"It’s a throwback to old Assassin’s Creed I’m sure fans of the franchise, rather than just fans of Valhalla, will love. And for that reason, in combination with the fact that it tells an interesting story, offers a great reason …"

"The Siege of Paris DLC for Assassin&s;s Creed Valhalla is less bloated, and that is a positive. It still recycles most of what it did previously, so this expansion does little to get you onboard if you&s;re already burned out …"

"Not many novelty in this expansion, but the choices and RPG elements steer Assassin&s;s Creed from its pure action roots."
Read original review"Overall it has a strong opening and some really interesting quest but ultimate it doesn&s;t feel like an essential to the main game thus if you wait for a sale on this one, it may be a better purchase."

Read original review"Assassin&s;s Creed Valhalla: The Siege of Paris is a good DLC that continues to expand Eivor&s;s story. The infiltration missions return to make it clear that they must be indispensable in the future of the saga."

"Siege of Paris is an expansion pack that adds much more content to the base game. In fact, it provides something that we all missed. The assassination missions. With Siege of Paris, the assassination missions finally come back."
Read original review"The Siege of Paris rests solidly on the playful and technical foundations of Assassin&s;s Creed Valhalla, and in some respects does not reach the scenic heights of Eivor&s;s Irish journey. France is an open world less beautiful to look at …"

"Despite its satisfyingly open Infiltrations and the brisk bite of its scythes, The Siege of Paris doesn&s;t feel like an essential addition when Valhalla already has Mjolonir&s;s weight in nearly identical content."
