Valheim v0.213.300 patch notes

Valheim has pushed through a set of fixes for its latest version, 0.214.300. While many people love the early access game so far, there are definitely more areas to fix up and expand before it hits its full release later on.

One of the biggest fixes is focused on fixing the differences in heightmaps between PC and Xbox players. This would cause players on the different platforms to see others either floating in the sky or walking underground. Unfortunately, the fix for this has made it so that if any Xbox players made a building that goes into the ground, it will fall apart. This was a necessary thing to take on so that future problems wouldn’t arise.

Xbox players should also expect a fix coming in the next patch to address your world resetting to the first day after it reaches a certain size.
