From the Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valheim)
Valheim is an upcoming survival and sandbox video game by the Swedish developer Iron Gate Studio and published by Coffee Stain Studios.[1] It was released in early access on 2 February 2021 for Linux and Windows via Steam, and for Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S on 14 March 2023.[2][3] The game was developed by a five-person team, building on development work which Richard Svensson had undertaken as a side project in his spare time.[4] Since its early access release, Valheim has achieved both critical and commercial success, being praised as a ″rare exception″ of a refined early access game. A month after its release, it had sold over five million copies and was one of the most played games on Steam.
Valheim takes place in a world where slain Vikings go to prove themselves fit for the halls of Valhalla. As one such, the player begins with nothing and soon discovers that to reach the Norse afterlife, they must defeat the evils that stalk Valheim.[5] Led only by their instincts and occasional hints from a raven,[6] the player must prepare to fight the sworn enemies of Odin himself.[7]
The term "Valheim" denotes a fictional tenth world within the world tree Yggdrasil of Norse mythology.
Valheim is developed by Iron Gate Studio, a small Swedish game development studio formed during the game's production. Studio co-founders Richard Svensson and Henrik Tornqvist were both coworkers at a local game development company called Pieces Interactive.[19][20] Before Valheim, Svensson had previously begun development on a simulation game called Tolroko in his spare time.[21] However, this game was ultimately unreleased; according to Tornqvist, Svensson realized that it was "redundant to implement simulation systems for their own sake, rather than for the player".[21] With his next game, Svensson wanted to make an open-world experience where its simulations improved the player's experience.[22]
Svensson began working on Valheim in 2017 under the working title of Fejd (Swedish for "feud").[19][20] He ended up leaving Pieces Interactive in 2018 to work on Valheim full time, and convinced Tornqvist to join him later that year.[19] The game was released into alpha in June 2018[23] and officially released into early access on 2 February 2021, with no full release date announced so far.
Continued support for the game is planned, and it involves the expansion of unfinished biomes, as well as improvements to fundamental game mechanics.[24] Iron Gate Studio updated the game on 16 September 2021 with the "Hearth & Home" update. This update brought general improvements to the game and introduced new food, weapons, and build options.[25]
In December 2022, Iron Gate released the "Mistlands" update for Valheim. The update added a new biome (the Mistlands), along with a large quantity of new content. This content included enemies, neutral NPCs, random events, items, food, building parts, the sixth main boss, crafting stations, weapons, and a few other miscellaneous features. The update also saw the addition of a magic system (and four magic weapons to go with it).[26]
During the Xbox Games Showcase 2022 Extended on 14 June, it was announced that Valheim would be coming to Windows 10 via Microsoft Store in Q3 2022, and later in Q2 2023 to Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S consoles. These versions, developed by external studios Piktiv and Fishlabs, will support cross-platform play and launch directly into Xbox Game Pass. Meanwhile, Iron Gate Studio will focus on the "core Valheim experience and its next major update milestones".[27] In February 2023, it was announced that the game would release on the consoles on 14 March 2023.[3]
Valheim has received positive reviews from critics.[29] IGN Nordic gave the game a rating of 9/10, stating that the game has "excellent art and music highlighting a world that generates endless exciting stories".[28]
A month after its release, it had sold five million copies and was one of the most-played games on Steam.[32][19] It sold over 10 million copies on Steam by July 2022.[33]
