Valheim public-test server

UPDATE

The testing appears to be done and is now part of the regular version of the game. This is still a handy guide for any future betas though.

Here’s a cool update for your Valheim linux server if you’re up from some beta testing.

The Valheim devs announced the Mistlands update and we can all get in on the action early through a beta branch on Steam (and GamePass). You can find out more about the update here and there’s a nice trailer here.

Valheim server on Linux

Here is a step-by-step guide for setting up a Valheim server on Linux. Having done it twice now I thought it would be a good idea to capture this somewhere so that next time I don’t have to look any of this up again.

The only assumptions being made here is that your server is running Ubuntu of some semi-recent version and a basic understanding of Linux.

SteamCMD

The SteamCMD utility from Valve will help us install the gamefiles on the server. Follow the instructions on the wiki to get it up and running.
