Patch notes breakdowns and post-1.0 hotfix tracking, with a note on which guide pages each patch affects.
What the Bog Witch update added to Valheim: a friendly trader in the Swamp, the new feast mechanic, three new skills (Cooking, Farming, Crafting), and a large batch of materials, potions and build pieces.
What the Call to Arms update added to Valheim: the new Trinket and adrenaline system, the Perfect Dodge roll, wooden sparring weapons, the Bear and Vile creatures, combat practice build pieces, and a full rework of the Forsaken Powers.
How the Valheim community reacted to the 1.0 launch: the Deep North hot takes, the most complained-about early issues, and where to track the live numbers yourself.
BepInEx still runs Valheim modding in 2026, but 1.0 changed the rules: crossplay and mods are mutually exclusive, Valheim Plus has been superseded, and the community moved to individual standalone plugins.
Valheim left early access on 9 September 2026 with the 1.0 release: the Deep North biome, crossplay across PC/Xbox/PS5/Switch 2, and the game’s first full achievement system.
Everything that changed in the first week after Valheim 1.0 launched: the 1.0.10 and 1.0.12 hotfixes, the temporary Switch 2 crossplay issue, and what it means for servers and players.
