Zoals al duidelijk werd uit de roadmap die onlangs werd vrijgegeven, is er een nieuwe grote update voor Assassin’s Creed live gegaan. Het gaat hier om update 1.5.1. en die voegt heel wat nieuwigheden aan de game toe.

Een eerste toevoeging is het tweede ‘Mastery Challenge Pack’ dat je drie nieuwe shrines en een baasgevecht voorschotelt. Om deze te kunnen beginnen, moet je echter wel minstens een power level van 221 hebben behaald én je moet het eerste Mastery Challenge Pack hebben voltooid. Als je erin slaagt deze uitdagingen te voltooien, staat onder andere een gloednieuw Valkyrie armor op je te wachten. Daarnaast komt ook het Ostara Festival terug van 21 april tot 12 mei, waarbij je nieuwe wapens kan verdienen. Ten slotte krijgen we opnieuw wat bug fixes om het leven mooier te maken.

Bekijk hieronder een greep uit de patch notes, voor een volledig overzicht kan je hier terecht.
