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 nightlyPeople are overwhelmingly into Valheim for its satisfying survival and building loop in a huge, Norse-inspired world, where you can explore, fight bosses, and craft with friends. The gameplay itself is praised, and the building system in particular is a huge hit. The biggest sticking points are the difficulty spikes and performance issues, which can frustrate players, and some of the newer biome updates like Mistlands and Ashlands have landed poorly with many fans. It's a fantastic game for co-op, but be ready for some jank and a steep grind.
