Assassin’s Creed Valhalla’s Updated Content Roadmap Released, Ubisoft Teases New Abilities and Difficulty

Ubisoft took to Twitter over the weekend to offer a look at what’s in store for Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, and teased new content including new raid maps, new abilities, and new combat difficulty.

Tomorrow, September 7th, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla title update 1.3.1 will be released along with River Raids map pack # 2. Title update 1.3.2 will release in the fall along with another free expansion called Discovery Tour: Viking Age.

“We can’t give everything away just yet, but the upcoming game update may or may not include: three new River Raids maps, Nightmare combat difficulty, three new abilities, new weapons and gear (did someone say short sword?),” Ubisoft teased on Twitter.

As for what’s coming in tomorrow’s title update, Ubisoft will likely release details later today. For now, here are some of the known issue it plans to address:

The Siege of Paris – Expansion 2

• Madness of King Charles – Boss cannot be spared if combat difficulty option is set to Skald
  • Workaround: Set the difficulty setting to Vikingr

  • Workaround: Do not bring a mount in the vicinity of the Duelist.
