Valheim developer Iron Gate Studio has released a new patch for the video game that fixes a number of bugs and issues. Valheim Patch 0.208.1 might be small, but it notably updates the video game so that items are automatically stacked when reclaiming a tombstone as well as fixes a problem where trolls would sometimes not get staggered correctly.

There is, however, a much more substantial Valheim update on the horizon which will add a new biome: Mistlands. “New creatures are given life, dungeons are being planned out, and weapons are being crafted,” the developer teased at the end of March. “Designing a new biome is a large undertaking, with many pieces that need to slot together before it can become the complete experience it needs to be, and it will require a lot of iterations and testing before it’s done. The biome is quite some time away still, but we are excited for it and we believe the result will be well worth the wait!”
