Behind the scenes
Sýnin first appeared in Assassin's Creed: Valhalla's reveal livestream, flying over Eivor's shoulder.[4] Her name was first revealed in an interview with USGamer, where it was announced that she would appear in-game as a companion and extension of the Eagle Vision mechanic introduced in Assassin's Creed: Origins and Assassin's Creed: Odyssey.[5]
Etymology
Sýnin is the definitive form of the Old Norse word sýn, meaning 'sight, vision'.
The name is intended to mean 'insight' and is pronounced "Sue-nin" (/'suːnɪn/).[6]
