Do you wish you were playing Assassin's Creed Valhalla right now? If your answer to that question is yes, you're not the only one. We here at Push Square can't wait to get our hands on the Viking-inspired outing from Ubisoft, and soon we'll be able to take one very small step to making that a reality through Assassin's Creed Odyssey. That's because the game is adding a new armour pack named the Northern Traveler's Set. And, well, it looks like it's been taken straight from Eivor's chest of wares.
As pointed out by our Gamer Network friends VG247, Ubisoft doesn't make the connection itself, but it's rather obvious what the French publisher is doing here. The pack includes an axe and armour pieces which wouldn't look out of place on the set of TV show Vikings. We can't wait to see Kassandra suited and booted in this set of armour. Alexios, we hear you say? Who's that?
Before that hits the Assassin's Creed Odyssey in-game store though, there'll be a 3.1GB PlayStation 4 update to download. The patch includes the following fixes:
- Addressed an issue where Cyclops quests weren’t available to some players after Title Update 1.5.3.
- Addressed an issue with the audio output of some of the crowd stations.
- Addressed an issue where a placeholder pop-up could appear upon unlocking Ezio’s Roman outfit.
Are you still playing Assassin's Creed Odyssey? Will you don this viking-themed outfit to get you even more excited about Valhalla? Let us know in the comments below.

I can't stop playing this game. I keep coming back to it. Excited for Vahalla
Very Nice. But the set I patched together from playing Atlantis is my fav still.
Loved Odyssey - Valhalla is Day 1.
Have not started yet who knows maybe soon.
I must admit being late to the party and although i stopped playing the games after AC3 i took a punt on odyssey and i am loving it...but GOT is about to land on my door step tomorrow...
Yes, I'm playing Odyssey right now. No, I don't care of skins since there is Ezio's set. (Btw I don't care of skins in any game)
BUT, THERE IS A BIG BUT...
I have found a bit of cheat or easter egg in AC Odyssey. I think it is just the beginning of some entry, but didn't found it anywhere on internet...
1. When you run game, there is cover picture, than warning and than themed ubisoft logo. Than there are 2 more screens - one, that says the game is based on historical events and next, that this game was made by LGBT+.
2. During this last two screens (before endless checking for additional content) you smash as fast as possible L1 and R1 simultaneously.
3. If you smash properly, your controller starts to rumble. First softly (after about 10 L1R1 smashes) and than more and more intensely (for about next 10 smashes) Then it suddenly stops and again starts from soft to intense rumbling (next cca 10 smashes) I didn't found more, because those two screens were gone. Couldn't count those smashes, because you must be as fast as possible.
4. If you smashed proper amount of L1R1s your controller rumbles when main menu appears (after checking for additional content)
5. Once I've hit some precise amount and when main menu appeared, voice of alexios said "Hey" and when I hit Continue he says "Hoo"
Didn't found anything else and don't know if it is just some easter egg or beginning of some cheat enterance and didn't noticed any changes in game.
Try it yourself, maybe you'll find more. Anyway I'm trying every run of loading game. ☺️
EDIT: I'll be happy even if you were more lucky and let me know there is something about it on internet. Thank you
I am going to play Odyssey after I finish Ghost of Tsushima, I not long brought the season pass for Odyssey so have a lot to do.
more ammunition for the people saying that Valhalla is just a reskinned Odyssey
