Valheim is a collaborative exploration and survival game for 1-10 players set in a procedurally generated world inspired by Norse mythology. Craft powerful weapons, construct elaborate halls, and slay mighty foes to prove yourself to Odin!
Discover an immersive procedurally generated world, with different biomes that each have their distinct environments, unique resources and dangerous enemies. Become a Viking and sail the open seas in search of lands unknown, alone or with up to nine friends!
The Tenth World has been corrupted by hateful forces, in the shape of mighty regional bosses known as the Forsaken. Hone your skills with axes, blades and bows, and prepare yourself by crafting the very best equipment – for it is only by defeating these Forsaken that you will advance in your progress and prove yourself to the Allfather.
Raise Viking longhouses and build bases that offer reprieve from the dangers ahead. Whether you build a small shelter, an entire village or a mountain-side fortress, defence and structural integrity are important, as is decorating it for maximum comfort!
As you discover new materials, you will learn new recipes for crafting, building and cooking – all that a Viking might need! The food system is rewarding rather than punishing, granting you boons and benefits depending on what you eat, and is directly tied to the combat system, where your health and stamina might be just the thing that makes a difference between life and death.
Community-translated languages
In addition to the officially supported languages, Valheim has several community-translated languages. As the name would suggest, these are all translated by fans and members of the community, and the process is frequently ongoing. Thus, we cannot guarantee the quality or completeness of any specific translation.
Storyline
Slain in battle, a Viking warrior is carried to Valheim, the mysterious tenth world of Norse mythology. Long ago, Odin banished his ancient enemies to this realm, where they grew in strength and became a threat once again.
Tasked with proving their worth to the Allfather, the warrior must bring order to Valheim by hunting down the Forsaken - powerful beings that rule over the world's hostile lands. The journey begins in the peaceful Meadows and leads through dark forests, deadly swamps, frozen mountains, vast plains, mist-shrouded lands, the scorched Ashlands, and ultimately the frozen reaches of the Deep North.
To survive, the warrior must explore unknown lands, gather resources, build settlements, craft increasingly powerful weapons and armour, and sail across dangerous seas. With each Forsaken defeated, new paths and challenges are revealed, bringing the warrior closer to completing Odin's task and proving themselves worthy of Valhalla.
