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 the show? Incredibly cute seals—almost too adorable to hunt!
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 standard counterparts, adding a strategic layer to the hunting experience.
Interestingly, Iron Gate has opted for a unique approach to teasing this update. Instead of relying on traditional trailers, they've crafted a captivating narrative series following the adventures of Hervor Blood Tooth as she braves the Far North. Each episode subtly unveils elements of the new biome, showcasing breathtaking snow-covered shores and mesmerizing 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 transition out of early access.
