AC Valhalla has brought the return of Reda, the Thousand Eyes merchant from previous titles.

Unfortunately, it appears some of Ubisoft's notable game-breaking bugs have made their way into the latest installment in their flagship Assassin's Creed franchise. Assassin's Creed: Valhalla brought Reda back into the game to sell his wares on a weekly basis with a rollover every Monday at 9 p.m. It appears, however, that some unlucky players are finding his store empty whenever they attempt to load it up.

Reda's shop is the center of a new bug uncovered by Assassin's Creed players. Veteran players will remember him as the Black Market Merchant from Assassin's Creed: Origins. Now, he's back, offering unique items, contracts, and currency for Eivor at their settlement of Ravensthorpe. That is, if the game loads his wares correctly.

Players have been reporting this glitch at an alarming rate over the past 24 hours. Reddit user Revoemag1987 made a post on the game's subreddit board around 18 hours ago at the time of writing. In their post, they outline the issue as, "his shop for daily and weekly both just say 'This section is Empty' even though they had 17 hours left on them."

Other users shared the grievance in the comments over this and other glitches encountered within the first few hours of gameplay.

"I've had achievements not pop when I completed the requirements, things disappearing, not getting a skill after supposedly unlocking it, my jomsviking has a symbol over his head that I can see clear across the map, no matter how far away I am," wrote user RaynaReyes.

"Some of the bugs are cute or funny for a sec but a lot of them are seriously hindrances to gameplay. I can’t even get a particular full armor set because of a glitch," user krazyrunnr replied.

Ubisoft has yet to come forward with confirmation or information about this bug. No fix is currently available.
