Valheim finally delivered it’s long-promised Hearth & Home update back in September, and thankfully it seems developer Iron Gate Studio are moving on to new things with a bit more urgency.

Additionally, Iron Gate have released some intriguing teaser images for upcoming content, including the big Mistlands update. First up, here are the notes for Valheim update 0.205.5…

　　But that’s not all Iron Gate are teasing! In addition to the Mistlands, they have also provided several looks at new cave systems and ruins they plan to add to the Mountain biome, which “may or may not have some lupine inhabitants.” Could these caves be part of the promised “Cult of the Wolf” update? We’ll have to wait and find out.
