Two images were shared via an update to Valheim’s Steam profile said to be new structures found within the upcoming Mistlands biome. Iron Gate describes the Mistlands as a location where past civilizations built both homes and strongholds. The two images offer a glimpse of that. The first image looks like a stone home of some kind. The second image appears to be an aqueduct with tall pillars holding it up in the sky. Both images feature backgrounds filled with mist, naturally.

Iron Gate also teases that there’s something more to the teaser images than meets the eye. In a post on Twitter featuring one of the Mistlands images, Iron Gate asks “Who might have lived in the Mistlands once upon a time?” It’s possible that Valheim players will get to meet these people, or perhaps what caused their demise. At the very least, Iron Gate will hopefully provide inside into what happened in the Mistlands that made it the way it is now.
The Steam post regarding the Mistlands update does mention that Iron Gate is currently working on the inhabitants of the Mistlands. It doesn’t mention what those inhabitants will be, however, outside of a rabbit that was previously teased for Easter. Iron Gate is unwilling to share any more information regarding these Mistlands denizens, though, saying instead that it wants to keep them as a surprise for “a little longer.”
While no overt information is provided, Iron Gate does provide a clue for Valheim players to ponder. Iron Gate says that the inhabitants of the Mistlands are something that many players “have been curious about.” Given the stonework of the structures shown in Valheims’ new pictures, some players speculate Iron Gate could be talking about dwarves.
This is the way that Iron Gate likes to tease its upcoming Valheim updates, however. It wants players to discover new content by playing Valheim, rather than through screenshots and trailers. It makes the world of Valheim that much more exciting to explore. There’s no release date for the Mistlands update yet, but Valheim players are certainly anxious for more information whenever Iron Gate decides to share it.
Valheim is available now on PC.
