Survival gameValheimis set to get significantly cozier thanks to a new update that’s bringing all-new cooking and farming skills, making it feel a lot more akin to agame like Stardew Valley.

This is coming as part of ‘The Bog Witch’ update, which is also set to add a new vendor – the titular witch – to Valheim’s swamp biome. This new face will have spices and potions aplenty on offer, as well as new materials for tools and crafting recipes. Gold can also be exchanged for ingredients usable in endurance, strength, and dexterity-enhancing Meads, Tonics, and Draughts.

Adding to this further, the Mead Ketill and Food Preparation Table are the latest additions to Valheim’s working stations, alongside two new building pieces which can be used for decoration.

There’s currently no announced release date for The Bog Witch update at the time of writing, but a press release states that it’ll enter public testing “soon,” so hopefully it’ll be upon us before long.

Two Valheim players spent 1,000 hours building their own RPG inside the survival game.
