Valheim Unveils First Creature in New Biome

by Aurora May 13,2025

Iron Gate Studio has unveiled a fresh chapter in their developer diary, giving Valheim enthusiasts a sneak peek into the forthcoming biome, The Deep North. One of the standout features is the introduction of the Far North's first creature: seals that are so irresistibly cute, players might find themselves hesitating to hunt them.

In the icy expanses of The Deep North, players will come across seals that vary in appearance based on their quality. Horned or spotted seals, for example, offer richer resources than their plain counterparts, prompting players to make thoughtful hunting choices.

Iron Gate has taken a unique route in teasing this update, opting for narrative-driven videos over conventional trailers. These videos follow the adventures of Hervor Blood Tooth as she explores the Far North, subtly revealing elements of the new biome, including snow-draped coastlines and mesmerizing auroras.

While an official release date for The Deep North remains under wraps, this update is anticipated to be the final biome added to Valheim. This could mark the game's transition out of early access, much to the excitement of its community.
