Valheim Is Coming To Switch 2 This Year

by Marcus Stewart on Feb 05, 2026 at 08:19 AM

The hit Viking survival game Valheim is making the jump to Switch 2 this year. The game, which first entered Steam Early Access four years ago, has gradually made its way to other platforms such as Xbox and, eventually, PlayStation, and its arrival on a Nintendo console will complete the set.  

Valheim is a procedurally-generated survival game where 1 to 10 players can build villages, hunt for food, and gather materials to tame a world inspired by Norse mythology. The Switch 2 edition retains these features, though with the added benefit of portable play.

Valehim arrives on Switch 2 sometime this year, potentially on the same day as the previously announced PlayStation 5 version
