Development Blog: Hervor Bloodtooth

Greetings Vikings!

We hope you’ve had a good ending to 2024, and that 2025 is treating you well thus far! Here at Iron Gate we’re still fully focused on developing the Deep North biome, and we have our hands full with enemies, weapons and dungeons alike.

This month’s teaser is going to take on a slightly different form than what we’re all used to, however. Starting today, you’ll get to follow the journey of a viking as she travels to the Deep North and explores the new landscape there. Allow us to introduce you to Hervor Bloodtooth:

She has arrived! Her adventure will continue – as will the sneak peeks of the Deep North – in the next blog post, with another short episode. Don’t miss out!

If you’re not a fan of videos, we’ll of course continue to tease with images as well. Landing in the Deep North will offer you a sight of its shoreline, which can look like this:

The northern lights and heavy, snow-covered trees are there to welcome any questing traveller. But is it as peaceful as it appears at first glance?

Build of the Month

The first build we’d like to highlight this year is made by Leiflegends. There’s so much detail in those cabins, well done indeed!

If you want your creation to be featured in this section, use the hashtag #ValheimBotM on social media. Please also send us a DM with a link to your post, to make sure that we see it. You can view previous builds in this thread on Steam.

Good sailing!
