to speak to him in the animus throughout the game, and is canonically female. Starting from these basics, we bring you the words of the senior writer of Assassin's Creed Valhalla, and how he hinted at the possibility that characters like Ezio Auditore return in the saga.
While I understand this detail (the fact that Eivor can be male), for me, the masculine aspect added to the bow is connected to the spiritual roots.
It also added a nice interesting layer. I won't go through with it, but the ending explains this connection exactly. We wanted to use lore to embrace choice and also make the animus an intrinsic part of the history of the present and not a simple choice.
The characters in Assassin's Creed Valhalla are all important beyond their identity, which allows them to play in a much larger story arc. In addition, some sequences have carried over to previous games. The latest iteration of the brand is actually a Nordic-style revival of the stories we've seen over the years, which implies that there are more Isu, as these are incarnations like Eivor, Sigurd e Basim.
In Assassin's Creed Valhalla Ezio Auditore is also present, as even if not visible it also manages to communicate at a certain point, like Bayek. While the latter character only has a dramatic effect, Ezio's presence is connected to the idea that these characters and games are completely connected to a bigger story than just the brand.
Speaking of the topic, Mercieca mentioned that "it's too early to tell how this will turn out in the next games“, And it is therefore really difficult to imagine how Ubisoft will be able to take advantage of his connected universe of Assassin's Creed over the next few chapters.
