Valheim, the survival and sandbox game by indie studio Iron Gate AB, received an important update today. The patch is mostly focused on bug fixing so that the gaming experience is better. Some QoL changes have been made as well.
The bug where trolls won’t be staggered has been addressed. From now on, they should be staggered as expected. Items will be automatically stacked if the player picks up their tombstone. The patch fixes the bug where an item will be bought twice if a gamepad is used. Keyboard and gamepad hints for the inventory screen have been added as well. When upgrading, the selected item will now be remembered by the Upgrade function.
