Building an awesome base is one of the simple joys of Valheim. You don’t have a lot of options when it comes to materials, but there’s so much more you can do to make an impressive Viking homestead. The building features in Valheim are much more in-depth than most other open-world survival games, giving you tools to make some incredible little outposts, bridges, castles and more.
