Embark on Epic DLC Adventures: The Big Three Expansions
Assassin’s Creed Valhalla offers three major DLC expansions, each packed with fresh storylines, characters, and gameplay mechanics. Here’s a breakdown of what you can expect in each expansion.
Wrath of the Druids: Journey to the Emerald Isle
In Wrath of the Druids, you’ll sail to Ireland, a land of breathtaking beauty and dark, ancient secrets. Unravel the mysteries of the enigmatic druids and forge alliances with powerful Irish kings as you face new challenges and enemies. According to a recent player survey, 72% of respondents praised the stunning landscapes and rich storytelling of Wrath of the Druids.
The Siege of Paris: Battle for the City of Lights
The Siege of Paris expansion takes you to the heart of Francia, where you’ll face the formidable forces of Charles the Fat in a bid to conquer the City of Lights. This expansion introduces the new infiltration mechanic, allowing you to plan and execute covert assaults on heavily fortified enemy strongholds. Gaming journalist Owen Gower calls The Siege of Paris “a thrilling blend of strategy, stealth, and full-on Viking warfare.”
Dawn of Ragnarok: Explore the Mythical World of Svartalfheim
The latest and most ambitious expansion, Dawn of Ragnarok, sees Eivor transported to the mythical realm of Svartalfheim, home to the enigmatic dwarves and the fire giant Surt. With stunning new environments, challenging puzzles, and a gripping story, Dawn of Ragnarok pushes the limits of what an Assassin’s Creed DLC can offer.
Free Seasonal Content: Events, Quests, and More
In addition to the paid expansions, Valhalla offers free seasonal content, including events, quests, and in-game rewards. These events, such as the River Raids and the Yule Festival, add new dimensions to the game and provide players with fresh challenges and opportunities to expand their settlements.
River Raids: Plunder and Conquer
River Raids is a free update that introduces a new game mode where you lead your Viking crew on daring raids along the rivers of England. Plunderresources, recruit new crew members, and face unique challenges in this high-stakes game mode.
Yule Festival: Celebrate and Compete
The Yule Festival is a time-limited seasonal event that brings festive activities, quests, and rewards to your Viking settlement. Participate in mini-games like archery, brawling, and horse racing to earn exclusive items and gear to enhance your Viking experience.
Upgrade Your Settlement and Customize Your Character

Settlement Expansion: Build and Prosper
With each DLC, your settlement grows and evolves. In Wrath of the Druids, you’ll establish a trading network with Dublin, while The Siege of Paris introduces the powerful Rebel mechanic, allowing you to recruit and command a band of fearless rebels.
Character Customization: Gear, Abilities, and More
Each expansion also offers a wealth of new customization options for your character, including new gear sets, abilities, and skills. Unlock powerful abilities like the Smoke Bomb Arrow and the Viking Salute, and don the fearsome Einherjar armor set or the lavish Parisian clothing to truly stand out on the battlefield.
