It became available at 12:00 am EDT, and the update was released at the same time worldwide, regardless of time zone. As for the content, it fixed a save issue in Francia, and there may be other hidden improvements as well.

Compared to other releases for Assassin's Creed Valhalla, the Siege of Paris seems to be doing rather well in terms of updates and potential bugs. The launch of Assassin's Creed Valhalla was certainly rocky, and Wrath of the Druids also had its share of issues. Wrath of the Druids was the first DLC that took place in Ireland.

Due to previous bugs in the game, the season of DLC slated for Assassin's Creed Valhalla was delayed. That delay included the Siege of Paris, and it appears to have been for the better. Update 4.01 is sure to help players and isn't as beefy as past fixes for the game.

The Siege of Paris DLC was released on August 12 for each platform that has Assassin's Creed Valhalla.
