The first major expansion for Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla has been delayed, but fear not as it’s only a small delay.
The first expansion entitled “Wrath of the Druids” which is set in Ireland was supposed to release on April 29th, but now it will release May 13th. So at least the delay is only a mere two weeks.
The news of the delay was announced on the Assassin’s Creed Twitter account: “To deliver a more refined experience, we’re sharing that Wrath of the Druids will now release on May 13.”
The tweet continued: “We’re working on an article to provide transparency and share insights on our dev process Thanks for your patience. Keep an eye on our social channels for future news!”
To be fair seeing as the delay is only an additional two weeks, it’s not a major concern, especially if it means that the expansion will be better for it. Plus, it just means that we’ll have a little more time to finish the Valhalla main campaign or mop up any additional side-quests.
According to a Ubisoft press release: “Wrath of the Druids, launches on May 13 and brings players to Ireland to uncover the secrets of a mysterious ancient cult.
“Along the way, you’ll discover the occult forests and haunted landscapes of Gaelic folklore while gaining influence among regional kings.”
Wrath of the Druids will be available to Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla season pass holders at no extra cost as well as being available as a standalone purchase for those that don’t.
In our review of Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla we said: “It’s fun, it’s vast and it continues to give players the freedom to do pretty much whatever they want to do in the game.”
