Hit survival game Valheim is coming to Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S in the first-half of 2023, where it will join the Xbox Game Pass line-up. And on the PC front, Valheim is coming to PC Game Pass later this year - very cool news, as Valheim has been something of a phenomenon on Steam.

Here's a trailer to accompany the announcement.



For those wondering how this might affect developer Iron Gate and its current plans for the game on PC, well, it has brought on Piktiv and Fishlabs to lead development of PC Game Pass release and the 2023 Xbox port. As to allow the team to continue developing Valheim as more players are brought in.

“We’re beyond delighted to see the world of Valheim and our amazing community open up to even more people, and let our PC Vikings team up with their console shield brothers and sisters in the near future.” said Henrik Törnqvist, co-founder of Iron Gate. “None of this would be possible without the incredible teams at Piktiv and Fishlabs who are continuing to work tirelessly on the Microsoft Store and Xbox ports, enabling us to focus on the Mistlands update and our exciting journey through Early Access.”

An on that note Valheim has surpassed ten million copies sold since its Early Access launch last February, with the next major update to the game due in Q3 this year - which will focus on the "Mistlands biome".
