Iron Gate Studio has unveiled an exciting new chapter in their developer diary, giving Valheim enthusiasts a sneak peek into the forthcoming biome, The Deep North. A standout feature of this update is the introduction of the Far North's first creature: seals that are so charming, players might find it hard to bring themselves to hunt them.
In the icy expanses of The Deep North, players will come across seals that vary in appearance based on their quality. For example, seals adorned with horns or spots will provide more resources than their plain 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 follow the adventures of Hervor Blood Tooth as she explores the Far North, offering subtle clues about the new biome. Viewers can catch glimpses of snow-laden shores and mesmerizing auroras, building anticipation for what's to come.
While an official release date for The Deep North remains under wraps, this update is poised to be the final biome added to Valheim. Its arrival could mark the game's transition out of early access, a significant milestone for both the developers and the community eagerly awaiting this expansion.
