Valheim builders are already rivaling Minecrafts

Many very talented people are playing Valheim. I mean, a lot of people are playing Valheim full stop – at the time of writing, it’s the fourth most played game on Steam.

At first glance, Valheim looks a bit like the Viking Rust, and you might think that’s where the inspiration comes from. But according to Iron Gate Studios co-founder Henrik Törnqvist, it takes more influence from single-player action and adventure games and RPGs like The Legend Of Zelda and Skyrim.
