If your Epic Games PC installation of Assassin's Creed: Valhalla isn't launching at all - when you either try to launch from within the Epic Games program or via the shortcut that was created and it gives you nothing, no splash screen, just....nothing....this fix worked for me.

Go into your install directory (in my case C:\Program Files\Epic Games\AssassinsCreedValhalla) and double click ACValhalla.exe. That allowed the Ubisoft Connect Launcher to update, which is apparently necessary.

THEN I was able to get it to launch, either by using the existing desktop shortcut, the Epic Games program Launch button, or double-clicking ACValhalla.exe. Hope this helps someone. Skal!

Hey there @too_kwuacked , thanks for reaching out about this. I'm sorry you'd faced an issue when trying to launch Valhalla from Epic.

I gather you're trying the workaround suggested by other players, and I appreciate you letting us know. This isn't something that should be happening in the first place, though, so I'd like to investigate. Can you give me a bit more information about what happened when you tried to start up Valhalla? Was there a splash screen or any error message? Or did nothing at all happen?

Can you also tell me if you tried any of the steps from our troubleshooting guide, and if they made any difference when trying to launch the game?

With this information, I'll have a better idea of how to investigate this further, in case it happens to other players. Thanks very much for your help with this 🙂
