Ubisoft has released Title Update 1.3.2 for Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla. Although this update is massive, it mostly implements bug fixes and improvements. No new content was added, but this may prepare the game for the upcoming Discovery Tour: Viking Age, which will be released this October 19.
Notable Bug Fixes and Improvements
The game is available on multiple platforms, including Google Stadia. Those thinking of playing on the said platform will be happy to know that you can switch between graphics modes now. You can choose to prioritize consistent performance or opt for better image quality. Though this may come with frame drops in certain instances.
In terms of improvements, all post-launch skill nodes will now have a higher impact on Eivor’s stats. Also, those planning to play the game for the first time will find that the difficulty settings are now prominently placed in the gameplay section.
For bug fixes, PC players who had problems initiating the Fenrir boss fight when the World Details are set to Low can now finish the campaign. This applies to GPUs with 6 GB of VRAM or lower.
If you had problems loading your saves after completing the Siege of Paris, need not worry as this has now been resolved.
Anyway, if you could buy extra resources from various merchants across Francia, this was apparently unintended and was caused by a bug. This is fixed in TU 1.3.2, so you can no longer do this after updating the game.
