Iron Gate aims to complete the next biome “by the end of the year.”
Valheim just can’t stop hitting huge milestones because after reaching a peak of 500,000 Steam users, it has now sold over 4 million copies. And it’s only been out three weeks.

Created by a team of five at Iron Gate Studio, the early access survival game hit 4m earlier today – with the development team once again thanking the player base for their support.
“I don’t think I really had time to think about it,” said Richard Svensson, CEO of Iron Gate. “I know players really like the game, but at the same time I think I can make something even better in the future. I look forward to adding more content to the game, especially by working on the remaining biomes.
“Our current roadmap doesn’t reach the next biome until the end of the year and we hope it will be ready by the end of the year, but it could very well take longer depending on how smooth development will go. never finished well. “
The game reached 2 million copies sold on February 15, then 3 million on February 19. On February 22, it reached 500,000 simultaneous players and dropped there with PUBG, CS: GO, Dota 2 and Cyberpunk 2077 being one of only five games to ever peak at 500,000 players on Steam.
As mentioned by Svensson, Iron Gate has a roadmap detailing future updates to Valheim, although no dates have yet been set for when those features will be implemented (including that new Mistlands biome). In the meantime, players keep themselves entertained by launching themselves across the map with self-built catapults – or simply having time to renovate cabins.
