The result is a gorgeous, engaging, deliberate, and even educational adventure through the realms in the hopes of reaching Valhalla. Instead, Jotun: Valhalla Edition is a tale that immerses itself deeply within Norse mythology, told proudly and reverently, replete with hand-drawn animation and a striking, fully orchestrated soundtrack to match. There are no Marvel superheroes present, nor are the references to mythology as limited as, say, the name of the protagonist’s motorcycle, like Cloud’s bike, Fenrir, in Final Fantasy VII. As prevalent as elements of Norse mythology are in pop culture, few games take direct inspiration from the tales of old quite like Jotun.
