Valheim Steam

Valheim Sells Over 5 Million Copies in One Month

Valheim is doing incredibly well on Steam. The breakout early access, nordic-themed survival game has sold more than 5 million copies since it launched back on 2 February 2021. It has taken the game just one month to reach that milestone. Developer Iron Gate Studio is also rolling on the cash at the moment as the game’s revenue is sitting at over $100 million alone.

The high sales of Valheim is also quite an achievement, especially given that a team of just five people developed the game. Valheim has now become one of the top five most played games on Steam in its short time on the market. Sitting currently at number 4, the game has reached more than 500,000 concurrent players at one point. A tough achievement for a game of this type.

Valheim follows a group of players who get dropped into a procedurally-generated island and tasked to survive while building up resources, crafting tools and developing settlements. It is a PvE co-op survival game with a streamline progression loop instead of the traditional challenging open-world approach seen in games like ARK. Users can pick it up on Steam for R130 (dirt cheap)
