Hello vikings! Summer is here already! In case you’ve missed it, that also means that you’re able to build the Maypole and craft the Midsummer Crown in Valheim – you’ll be able to do so for the rest of June and through the first week of July, so there’s plenty of time still to enjoy the time...

Hello vikings and Rocky-fans! It’s April, and you might have noticed that we were a bit mischievous earlier this month… For clarity, we did a repost of our old April Fools jokes, and as funny as these videos may be they will remain only jokes. But the video that was brand new – the trailer for...

We've gone digging deep into our archives today, vikings! We found some old stuff that you will recognize already (but we're putting it all here anyway so no one misses it), but we also found something that's been gathering dust for ages, perhaps even since the 90s! We made sure to digitize the...

Greetings vikings! We’d like to start off this post by saying thank you to everyone we met at GDC this year! It’s always a pleasure to get to meet people who have played our game, and this time around was no exception. It was great to meet you! But a new blog post also means by now that it’s...

Greetings vikings! Another month has gone by and it’s time for another peek into the development of Valheim. We’re happy to see that so many of you seemed excited to follow Hervor Bloodtooth on her Deep North journey, and thus we’d like to share Part 2 with you! Like last time, we will of...

Greetings Vikings! We hope you’ve had a good ending to 2024, and that 2025 is treating you well thus far! Here at Iron Gate we’re still fully focused on developing the Deep North biome, and we have our hands full with enemies, weapons and dungeons alike. This month’s teaser is going to take on...
