Assassins Creed Valhalla: Can you own a pet? Assassin's Creed Valhalla guide, walkthrough

This page of the guide to AC Valhalla is a collection of information about the animals available in the game. You will find descriptions of horses, ravens, foxes and wolves. You will also learn which of these animals you can always have with you, and which only appear in the game world.

Last update: 04 January 2024

On this page of the Assassin's Creed Valhalla Guide you can find out if you can have your own pets in the game, i.e. pets friendly to Eivor that can accompany him on his adventures and help win fights.

Horse and raven

Eivor is accompanied by a horse and a raven almost from the very beginning of the game.

  1. Eivor can use a horse to travel the game world faster. It is also possible to fight without getting off the horse. When riding on horseback, you can use your bow. Eivor does not use melee weapons on horseback - can only kick enemies or wild animals that are close to his mount. It is worth noting that Eivor doesn't use a single horse throughout the game. You can change horses and acquire new mounts during the course of the game.
  2. Raven is used exclusively for reconnaissance. It can find secrets, locate opponents, or explore quest-related locations.

These two animals cannot be killed or lost. As a result, you don't have to escape when your mount got seriously injured during combat. Even if your horse dies, you will be able to summon another.

The game allows you to train your horse - Assassins Creed Valhalla: Can you own a pet? - Eivor - Assassins Creed Valhalla Guide and Walkthrough

The game allows you to train your horse. In order to do this you have to build a stable and an aviary in the settlement. To get to the new levels, you need to spend money (silver - the main currency of the game), but the new abilities will surely come in handy. You can:

  1. Teach the horse to swim - Not only does it help you to overcome certain obstacles encountered in the game world (you don't have to swim or use the boat so often), but it also allows you to win the Sea Horse Trophy.
  2. Increase your horse's stamina - This will allow you to gallop longer, mainly useful when exploring new regions of the map.
  3. Expand the horse's health bar - the risk of the horse's dying during combat is reduced.
You can change the appearance of your horse and raven - Assassins Creed Valhalla: Can you own a pet? - Eivor - Assassins Creed Valhalla Guide and Walkthrough

You can change the appearance of your horse and raven. New skins for the horse and raven can be unlocked through:

  1. Buying them with silver at the stable and the aviary.
  2. Buying them with Helix credits (real money) in the game store.
