Frequently Asked Questions General When will the next update come out?
There is no set date or time. Updates will be released when they're ready! "It's done, when it's done."
Why are updates taking so long?
Due to the large number of players at Valheim's release we had to prioritize bug fixing, balance and optimization issues. This meant that we couldn't put all of our energy into Hearth & Home until later than expected, you can read more about that here. In general, updates take a long time because we want them to be good and polished before we share them!
Where can I learn more about the game?
We have an additional FAQ on our official website and an official wiki where you can read about resources, enemies, strategies and more.
What does the Early Access status mean?
Early Access means that the game is not yet finished. A lot of things will be added, and a lot of things might change, sometimes several times over. We absolutely value player feedback and take that into account, but there's also no guarantee that every voice will be heard. You can read more about Early Access on our store page.
How many people work at Iron Gate?
When Valheim was released we were five developers, and now we are a team of ten.
Content Will there ever be buildable caves in Valheim?
No. That is not a feature we as developers want in the game and it would also require a complete overhaul of the game engine.
Will new content be added to my world I currently are playing on?
New content such as tar pits, mountain caves and Mistlands in the future will not appear in areas that have been already generated. Areas are generated 300-500 meters from a player's location. "Exploremap" and "resetmap" has no effect.
Will there ever be official mod support?
We probably won't have any official mod support, but it isn't set in stone. Mod support is however not a high priority, so please take caution while downloading and using mods.
What biomes are in the game?
The currently active biomes, in order of boss progression except for the Ocean, are:
1. Meadows
2. Black Forest
3. Swamp
4. Mountain
5. Plains
6. Ocean
The biomes that will be developed in the future are:
7. Mistlands
8. Ashlands
9. Deep North
What will happen to my world when the game is updated?
We can't know this 100%. The things you have already built should still remain, and ideally you will be able to keep playing on your existing world. However, it's not certain that you will be able to access all of the new game content without starting a new world.
Modding If I use mods, will I be able to play when the game updates?
Every time we update the game, many mods that players use become incompatible with the game. Until your mods have been updated by their creators they will most likely not work with Valheim. To make sure you don't lose anything, it's a good idea to backup your worlds and characters [C:\Users\\AppData\LocalLow\IronGate\Valheim] where mods are used before downloading new updates. In order to be certain that you can play larger updates right away, you should also have your mods (temporarily) removed!
How do I disable most mods so I can play the latest version of the game?
Go to steamapps\common\Valheim and move, delete or rename the doorstop_config.ini file.
How to completely delete most mods?
Go to the above folder and delete all folders EXCEPT [MonoBleedingEdge] and [Valheim_Data], also delete all files EXCEPT steam_appid, UnityCrashHandler64, UnityPlayer, Valheim.
