Assassin’s Creed Valhalla received possibly the last title update of its lifetime. TU 1.6.2 went live earlier than previously announced and it brought the free DLC The Last Chapter, which concludes Eivor’s story.
Players can now keep their hoods on forever. A new Hood Always On feature has been introduced where Eivor’s hood will be worn at all times. It will not affect stealth or detection, just purely cosmetic.
The animus store is now giving more free stuff, with every week players receiving a random premium item for free. However, licensed content won’t be a part of the reward pool. All Merchant Stores will now feature rewards for all four festivals and you can purchase them via Silver Coins. New content such as new mounts and a raven will be added later.
