Ubisoft has announced that Assassin's Creed Valhalla will be receiving a patch to iron out some small bugs in the game. The recent release of Assassin's Creed Valhalla on Steam has reignited interest in the title.
First released in 2020, Assassin's Creed Valhalla is the most recent entry into Ubisoft's long-running stealth franchise. However, upon release, the game faced criticism, with many fans tired of the RPG formula that had seen recent entries into the franchise massively grow in scale. Now over two years old, Assassin's Creed Valhalla represents the longest wait between games in the franchise's history. Many fans are hoping the wait has been to rethink the direction of the franchise, with plenty still debating if future Assassin's Creed titles should contain RPG elements. At the moment the fan base is split, making it an unenviable task for Ubisoft to handle.

The news comes directly from Ubisoft, with Assassin's Creed Valhalla's 1.7.0 update planned for release on February 21 across all supported platforms. The change log itself is relatively small, with only small bug fixes and improvements made. However, the update does fix some issues with Ubisoft's Helix Credits currency not appearing correctly, so the update may have been necessary if it was affecting player purchases. The previous major update for the game was Assassin's Creed Valhalla's Last Chapter update, which brought a conclusive end to Eivor's story, however, reception for this particular DLC was lukewarm at best. Despite Assassin's Creed Valhalla's abundance of post-launch support, unfortunately, much of it has received a similar reception to The Last Chapter.
