Word From the Devs: Through the Roof

Greetings vikings!

We’ve truly hit the colder part of the year now, which gives us plenty of inspiration for the Deep North landscape. And just as we continue to work on the biome, Hervor Bloodtooth is continuing her journey:

Watch on YouTube

Many of you have speculated for a long time, and as we now take a closer look at some of the abandoned structures in the Deep North, we want to properly confirm that the update will add the possibility to build steeper roofs! The 67° roof pieces will be 4 meters high, and available for both the thatch as well the darkwood roof styles. We’re really looking forward to seeing all the new and creative ways you will use these build pieces!

We also want to offer you a bit of a mystery this month! It’s something to do with the crafting process in the Deep North, can you guess what these things will be used for?

As we’re nearing the holiday season for many, we also want to make sure to give you some tips for Valheim themed gifts! In the Grimfrost merch store, we currently have a combo deal where you can get two plushies for the price of one. It’s only valid throughout Black Week though!

We have also teamed up with the talented folks at Cantrip Candles, who have made a lovely set of Valheim themed scented candles! There’s one for the black forest, one for the ocean, and one for the campfire – and they all come with labels illustrated by Mats Minnhagen. These are also discounted at the moment, so now is a great time to grab them if you want them!

Build of the Month

We want to take one last look at the spooky season before we make way for winter, so this month we have chosen to highlight this richly decorated hall by Captain Crumbs! Well done!

If you want your creation to be featured in this section, use the hashtag #ValheimBotM on social media. Please also send us a DM or email with a link to your post, to make sure that we see it. Now you can also submit builds on Discord, by posting in the build-of-the-month forum channel! No DM is necessary if you post there, as that’s our own forum.

Stay warm!
