| patchnotes = Greetings vikings!


Prior to launching this update to the Default version of the game, we want to have a chance to discover bugs and fine-tune the balancing to ensure the best game experience.
Today marks the five year anniversary since Valheim was first released into Early Access – and what an incredible five years it’s been!


[list][*][b]ACCESS[/b]: Right-click Valheim in your Steam library, then select ‘Properties’. In the new window, select ‘Betas’ and type in the code “[spoiler]yesimadebackups[/spoiler]”. The Public Test branch should now be available for you to select. The PTB FAQ can be found [url=https://steamcommunity.com/app/892970/discussions/0/3589961352692129408/]here[/url].
We want to thank everyone who has been a part of our journey and our community since then, whether you started playing on day one or have just been carried by the valkyrie for the first time. We greatly appreciate every single one of you, and we’re so glad to have you walk this path with us.


[*][b]FEEDBACK[/b]: Please leave any feedback in the “#valheim-public-test” channel in our [url=https://steamcommunity.com:/linkfilter/?url=https://discord.gg/valheim/]Discord[/url] or through the [url=https://steamcommunity.com:/linkfilter/?url=https://valheim.com/support/]form on our website[/url].
For this anniversary you will find a patch live right now for everyone, with some new celebratory items and emotes, along with some quality of life fixes!


[/list]Please remember to [b]be considerate[/b] towards players who are not participating in the Public Test, as some may prefer to avoid spoilers. As indicated by the access code, please ensure to create backups of your save files before playing.[/quote]
If you want to keep the celebration going throughout the week, you can tune in to [url=https://www.twitch.tv/ard]Twitch[/url] on Friday, where there will be a livestreamed concert by the Munich Radio Orchestra! They will be playing music from a bunch of video games, including Valheim.


As you all know, we’re working on Deep North, which will be the final biome update that brings the game into 1.0. While we can’t give an update on that today, we can share that 2026 is going to be a great year for Valheim.


Further tweaks and bug fixes are incoming! For this round we have made some adjustments to enemy spawning, such as giving the shield generator the same anti-spawning properties as a workbench. There are also some tweaks to the new Drakkar ship to make it easier to get back onto should you fall overboard, as well as some terrain changes to make it a bit easier to sail into the Ashlands.
Once again, thank you so much for being with us for five whole years!


In addition to the fixes, we have also added two new build pieces, and these you will be able to place directly in the lava if you so desire!
Skål!!
