Valheim Unveils First Creature in New Biome

by Jacob Mar 29,2025

Iron Gate Studio has unveiled a new chapter in their developer diary, giving Valheim enthusiasts an exciting sneak peek into the forthcoming Far North biome. The standout feature of this update is the introduction of the region's first creature: seals that are endearingly cute yet vital for survival.

In the chilling expanses of The Deep North, players will encounter seals that vary in appearance and resource yield based on their quality. For example, horned or spotted seals offer richer rewards compared to their regular counterparts, prompting players to make strategic hunting choices to maximize their gains.

Iron Gate has taken a unique approach to teasing this update, opting for narrative-driven videos over traditional trailers. These videos follow the adventures of Hervor Blood Tooth as she explores the Far North, subtly revealing elements of the new biome, including snow-laden shores and mesmerizing auroras.

While an official release date for The Deep North remains under wraps, anticipation is high as this update is poised to unveil the final biome in Valheim. This milestone could mark the game's transition from early access to a full release, much to the excitement of its dedicated player base.
