Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla Final 1.7.0 Patch Addresses Animus Store Issues

Ubisoft is moving on from the world of Vikings with the final 1.7.0 update for Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla, released on Tuesday, February 21, 2023. The studio seems ready to focus on the upcoming Assasin’s Creed Mirage, slated for release sometime this year. 

In the previous 1.6.2 patch, Ubisoft gave back to fans of the game by releasing a free premium item from the Animus store every week. Recently, though, the feature has been bugged and players have been unable to receive their free items. Thankfully, the new 1.7.0 update has resolved this issue, along with any other bugs to ensure the rest of your time raiding on the Viking ship is smooth sailing. 

The update went live on all supported platforms with various patch sizes:

• Xbox Series X|S: 15.1 GB
• Xbox One: 9.9 GB
• PlayStation 5: 0.5 GB
• PlayStation 4: 1.6 GB
• PC: 6.3 GB
