Valheim Updates

Valheim Updates ;Valheim has successfully skyrocketed since its Steam Early Access release in early February, and now over four million players are getting axes and shields to earn their place in Valhalla. We've seen troll heads roll, avoidable greyling deaths, and Vikings unite to take on tough Valheim Bosses.

Since we first fell into Viking purgatory, Valheim has stepped in with nothing but our underwear and a will to survive, setting the course for a long journey through turbulent waters and hostile biomes. Part of its success as a survival game comes down to top-notch base building and a robust yet fair progression system that has bred some of the best gaming memes to date.

The simple yet versatile building system ignited players' creativity – not only did it have players build Sauron's eye, but it also created a replica of the Millennium Falcon using what we can only imagine was a lot of wood. There's a lot more where this came from as the first update focused on core building and recipes, but Iron Gate Studio has revealed exactly what we can expect from Valheim's future.

VALHEIM RELEASE HISTORY ROADMAP

There will be four major Valheim updates and more mods and blueprints on the way, along with smaller patch notes to balance the game and fix bugs. While there aren't any promised release dates yet, here's what to expect from each major Valheim update.

  • Hearth and Home – home cooking and cooking
  • Wolf Cult – exploration and warfare
  • Ships and Sea – Boat upgrades and more “stuff” in the ocean biome
  • Mistlands – a brand new “pretty foggy and uninhabited” biome.

We can visit Mistlands already, but it currently has no content, so we hope this update fills in the gaps in our current world. The most adventurous Vikings among us have discovered another new biome – Ashlands – where you can extract Flametal from piles of glowing metal. Right now this resource is of no use, but we're keen to see what cool Valheim weapons we can make with it.

IF ODIN WANTS

Alongside these four updates are more plans to implement, such as adding Odin's other raven Munin, improving combat, and creating more locations for the Vikings to explore.

  • Multiplayer interactions
  • Combat improvements
  • The phases of the moon
  • tar pits
  • Vendor inventory expansion
  • Svartalfr Brigands
  • More unique locations
  • Sandbox Mode
  • Munin
