The trailer already gives you some idea of that. We hear Alfred saying that vikings murder and kill blindly during a scene of some vikings purposefully sparing a woman and child that cross their path. We hear Alfred talking about how bad they are, but see a scene of vikings playing with their children. 

So Ubisoft are basically going to go into this historically incorrect then and make up their own version of vikings lol.

Maybe they will have the monks raping the viking women instead. 

Well that is what Ubisoft do. But I imagine they'll have it more in keeping with the Viking TV show where their are lots of shades of grey. A lot of brutality but showing other aspects of Viking culture at the same time. Also, just because the main character is portrayed as a good guy doesn't mean all of the Vikings will be. I would be surprised if they didn't have a host of internal struggles among the Vikings as well.

It's also worth remembering that most written information about Vikings is from England so is certainly very one-sided.
