A new update for Assassin’s Creed Valhalla arrived earlier than expected, with Ubisoft choosing today to roll out the patch after teasing a delay caused by an unexpected crash in the Animus. The update is already live across all platforms, bringing a fresh wave of content and tweaks for players to explore.
At the heart of the update are additional missions that bring Eivor’s saga toward a satisfying close. Players will reconnect with familiar faces and confront old rivals while meeting new characters who will shape the final chapters of the journey. Among the newcomers is Roshan, the wife of a prominent figure from the forthcoming Assassin’s Creed Mirage, hinting at cross-title storytelling and expanding the broader Valhalla universe.
The patch also introduces practical quality-of-life changes. For those who enjoy a constant gaze into the hood, a new option lets players walk with the hood up at all times, accessible via the settings menu. Additionally, the in-game store will offer a weekly random premium item, giving players a little extra incentive to log in and explore. A complete list of changes accompanies the update for players who want every detail of the adjustments and additions.
Assassin’s Creed Valhalla originally launched on November 10 for PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5. The latest news in the broader gaming landscape includes ongoing chatter around cyberpunk titles and player reactions, illustrating how community sentiment evolves with new releases and updates across platforms.
