Beware the Wrath of the Druids in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla

Ubisoft has announced that Assassin’s Creed Valhalla’s first major expansion. This new expansion is known Wrath of the Druids. It will be available on the 29th of April. In addition, Season 2, Ostara Season, features exclusive narrative content and in-game events accessible to all players. Players can celebrate Spring as part of the time-limited Ostara Festival with new challenges and rewards.

Ostara Festival, the first update of Ostara Season, invites players to discover an in-game event active until the 8th of April in a dedicated area of Ravensthorpe. Various Easter-themed festivities will be available, including:

• Settlement decoration activity
• Drinking, Archery, and Fighting mini-games
• Three new character quests: Eivor can enjoy an Egg Hunt, the May-Queen celebration, and protect the settlement against night spirits
• Three new skills: Fearless Leaper lets Eivor land a mastered falling attack atop enemies, while the Raven’s Loot and Loot Food skills increase Eivor’s efficiency when at range or fighting close-up
• Exclusive rewards including settlement decorations and customisation items

Two future updates will add more content for Ostara Season, including:

• Mastery Challenge: A second update will add a new game mode. This new mode builds on Assassin’s Creed Valhalla’s core combat mechanics, bringing a highly replayable combat experience. A Master arrives at the settlement, inspiring Eivor to train and perfect challenges to become a Master.
• Additional rewards

To experience the Ostara Festival, players must reach England and complete one of the first narrative arcs – either Grantebridgescire or Ledecestrescire. The festival will then be triggered automatically when players visit the settlement. To access the May-Queen activity, players’ settlement must have reached Level 3.

Starting right now, players will be able to change Eivor’s gear appearance with visual customisation, better known as transmogrification or “Change Appearance” in-game. The original gear and armour stats remain unchanged as Eivor is visually customised.

This will allow players to stick to their build and unleash their inner Viking in style. Once a piece of gear or a weapon is found, its visuals can be equipped in exchange for silver. You just have to visit the Blacksmith in Ravensthorpe if the item is from the same category.

To celebrate the Assassin’s Creed Valhalla community, players will receive Altair’s Outfit, the Yule Gear Set and cosmetics, and 300 opals for free. To claim the rewards, they must access the Animus Store.

In Wrath of the Druids, players will journey to Ireland and unravel the mysteries of an ancient and mysterious druidic cult, tracking and discovering their members. Diving into Gaelic myths and folklores, they’ll need to fight their way through haunted forests and dazzling landscapes while gaining influence among Gaelic kings.

The Wrath of the Druids expansion can be purchased as a standalone. Players can also access the expansion through the Season Pass. This is available now or as part of the Assassin’s Creed Valhalla Gold, Ultimate, and Collector Editions.
