Valheim's New Biome: First Creature Unveiled

Iron Gate Studio has released a new developer diary, giving players a sneak peek at Valheim's next biome: The Deep North. The star of the show? Adorable—almost too adorable—seals!

The frosty landscapes of The Deep North update introduce seals with varying appearances and resource yields. Horned or spotted seals, for example, offer richer rewards than their plain counterparts, adding a strategic layer to hunting.

Interestingly, Iron Gate is unveiling this update through a series of narrative-driven videos, following the adventures of Hervor Blood Tooth as she explores the Far North. Instead of a traditional trailer, these episodes subtly reveal details of the new biome, showcasing snow-covered shores and breathtaking auroras.

While an official release date for The Deep North remains unannounced, this update is anticipated to be Valheim's final biome, potentially marking the game's exit from early access.
