The official document states:
“Ambitious plans for biggest existing franchises, including:
▪ Promising content for Assassin’s Creed® over the coming months and
years, including a powerful post–launch plan for Valhalla in Year 1 and 2″

Last June's Ubisoft Forward livestream confirmed The Siege of Paris expansion for Assassin's Creed: Valhalla. This will expand on the game's story and locations. Players will be able to travel to medieval Francia and invade Paris. There, they will attempt to conquer the kingdom of Charles the Fat. Currently, there is still no set release date for the expansion, other than “Summer 2021.”
Additionally, the Viking Age Discovery Tour will also be part of the updates planned for the game. It will be similar to the Discovery Tours for AC: Origins and AC: Odyssey. The combat-free exploration mode will allow players to look around at their own pace. They may also gain historical insights about the game's locations and events.
Other than these, there have been no details regarding the other incoming DLC planned for Assassin's Creed: Valhalla. They may choose to further expand the story with another full expansion, perhaps relating to the Norse gods.
Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla launched in November on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and Google’s Stadia and Amazon’s Luna services.
