Oswald appears as a major supporting character in the 2020 video game [[Assassin's Creed Valhalla]]<ref>{{Cite web|title=Oswald of East Anglia|url=https://assassinscreed.fandom.com/wiki/Oswald_of_East_Anglia|publisher=Fandom}}</ref>, voiced by Kyle Gatehouse<ref>{{Cite web|title=Assassins Creed Valhalla on IMDB|url=https://m.imdb.com/title/tt12235026/fullcredits/cast?ref_=m_ttfc_3|publisher=IMDB}}</ref>. As part of the [[East Anglia]]<ref>{{Cite web|title=East Anglia|url=https://www.ign.com/wikis/assassins-creed-valhalla/East_Anglia|access-date=20 January 2021|publisher=IGN}}</ref> story arc, he is presented as a peaceful, amiable young [[Anglo-Saxon]] nobleman whose authority is challenged by the [[Danes (tribe)|Dane]] Rued, despite Oswald's upcoming marriage to the [[Viking]] Valdis. The protagonist Eivor is tasked with training Oswald to fight in order to challenge Rued for the throne. A [[duel]] is arranged and, despite Rued's much greater physical prowess, Oswald shows enough courage to overcome the Dane and they both fall from the castle [[battlements]]. Both men survive the fall and, depending on the decisions made the player, Eivor either slays Rued, or spares him for trial. If the latter is the case, Rued escapes and appears at Oswald and Valdis' wedding feast, where is killed in a second duel either by Eivor or by Oswald himself. Oswald pledges allegiance to Eivor's clan and promises to rule his kingdom peacefully and fairly.
