The latest update for Assassin's Creed Valhalla arrives on February 22, bringing a number of tweaks and fixes to the Nordic sandbox and preparing the game for March's huge Dawn of Ragnarok expansion. The good news is that even if you're not planning to hop into the new DLC, there'll still be plenty of content available that will benefit your overall gameplay experience.

One area of the game where you can expect a more fine-tuned experience is in the stealth department, as Ubisoft has addressed a number of issues. After the game has been updated, expect an improved enemy reaction to Eivor's whistle, enemies detecting Eivor when they place an environmental trap, and wild animals apparently having an infinite range of vision that results in NPCs being alerted to your shenanigans.

If you're finding Assassin's Creed Valhalla to be too difficult even on its lowest difficulty setting, a more accessible option will make the game much easier. Saga difficulty is a mode that focuses on the story of Valhalla, buffing Eivor's resistance to damage, increasing the window of opportunity for assassinations, and keeping enemies at a fixed level that doesn't scale with your own progress.

You can expect the update to roll out from 4 AM PT / 7 AM ET, with the following file sizes according to platform:

• Xbox Series X|S: 12.27 GB
• Xbox One: 9.84 GB
• PS5: 3.60 GB
• PS4: 7.94 GB
• PC: 15.09 GB

Assassin's Creed Valhalla has done particularly good business for Ubisoft, as the company reported that net bookings and Player Recurring Investment AKA microtransactions grew by 70% and 80% when compared to Assassin's Creed Odyssey.

You can read the full patch notes below:
