Long time no see! We have sent out more BETA-keys, and the feedback we have received have been invaluable. Seeing how much our players enjoy Valheim so far motivates us to work even harder! Many new items have been added to the game, and exciting things are happening on the development front. Two of these exciting things are that we are working with a sound designer and a musician to elevate the experience of the game. Halloween, or Harvest fest as vikings would call it, is upon us and to celebrate it we are testing your knowledge through riddles on twitter. The first 50 people who pleases Odin by giving correct answers to all three riddles will receive one BETA-key each. Make sure to check out our twitter for the chance to prove your wits! https://twitter.com/Valheimgame [h2]Now for the actual updates for the game:[/h2] [h3]New features and content[/h3] [h3]New armor: Padded armor[/h3] [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//33695701/7fec2c4dd3bc595bdad01bab671b9c64edeaeacf.png[/img] Protect yourself from enemies in this full padded armor (try to not get distracted by how cool you look).

You will definitely hear it coming, but are you fast enough to see it before it strikes?

[h3]New material: Needle[/h3] Looted from deathsquitos and big enough to use for weapon crafting. [h3]New material: Black metal [/h3] A brutal material for brutal DIY crafts. [h3]New Weapons: Black metal atgeir, black metal axe, black metal sword and black metal knife[/h3] [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//33695701/82c58321657db80d06e007d9df096ac4c85f7110.png[/img] What better way is there to signal that you are fearless than wielding these black metal weapons as you slay your enemies. [h3]New weapon: Porcupine mace[/h3] [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//33695701/f645fd73db514473dc7d67205071f768448355ca.png[/img] This mace is made using deathsquito needles, talk about weaponizing your worst fears.

What do you think? [h3]Hugin and Munin overhaul[/h3] Of course we couldn’t neglect Odin’s companions, they’ve received updated looks as well.
