Kassandra’s appearance is part of a crossover that actually spans one another both Games. Assassin’s Creed Odyssey players will receive a new free story, “Those Who Are Appreciated,” in which Kassandra or Alexios – after finding Hermes Trismegistus’ immortal staff at the end of the game – travel to the island of Corfu while they are wrestling with the question of what to do with their newfound longevity. In Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, “A Fated Encounter” takes Eivor to the Isle of Skye, Scotland, where they cross blades with Kassandra.
The crossover stories will be available on Tuesday as part of a free update for both games, said Ubisoft in a press release. Just as a warning: when players want the new content Valhalla, you will have to download a completely new version of the game again, even though it will take up less space afterwards.

(Depending on the platform, 39 GB to 77 GB are executed.)
Ubisoft has also announced this Odyssey will receive an update to version 1.5.6 tomorrow, which brings Ports as fast travel destinations in addition to the new stories.
