Patch 18: Pathfinder Totem, Bear Trap and Bug Fixes
Sons of Valhalla Patch Notes — December 19, 2025
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
Hi folks, it's patch day!
The update 2.0.22 introduces new tactical options such as bear traps, and also adds the Pathfinder Totem, which allows requested units to be teleported directly to your location. We also improved several quality-of-life aspects, including faster and clearer aiming UI, better restocking behavior, and disabling the dog companion by default. In addition, multiple controller-related menu navigation issues have been fixed to make gameplay smoother and more consistent.
