Releasing into early access on Steam recently, Valheim has proven extremely popular, with it recording over 300,000 concurrent players this past weekend. While it isn’t the full game quite yet, it’s proving to be an excellent survival RPG.
The game also features various different biomes, each being very different, and the world is procedurally generated, switching the lay out of the world for each and every player.
Since survival is the name of the game, you need to know about all the items in the game, how you craft things, and what you need to do to stay alive as long as possible.
To give you a helping hand and give you some information if you’re stuck, we’ve put this wiki guide together. It will run through the basics you’ll need during the early parts of Valheim, through how to beat the game’s menacing bosses.
