Assassin's Creed Valhalla update 1.6.0 is so big that you should make some hard drive space



Today is the day, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla gets its next big update. And that packs a punch this time, not only does it deliver a new free DLC, but it’s also pretty big. So make some space on your hard drive.

  • When does the update go live? Today, August 2nd at 2 p.m. German time

How big is the update? The size of the patch varies depending on your platform:

  • Xbox Series X/S: 26GB
  • Xbox One: 19.6GB
  • PS5: 12.5GB
  • PS4: 17.5GB
  • PC: 23.7GB

This brings update 1.6.0 to AC Valhalla

New mode: In the new update, the free mode The Forgotten Saga is at the forefront. In the roguelite mode, you slip into the skin of Odin again and fight your way through Niflheim to face off against Hel, the goddess of death. Dying is part of it. While you can keep your unlocked skills and equipment in each run, your weapons are randomly selected each time. If you pick up a new weapon along the way, your old one is lost forever.
