As promised, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla update 1.6.0 is now live across all platforms. This is a pretty meaty update that adds a new free game mode: The Forgotten Saga. Going by the DLC’s trophy list, it’s a pretty significant piece of add-on content. In addition to this, The Sigrblot Festival has returned to the game.
