Assassin’s Creed Valhalla 1.2.1 patch notes
With the new patch, a few new abilities are being added to the game and they are preparing the game for the Wrath of Druids expansion, which will be released on May 13. As you know, the release date of this expansion has already been postponed.

Game improvements

- Fixed an issue that prevented a duel with Dag from being triggered after sleeping in A Brewing Storm.
- The following missing fish species can be seen again in the game: “Halibut small, Sturgeon Small, Flat Fish Big, Mackerel Big” (We left this part in English as you will encounter English names in the game.) You can visit the relevant forum post to see where you can find the species.
- Bayek’s and Altair’s clothing looks were allowed to be applied to other armors when using Transmog.
- Fixed an issue that prevented him from making a sound while galling with the horse.
Balancing
- The Battlecry capability has been extended.
- The “Fearless Leaper” capability has been set to make it easier to jump from higher places.
- Fixed an issue with the “Spinning Death” and “Vordr Bite” perks, which caused the percentage of chance to be higher than intended.
With all these arrangements, dozens of missions and side missions, raids, and many problems that players often experience have been addressed.
