AN UPDATE ON STADIA

Following the recent announcement that Stadia is closing down, Title Update 1.6.2 will be the last one to be deployed on that platform.
Stadia players will be able to continue their experience in Assassin's Creed Valhalla up until January 18 before the service becomes unavailable.
We are working on bringing the games you own on Stadia to PC through Ubisoft Connect. Stay tuned for details on timing.
In the meantime, thanks to Ubisoft Connect's cross-platform progression feature, players who already own Assassin's Creed Valhalla on consoles or PC can directly pick-up their story where they left it off on Stadia.
