Survival game Valheim has broken a𝓰nother concurrent user record. 

Just last week, we reported that although Valheim only launched on Steam in early access on February 2, it had already 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:sailed past one million players and hit a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:concurrent peak of 361,281 players.

, making it the third most played game on Steam only after CS:GO and Dota 2.&nb✅sp;

It's even made it into the top nine bigℱgest games ever thanks to its present concurrent record of more than 423,000 simultaneous players. As we acknowledged last week, while it has a long way to go before PUBG's staggering peak of 3,236,027 players looks to be in jeopardy, it's an astonishing achievement for an early access ga♕me nonetheless, not least because it took PUBG months to reach those heights, not days like Valheim.

In related news, the Valheim DLC roadmap recently had a significant update. In an interview earlier this 🔯week, developer Iron Gate shared some more information about the specifics of planned title updates and gave us insight into an🌞 updated roadmap for the early-access title.

Hearth and Home, the first planned update, wi💦ll add more when creating your own home. Henrik Tornqvist, co-founder of Iron Gate said: "As the name suggests, this will focus on the house building aspect o𒊎f the game, with more building pieces and stuff to do in and around the house”.

Tornqvist added the update will “probably” be focused on food preparation asp𝄹ects of the game, like adding more recipes, but there will also be some things to build inside your shiny new Viking home, too.

If you are playing Valheim, don't forget to back up your progress. A "world-destroyer" bug is resetting characters and worlds and developer Iron Gate hasn't yet been able to squish it.&nbs𝓀p;
