"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 …"

"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."

"‎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.‎"
