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 upcoming Deep North biome. The star of the show? Seals! Almost too cute to hunt, but the resources are too tempting to resist.

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

Interestingly, Iron Gate is taking a unique approach to teasing this update. Instead of relying on traditional trailers, they've opted for a captivating narrative-driven video series following the adventures of Hervor Blood Tooth as she braves the Far North. Each episode subtly reveals details of the new biome, showcasing breathtaking vistas of snow-covered shores and mesmerizing auroras.

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