Assassin’s Creed Valhalla hotfix addresses inability to use permanent boosters

Ubisoft has released an Assassin’s Creed Valhalla update designed to solve a problem that was stopping players from using boosters they’d purchased.

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla microtransactions were introduced about a month after the game’s launch, enabling players to purchase permanent XP and Silver boosts.

“We deployed a hotfix to address an issue where purchased permanent boosters could not be used by players,” Ubisoft said this week.

It also confirmed plans to fix several other issues in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla title update 1.3.0, which is targeted for release in July 2021, although a release date has yet to be nailed down.

They include addressing an issue with the Saint Faith world event which stops players progressing as they can’t interact with an NPC, a fix for unusable custom controls, and a fix for players being unable to get supplies.

Ubisoft announced on Friday that it plans to add level scaling to Assassin’s Creed Valhalla on July 27.

The next Assassin’s Creed Valhalla title update also looks set to introduce one-handed swords to the game, with Ubisoft teasing the arrival of the heavily requested feature in a tweet this week.
