| | patchnotes = The time has come for all those who have stocked up on gold from troll caves and fuling villages! Said gold is the prime currency in the world of Valheim after all, and there's a new vendor in the tenth realm where you can spend your riches. | | | patchnotes = Greetings vikings! |
|
| |
|
| For as you know, Haldor is not the only merchant in the family – and his sister Hildir has made her way to Valheim at last. But she has had some trouble on the way, and it appears most of her stock has gone missing. When you find her, she might request some help! By completing the tasks she has for you, you will unlock more things to buy from her – both new clothing as well as some other items that might come in handy in your base.
| | Today marks the five year anniversary since Valheim was first released into Early Access – and what an incredible five years it’s been! |
| | |
| | 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. |
| | |
| | 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! |
| | |
| | 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. |
| | |
| | Once again, thank you so much for being with us for five whole years! |
| | |
| | Skål!! |

|
| This update also brings some long awaited server modifiers; select a lower difficulty for a more casual experience, ramp it up for a hardcore playthrough, or come up with a mix of your own! Besides general difficulty, you will find settings for portals, resources, raids and more, all so that you can customise your experience to your viking heart's content.
