As the world's foremost online game in all things Viking, Valheim is steadily becoming one of the most popular crafting games on the planet. Surrounding the Norse legend, the game has shot to fame in a matter of months with players utilizing the game's building feature to create some interesting things, such as the person who created a three-story tropical house in the mountain biome. Now it looks as though another fan has perhaps done one better.
Posting to Reddit recently, user _-GH05T- uploaded a photo they'd taken from Valheim, which shows an impressive castle that they've likely spent a long time building. However, it's no ordinary castle. It's the Fairfax Castle from Lionhead Studio's classic fantasy RPG game Fable 2.
The original poster indicated that the image shows the exterior of the castle, with plans to move onto the interior next. Just this one image alone shows the time and talent that has gone into creating a memorable artifact to commemorate one of the most beloved Western RPGs of all time. The user even uploaded a video to YouTube which shows a 360-view of the completed project. He adds that he built the castle on the highest mountain in the seed he plays on, in the north part of the biome.
Despite only coming out in February 2021, Valheim has been something of an overnight success. In March, the game passed another milestone by selling more than five million copies on Steam. It is a juggernaut that is hard to match and may have the potential to become the Viking equivalent of Minecraft.
Valheim is out now PC.
