“Bubble, bubble, toil and trouble, this test build is not indicative of a final product.” We’re admittedly taking some artistic liberties with the classic Shakespeare quote, but considering that Valheim’s upcoming new Bog Witch update is now available on the public test server, we think it seemed appropriate.
The test branch of the already early access survivalbox introduces the keynote features of the update, including the titular new vendor, the feast mechanic that lets players scarf down huge meals for longer food buffs, the newly-added cooking and farming skills, and a whole bunch of fresh new craftables to try out. There’s also the expected additions of related new tools, skills, and materials, alongside new build items, new emotes, and the addition of an event involving ghosts.
Those who are looking to test the new patch can find instructions here, or the curious can check out a new trailer for the update below.
