This update is for the Public Test branch of Valheim, and may therefore be unstable. Before we launch this update to the Default version of the game, we want to make sure to have a chance to discover bugs and adjust the balancing, to give you the best game experience possible.
Access the Public Test branch by right clicking Valheim in your Steam library, and then select ‘Properties’. In the new window, select ‘Betas’ and type in the code “yesimadebackups”. The Public Test branch should now be available for you to choose from.
Please leave any feedback you may have in the appropriate channel in our Discord, or in the subforum here on Steam.
As always, remember to be considerate towards players not partaking in the Public Test, in case they want to avoid spoilers.
As the password indicates, please make sure to make backups of your save files before playing.
A huge thanks to everyone who has participated in the Public Test so far! We have fixed a bunch of the bugs and issues discovered over the past week and a half, and would like to invite you to test some more before we can release this update to the Live game.
One of the big things we have fixed is the fishing, where you couldn’t properly pick up fish when they were on land. Now you should be able to embrace your inner fisher properly! Some building related things have also been adjusted, such as the resource cost for building many of the new pieces. Additionally, the ballista has gotten some tweaks done to it, and some mobs have gotten a stern talking-to about how to behave.
Another thing we think you’ll enjoy is that we’ve enabled the Yule items again, seeing as it’s that time of the year! The old Yule tree and Yuleklapp are there of course, as well as some new items…
