Of course, Valheim’s Mistlands update also includes some bug fixes and other gameplay tweaks. You can check out the full, unabridged patch notes here. Valheim can be played on PC. You can access the public test version of the Mistlands update by going into the betas menu on Steam, selecting “Betas” from the dropdown and entering the code “yesimadebackups”. Remember, this is still a test, so Iron Gate aren’t promising full stability. A full Mistlands release date has not been announced yet.
