• Odin: Valhalla Rising is set to introduce its newest anniversary content in this latest update
• That includes the new bard class, the third advancement for priests with powerful buffs & debuffs
• Not only that, but you’ll find previews of the 2026 summer update and plenty of login rewards

Whether you’re a fan or not, Kakao Games’ Odin: Valhalla Rising has proven to be hugely popular. Now, a year onwards, the developer is set to celebrate Odin: Valhalla Rising’s 1st anniversary in style, kicking off with the introduction of a brand-new class!

Music and art were, surprisingly, quite important to Viking culture. And while the name may not be accurate (skald is probably more appropriate), the bard class promises to add a little music to proceedings. Surprisingly, they also serve as the third advancement of the Priest class, focusing on buffs for allies and debuffs for enemies.

Not only that, but while it may be a while away, this anniversary event will also include a glimpse of the 2026 summer update. Promising to be a significant one, it’ll introduce Domain Defence and Guild Clashes, alongside Siege War and chapter six, Asgard, which promises to expand the Nine Realms even further.
