Hello - Sorry for bad English.

I've had a short break from AC valhalla, but upon returning it's become unplayable for me. I've never been truly frustrated and angry upon a bug/feature, until now.

The game constantly presses my right trigger (heavy hit) and I have to press the button physically for it to unlock. Although sometimes it releases it by itself. It's very random.

Since the button is pressed (and hold) I can't play the game as intended.

Instead of Odin's sight, I switch hands
Instead of interacting with object I trigger an ability
It interupts my running with a heavy hit
It zooms in map view
I randomly kill civilians

I've restarted the game, the system and the controller several times. Nothing improves it.

The gameplay has become torture as it is very random and it's making the game completely unplayable for me and I want my money back, how do i proceed?

Hello there! I'm sorry to hear about this. Could you let me know whether or not this issue persists in any other games, or perhaps with a different controller? I'd also like to know if you're able to change your button layout, and if this issue persists if the right trigger button is bound to a different action altogether?

Hello @KAD_LMT and welcome to Discussions!

First of all, please accept my apologies for not getting back to you sooner. Could you please confirm for me if your controller is on this list of supported peripherals?
I would kindly ask you to record a short video of the issue showing the issue itself and the game version and send us a link so we can investigate this further.

Please let me know if I can help you with anything else.

@kad_lmt Thank you for your reply. Are you able to factory reset the controller to see if it helps?


Reset the DUALSHOCK 4 wireless controller:

  • Turn off and unplug your PS4 console. 
  • Locate the small reset button on the back of the controller near the L2 shoulder button.
  • Use a small tool to push the button inside the tiny hole. Hold the button down for roughly 3–5 seconds.
  • Connect the controller to the PS4 console using a USB cable and press the PS button.
  • If the light bar turns blue, the controller has paired.


Please let us know the outcome of this.

Thank you.
