The game was released into alpha in June 2018 and officially released into early access on 2 February 2021, with no full release date announced so far.Ĭontinued support for the game is planned, and it involves the expansion of unfinished biomes, as well as improvements to fundamental game mechanics. He ended up leaving Pieces Interactive in 2018 to work on Valheim full time, and convinced Tornqvist to join him later that year. Svensson began working on Valheim in 2017 under the working title of Fejd (Swedish for "feud"). With his next game, Svensson wanted to make an open-world experience where its simulations improved the player's experience.

However, this game was ultimately unreleased according to Tornqvist, Svensson realized that it was "redundant to implement simulation systems for their own sake, rather than for the player". Before Valheim, Svensson had previously begun development on a simulation game called Tolroko in his spare time. Studio co-founders Richard Svensson and Henrik Tornqvist were both coworkers at a local game development company called Pieces Interactive. Valheim is developed by Iron Gate Studio, a small Swedish game development studio formed during the game's production. Players can travel through the different biomes either by foot or on crafted boats, which range from rafts to different types of Viking longships. Ĭombat makes use of one- and two-handed weapons, shields, bows, spears. Power-ups can be used infinitely, but the player needs to wait for a brief period between uses. Bosses will drop a collectable trophy when killed this trophy can be placed at a central altar to grant each player a special power-up. To summon each boss, players must travel to each boss' altar and give a specific item as an offering. The main objective of the game is to kill the five bosses located in different biomes of the game. For example, the spears skill will determine the damage the player can do with spears, while the running skill will determine how stamina is drained while sprinting. Each skill can be increased up to a level of 100 and has different effects on the game mechanics. In addition, the game utilizes a skill-level system that ranges from blocking to running.
This can not only restore health and stamina, but can also temporarily increase how much of each the player has, depending on the variation and quality of the food that is eaten. To replenish either bar, players can eat food. Players have a health bar (which depletes from enemy attacks or taking large falls), as well as a stamina bar that drains as players perform actions like running and attacking. These resources are used to build shelters, make tools and equipment, and forge weapons. To survive, players must gather natural resources found throughout the world, either through foraging, hunting, mining, or farming. Valheim operates on an in-game day and night cycle. Each biome has its own unique enemies, items, and bosses that change how difficult it is to survive there. Each world is split into several biomes, such as meadows, the Black Forest, swamps, mountains, plains, oceans, the Mistlands, the Deep North, and the Ashlands. Īfter creating their Viking character, players can create a world that is procedurally generated from a map seed. Co-operative gameplay with up to ten people and optional PvP gameplay is also supported. The game uses distinctive low-resolution stylized 3D graphics, with a combat system inspired by action games. As fallen Vikings, players must craft tools, build shelters and fight enemies to survive. Valheim is an open-world survival game played from a third-person perspective. The term "Valheim" denotes a fictional tenth world within the world tree Yggdrasil of Norse mythology. Led only by their instincts and occasional hints from a raven, the player must prepare to fight the sworn enemies of Odin himself. As one such, the player begins with nothing and soon discovers that to reach the Norse afterlife, they must defeat the evils that stalk Valheim. Valheim takes place in a world where slain Vikings go to prove themselves fit for the halls of Valhalla.
