Assassin's Creed Valhalla Gets New Title Update With Extensive Patch Notes

By Logan Moore

Ubisoft has today released a new title update for Assassin's Creed Valhalla. Nearly two years after first launching the latest game in the Assassin's Creed franchise, Ubisoft has continued to support Valhalla on a routine basis with new updates and DLC. And while support for the game seems to be winding down with Assassin's Creed Mirage on the horizon, that hasn't prevented Ubisoft from letting loose a sizable new patch today. 

As expected, much of this new update for Assassin's Creed Valhalla continues to squash bugs and fix other lingering errors that have plagued some players. These tweaks aren't only being done for the main game, though, but also The Forgotten Saga, The Siege of Paris, and Wrath of Druids DLC that has previously been released. 

Beyond simple bug fixes, this new update for Assassin's Creed Valhalla also contains some wholly new features. Specifically, a new settlement known as Rune Forge has now been added to the game and helps expand gear customization. New tombs have also been added to Valhalla with the Tombs of the Fallen expansion. Lastly, Ubisoft is also giving out in-game items that coincide with the 15th anniversary of the Assassin's Creed franchise. These goodies can only be obtained via Ubisoft Connect, though, so be sure to link your account if you haven't already done so.
