And monthly greets the new title update for Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. This time the patch listens to the version number 1.5.3 and makes improvements and fixes at every end and corner that Ubisoft has on the official site listed. There are also two items that you can pick up for a short time free of charge.

When will patch 1.5.3 be released? The title update is available for download for everyone starting today, June 28th at 2pm UK time.

How big is the patch?

  • PlayStation 5: 1.2GB
  • PlayStation 4: 1.4GB
  • Xbox Series X/S: 8.4GB
  • Xbox One: 8.8GB
  • PC: 7.17GB

It’s in Title Update 1.5.3

Patch 1.5.3 mainly makes improvements and fixes. Ubisoft has ironed out mistakes in the main game, as well as in the Discovery Tour, the crossover stories, master challenges and the third DLC The Marks of Ragnarok.

For example, in the Valkyrja battleground, Odin will no longer get stuck underground if he dies before reaching the final screen. It also addressed fundamental issues on Stadia and Xbox. Black screens when changing graphics mode on Xbox Series X/S should no longer be an issue.

Shimmering items as a bonus, but only for a short time

There is no major new content this time. The announced Rogue Lite mode is still a long time coming. Two new items have been added with the Bifröst package for this purpose. These are the Shimmering Shield and the Shimmering Axe. Both are made of the same crystal that Asgard’s Rainbow Bridge, Bifrost, is made of.

But you don’t get the Bifröst package just like that. To get the shield and ax for free, you need to get them from the Animus Shop. This is a bit unusual as free content like the Origins items are mostly distributed via Ubisoft Connect, but you can also access the Animus Shop very easily via the game. But beware! The items are only available for free in the shop until July 26th.
