As for Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, paid downloadable content (DLC) will be introduced to add a character and weapons pack for the game. The character pack adds “armor sets, swords, a scout skin and a mount skin,” while the weapons pack brings “four unique spins on Destiny’s iconic subclasses, each with their own gameplay perks and custom effects.”

For both Destiny 2 and Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, the updates are planned to launch on December 6 – which is when the update for Destiny 2, patch 6.3.0, is planned for. In this blog, Bungie outlines that Destiny 2 will be briefly taken offline during the morning to implement the patch, and December 6 is the last day players will need to unlock this season’s rewards by.

“On December 6, we will be releasing our final content update for Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, wrapping up two amazing years of post-launch support,” shared Ubisoft.

The game’s final update will also bring one more expansion, titled The Last Chapter. The expansion will consist of a free quest arc that “nicely ties up some of the storylines established through the game,” and offers protagonist Eivor a chance to explore “distant shores and new adventures.”
