Update: Assassin's Creed Valhalla patch 1.041.2 is available to download now on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4. It's around 405MB in size, so it shouldn't take long to install. As mentioned below, this update promises to fix the Yule Festival for some players. Said festival refused to activate if you had already taken part in last year's event.
Other Yule Festival progression bugs have also been fixed, apparently.
Original Story: Ubisoft will release a new update for Assassin's Creed Valhalla tomorrow, on the 5th January. The awkwardly numbered patch 1.4.1.2 promises to fix issues with the game's seasonal Yule Festival event, which has been broken for some players since before the Christmas holidays. Not ideal, but at least Ubisoft's getting round to fixing it now that developers are back to work.
Of course, this also means that the Yule Festival will now be extended until late January — the 27th to be exact. Hopefully this means that everyone gets to partake in the celebrations over the next few weeks.
This is Valhalla's first update of 2022, and we're sure that it'll be far from the last. With Assassin's Creed Valhalla: Dawn of Ragnarok out in March, Ubisoft wants to keep players busy with another year of content. It probably won't be long until we hear about the game's next major patch.

I don’t think I’ve had any issues with the Yule thingy. I got enough tokens to buy everything after about 5 minutes work so I would quite like it to go away soon. The snow bizarrely in one big circle and nowhere else on the map is odd.
@nessisonett Did you partake in it in Xmas 2020 when it was first done? Basically the issue is anyone including myself who done it first time in Xmas 2020 are blocked from doing it the 2nd time with the Xmas 2021 version.
@WallyWest Nah, I only started the game a couple of weeks ago. Sunk tens of hours into it already.
@nessisonett @WallyWest Yeah, same thing happened to me. Ravensthorpe is all snowy but the festival never actually kicked in. Bit of a shame, but at least it's being fixed.
Oh..I thought the Yule festive was broke for everyone..so I did not jump in to check it out. I’ll drop in when the patch is live, sounds cool.
Lol - another timely fix from Ubi - once the hols have gone.
Its a real shame for those that are still fans of the games..
I didn't experience the bug myself despite playing last years, but that's because I've stopped playing the game and promised myself I never will again xD
Is yule festival worth it? Skipped it last year. Just started the game again. Lvl 50ish
@Elodin The gear set from it is the one that comes with the physical copy I got from Amazon. You can also get a truly hideous hairstyle, a decent bow and not much else.
@nessisonett I will probably look into it for the bow, as mine is crap atm. Thanks for the info!
