Iron Gate Studio has unveiled an exciting new entry in their developer diary, providing eager players with a sneak peek into the forthcoming Valheim biome: The Deep North. The spotlight of this reveal is on the first creature to inhabit this icy expanse—the charming seals, which players might find too adorable to hunt.
Within the frosty realms of The Deep North, players will come across seals that vary in appearance depending on their quality. For example, horned or spotted seals will offer more valuable resources than their regular counterparts, prompting players to make thoughtful hunting choices to maximize their gains.
Iron Gate has taken a unique route in teasing this update, opting for narrative-driven videos over conventional trailers. These videos chronicle the adventures of Hervor Blood Tooth as she explores the Far North, subtly hinting at what's to come. Viewers can catch fleeting glimpses of snow-draped shores and mesmerizing auroras, building anticipation for the new biome.
While an official release date for The Deep North remains under wraps, this update is anticipated to be the final biome added to Valheim. This could mark the game's transition from early access to a full release, a milestone that fans have been eagerly awaiting.
