Assassin’s Creed Valhalla hotfixes address bugs blocking quest progression

Ubisoft has released hotfixes for bugs blocking progression in four Assassin’s Creed Valhalla quests.

While it’s “working on more permanent solutions”, the company has released four server-side hotfixes as temporary solutions.

The fixes address the following problems:

  • Unable to proceed with Old Wounds
    • Cannot interact with Estrid
  • Unable to proceed with Unholy Father
    • Cannot interact with NPC
  • Unable to proceed with The Thegn of Lincoln
    • Cannot interact with Aelfgar
  • Unable to complete Falling Stars mystery
    • Ysane doesn’t follow the player

If players are unable to progress the quests after loading their save game, Ubisoft said they should:

  1. Create a manual save
  2. Close the game entirely, then launch it again
  3. Load the created save
  4. You should now be able to proceed with the respective quest

“If you reload the game before proceeding with the respective quest, you’ll have to relaunch the game application before being able to proceed with the quest,” Ubisoft added.
