Valheim Announces New Release: Frost Foundry Expands Survival Horizons

Valheim has launched its newest expansion, adding a fresh layer of cold‑weather crafting and new challenges for solo players and groups alike.

Release Date: January 28, 2026

The Viking‑inspired survival experience now features the Frost Foundry, a brand‑new workshop addition that lets players forge items in a colder environment. This new element deepens the game’s exploration mechanics, encouraging teams of 1‑10 to brave harsher climates and expand their tactical options.

With the Frost Foundry, you can now:

• Craft high‑quality gear using new cold‑resistant materials.
• Experiment with advanced smelting processes that unlock unique weapon and armor variants.
• Build fortified outposts that withstand the biting winds of Valheim’s new biome.
