Valheim Devs Unveil First Creature in New Biome

Iron Gate Studio has unveiled a new chapter in their developer diary, giving Valheim enthusiasts an exciting preview of the forthcoming biome: The Deep North. A standout feature of this update is the introduction of the Far North's inaugural creature—seals that are so charming, players might find it hard to take aim.

In the icy expanses of The Deep North, players will come across seals with varied appearances, depending on their quality. Horned or spotted seals, for example, offer richer resources than their regular counterparts, prompting players to make thoughtful hunting choices.

Iron Gate has opted for an innovative method to tease this new update. Rather than relying on conventional trailers, they've chosen to release narrative-driven videos that follow the adventures of Hervor Blood Tooth as she explores the Far North. These episodes subtly hint at what's to come, showcasing snow-laden coastlines and mesmerizing auroras.

While an official release date for The Deep North remains under wraps, this update is anticipated to be the final biome added to Valheim, possibly marking the game's transition from early access to a full release. Keep an eye out for more updates from Iron Gate Studio as we await this eagerly anticipated expansion.
