Assassin’s Creed Valhalla has received a huge new patch today, version 1.1.2 of the game now is available across all platforms and introduces River Raids mode, new skills, and abilities.

Update 1.1.2 went live earlier this morning featuring the River Raids as part of the Yule season content, players get to raid parts of England for loot and other rewards. The new game mode adds a lot of replay value to the game and it’s free for all players.

The patch also features six new skills: Assassin Carry, Assassin Slide, Power Stroke, Arrow Looter, Fight Ready, Long Ship Brace. Three new abilities in the Berserker Trap, Battle Cry, and Shoulder Bash. Berserker Trap essentially works as the hallucination arrows from recent games.
