Valheim
Valheim is an open-world survival and exploration game set in a procedurally generated world inspired by Norse mythology. Playing alone or with up to nine other players, you explore dangerous biomes, gather resources, craft weapons and armour, build Viking settlements and longships, and battle powerful creatures and bosses in order to prove yourself worthy of Odin. Progression is tied to exploration and defeating the Forsaken, with each biome introducing new enemies, resources, crafting possibilities and challenges. From the peaceful Meadows to the frozen Deep North, players can build, farm, sail, fight and explore the tenth world at their own pace.

What people are saying
Updated nightlyValheim is a Viking survival game that gets a lot right, with most players loving its exploration, building, and multiplayer. The core loop of gathering, crafting, and sailing to new biomes is deeply satisfying, and the building system is widely praised as a standout. The catch is that the difficulty can be punishing and technical performance is a common, often severe, complaint. Recent content updates like Mistlands and Ashlands have left many players frustrated, feeling they leaned too hard on tedious difficulty over rewarding exploration.
