Aside from extending the game's Lunar New Year sale on Steam, Iron Gate also touched on the Mountain biome update, confirming it's putting finishing touches on it before its scheduled release of «early 2022.»
The Mountain update was announced last year and will feature new caves in the region and an underground temple. Alongside the Mountain update, Iron Gate has also been working on Mistlands--another new biome players will be able to explore that will include new enemies, a new boss, resources, and more.
«The phase of nailing down the core concept is done, and we know what kind of inhabitants we want the biome to have,» the developer explained. «This means we’re now working on a bunch of new build pieces and enemies, as well as defining more of the new mechanics we will be introducing (though we’d like to keep those secret for a while longer).»
Iron Gate also addressed the upcoming release of the Steam Deck, stating that it would like Valheim to run smoothly on the device at launch, so it's working on it at the moment.
