Valheim Developers Reveal First Creature of Upcoming Biome

Iron Gate Studio has unveiled a charming new entry in their developer diary series, giving Valheim players a delightful sneak peek at the highly anticipated Deep North biome. The star of this icy showcase? Seals! And they're almost too cute to hunt.

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

Intriguingly, Iron Gate is taking a unique approach to teasing this update. Instead of relying on traditional trailers, they've opted for a captivating narrative format, following the adventures of Hervor Blood Tooth as she braves the Far North. Each episode subtly unveils aspects of the new biome, offering glimpses of snow-dusted coastlines and breathtaking auroras.

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