It takes a lot of work to bring together an Assassin's Creed game, and Valhalla is no different. The gameplay has to be adjusted, a new storyline must be created, and voice actors are recruited to bring the characters to life. A voice can change everything, as it was made evident in Odyssey due to the way Kassandra's voice made her more likable than that of Alexios'.
The voice actors in Valhalla deserve recognition for their efforts, and it might surprise you that some served as the voice for more than one main character. It was quite a cast as voice actors from all over came together to give this game a life of its own by adding their own flair to the characters.
10 Eric Johnson (Ivarr The Boneless)
Ivarr the Boneless was voiced by Eric Johnson who is better known for his works as an actor and director. You might better recognize him as Jack Hyde from Fifty Shades Darker or as Whitney Fordman from Smallville. He has even appeared on a show called Vikings as Erik, so it is no wonder they chose him for the role of this memorable character seeing as he has experience with real-life Vikings.
9 Kyle Gatehouse (Oswald)
Kyle Gatehouse might not be well known, but he has taken on jobs in supporting roles for much of his career. However, his take on Oswald helped make this character memorable and beloved among fans as his voice allowed them to look at this fictional character with emotion, as he had one of the best storylines. A few of his previous roles include being a Pentagon Cook in X-Men: Days of Future Past and Conrad in White House Down.
8 Kajsa Mohammar (Randvi & Soma)
Kajsa Mohammar was given a huge role when she was tasked with voicing both Randvi and Soma, who were two characters that were one of the best parts of the game. Luckily, she nailed it and it is no wonder seeing as she has had practice playing the role of Tait on a show called Vikings. Mohammar is a Swedish actress and those who are fans of Netflix might also recognize her in Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga as Lisa, one of the announcers.
7 Andrew Shaver (Stowe)
Stowe was a righteous man with good morals who wanted to do what was best for Lunden, which is why Andrew Shaver was the perfect man for the job. He has done extensive work as both an actor and director as his name is attached to projects such as Star Trek: Discovery, White House Down, and The Plateaus.
You might also recognize him from his role as David Rizzio on a show called Reign which has helped shape his voice to be perfect for this opportunity. This isn't his first rodeo as a voice actor for a video game though as he has previously voiced a Ragnarok male on Watch Dogs 2 and Janus on Deau Ex: The Fall.
6 Tom Lewis (King Aelfred The Great)
Tom Lewis had the voice of sniveling royalty as he portrayed King Aelfred the Great in Assassin's Creed Valhalla. He is a British actor who trained at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, so he was destined to become the voice actor for this role. He has been in a few productions like Gentlemen Jack, A Discovery of Witches, and Redeeming Love.
5 Gaia Weiss (Fulke)
Fulke was a member of the Order of the Ancients and she had to be portrayed by someone who could make her sound a bit mad, despite her leaving some questions unanswered. Gaia Weiss nailed it and her role as Porunn on the show called Vikings helped to prepare her for this important role. She even appeared on Outlander as Comtesse St. Germain which only worked in her favor to voice act this character in Assassin's Creed Valhalla.
4 Gudmundr Thorvaldsson (Sigurd & Tyr)
Gudmundr Thorvaldsson had two huge roles as he was responsible for voice acting both Sigurd, Eivor's brother, and Tyr, the Norse god of war. He is also an actor and has appeared in productions such as Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga, The Fifth Estate, and The Witcher.
Many of his roles are Icelandic, which is also his nationality. The slight accent he has gives Sigurd the edge he needs as he needed to sound like a foreigner in England and it is one of the reasons this game is better than Red Dead Redemption 2.
3 Carlo Rota (Basim & Loki)
Basim and Loki, a Norse mythological figure, were both cunning and sly which is why Carlo Rota was chosen to be the voice actor for this role. He has traveled across the world which has given his voice a unique texture that few can say they possess. Rota has appeared in productions such as American Horror Story, Lethal Weapon, and Jane the Virgin which has prepared him to play this part.
2 Cecilie Stenspil (Female Eivor & Rosta)
Players could be both a male and female Eivor, and Cecilie Stenspil was chosen to voice act the female version of this character, which made for some exceptional memes. She was also the voice of Rosta, who was also Eivor's mother in the story. She is a Danish actress and much of her experience is in films and tv shows outside of the United States, but her voice acting proves that she was the right woman for the job.
1 Magnus Bruun (Male Eivor, Varin, & Odin)
Magnus Bruun was cast as three different characters in the game as he was responsible for the male version of Eivor, as well as Varin, who was Eivor's father, and Odin, a Norse god. He is also of Danish descent, like the Vikings themselves, and many of his previous roles have been in these types of productions.
He was the perfect man for the job as he has the background and knowledge to give this character justice, as well as the resume that has allowed him to give the male version of Eivor life and emotion.
