If you are wondering when the Hearth and Home Valheim DLC and content update will be released, it will be released on September 16th, 2021.

Hearth and Home will feature a whole host of improvements and several new content additions to the game. The first biggest change will come in how shields work in the game.

Tower shields will now have knockback and allow players to become a strong defensive tank in the game. Bucklers will allow players to parry enemy attacks, and regular shields will now be a balanced choice for a fighter type of character.

Player health and stamina foods will also be more distinctive and allow players to further expand how they play the game. Now, if you want to focus on a high damage dealer type of character, you will need to focus on eating stamina foods.

For players who like to tank damage, you will need to focus on health foods, as one change made makes it, so your total blocking power is based on your max health.

Beyond system changes and buffs, a whole host of new items are also being added from new building pieces such as Darkwood roofs and new window hatch building items.

New food items such as onions and recipes and even new cooking stations are also being added with the Hearth and Home Valheim DLC.
