Valheim: Patch 1.0.21

A long list of tweaks and bug fixes incoming today! It touches on a little bit of everything, and we hope this patch will serve to give you all a smoother experience adventuring in Valheim.

Due to some internal restrictions, the patch will require a few days to get uploaded to all platforms. Despite this, however, crossplay will still remain functional, so you can keep playing with your friends regardless of what platform you’re on.
