Quick Links
Valheim is the ultimate Viking survival game, placing🧸 you in a lonely world with the towering Yggdrasil tree in sight at all times. You’ll have to explore different biomes to look for food and materials to survive and become the best Viking in this purgatory.
But before you can do any of that, you’ll ha🔯ve to select in which world you would want to start your adventure, which is done by choosing a seed. Each seed is a series of letters and numbers that create a proce𓃲durally generated world with resources, biomes, and enemies differently distributed in each one of them. Here, you can find some of the best Valheim seeds available.
Be sure to type in the seeds exactly as presented. The seed generator in Valhei🃏m is case-sensitive!
Updated July 7, 2023 by Jacqueline Zalace: We've added a few more seeds for you to explore. Now, you are bound to find a Valheim seed that works with your play style.
Starting Small
- Seed: htsE7kJL5K
Sometimes all you need is your own personal island isolated from everything to really think things through and have a slow pace experience. Not only that but Valheim's biomes are filled with aggressive creatures that can show up at your base at any moment and destroy everything you've built.
It doesn't matter the reason behind it; if you want a piece of land just for you, this seed is what you've been looking for. You'll spawn on a relatively small island in the middle of the sea. The seed is quite challenging, as you will need to traverse over the water every time you venture inland, but it makes for a unique playthrough.
Perfect For Speedrunners
- Seed: HHcLC5acQt
This seed is the perfect one for all of Valheim’s speedrunnersꩵ out there. In this ღworld seed, you will spawn in a starter island with four runes, a nearby trader, and all bosses close by.
Every biome is q﷽uiteཧ close, with only a small river separating you from the later bosses of the game.
Little Sailing Needed
- Seed: 0V5BZHkqY4
It doesn’t matter how good you think you are in this game; eventually, you’ll have to learn how to build a ship in order to sail and discover other biomes. Sailing has a learning curve; you’ll need first to find the ingredients to make a v♒essel, then learn the differences between the three types of boats available, and even know how to use the wind to🐭 your advantage.
If all of these weren’t enough, once you’re in the water, you’ll have to look out for the terrifying serpents that lurk in tꦡhe ocean♏. It’s understandable that some Valheim players want to enjoy the game without having to be bothered by sailing. If you are one of them, good news! This seed is perfect for those who would rather avoid water.
Difficulty In The Black Forest
- Seed: lduTRpBHca
Easy seeds are great for new players, but what about those looking for a challe꧒nge? This seed places you on a small island with not much present. In terms of biomes, you will only be able to find Meadows and the Black Forest.
This seed requires you to sail and explore, especially after you defeat the boss from both of these biom❀es. Since the island is relatively small, you may also need to take shelt🅺er from attacking trolls!
Finding A Nearby Maypole
- Seed: maypoleplz
In a game that focuses on crafting and surviving, all the help you can get is well received. So to help out their newbie players, Valheim’s developers added a rare structure ♋to the game called Maypole. The catch? This type of furniture will only be available in some Valheim world seeds and can’t be crafted by players.
Using the seed maypoleplz, you’ll spawn in ꦓa world that has Maypole to the west. This means that if you build a base around this structure, your character gets an additional comfort point when resting in the area.
Iron Ore Central
- Seed: t9n3WG6dFk
Iron is one of the best resources in the game, but it isꦅ not that easy to come by; there’s a lot you’ll need to do before it becomes accessible, and it’s only available in the Swamp biome. However, once you’ve unlocked scrap iron, you can drop it in the smelter to get Iron and start crafting top tiers weapons and armor (which you’ll need for the later game’s stages).
If you’re super into Iron farming, this🧜 seed has a massive Swamp biome filled with Sunken Cr𓃲ypts you can explore and Muddy Scrap Piles ready to be mined. But before you equip your pickaxe and get to work, make sure you have the Wishbone equipped as it will make the Muddy Scrap Piles way easier to find.
Close To Haldor
- Seed: 42069lolxd
While this seed’s name is unfortunate, rest assured that it is legit, and it works as intended. This seed creates a world where Ha꧃ldor, Valheim’s merchant, is super close to the spawn point. All you have to do is head East from your spawn point, follow the South coast, and then cross the water all the way till you get to the Black Forest biome.
Once you find Haldor, you can use coins to purchase things like the Yule🐈 hat, the Dverger circlet, a Fishing Rod and much more. You can also sell him thing𝕴s like amber, rubies, amber pearls, and silver necklace in exchange for, you guessed it, coins. Also, consider dropping a portal nearby Haldor’s location so it’ll be easier to come by and revisit him.
Sticking To One Biome
- Seed: CdjvRssbHZ
Viking life is all about conquering new territories and fighting in epic battles🍷. However, there’s no shame in wanting to keep things safe and slow, especially if it’s the first time you play this game.
If you are a new player, you might want to use this s✨eed, as it will spawn your character on an island that only has the Meadows biome, which is the safest of them all. This way, you can take your time building your base in this area bef𒈔ore considering going on to the next biome.
Travel Less
- Seed: IX7JpLYpLd
One of the main features that pull players to play Valheim is the fact that once you land, you have this vast world filled with treats and secrets ready for you to explore. However, some want to experience wh꧃at this game has to offer🐼 without having to commit to extensive hours of traveling just to get from one biome to another.
Luckily, Valheim seeds like IX7JpLYpLd have a nice archipelago where all the bosses are on the same mass of land and near each other; this cuts on traveling ti𒉰me and makes things a little easier for you.
Close & Convenient Islands
- Seed: NCs7E07Xjt
Once again, we have another seed aimed at easing your playin🧸g experience. In this seed, you will do virtually no sailing, with all but three bosses being w𒀰ithin walking distance.
Additionally, there is a maypole fairly close to spawn, and Haldor is nearby 🧸if you need ဣto do some trading.
One Giant Continent
- Seed: lE0bxYKtaR
One final sail-free seed that you can explore essentially has one giant continent. Rather than close-together islands, ⛄there is no reason to even build a boat in this seed💟.
Of coꦬurse, there are other i𓆏slands that exist, but all that you need can be found on the large center continent.
Stranded On An Island
- Seed: QhsT2KVdEb
Looking for a hard time? This seed will deliver you justജ that. Right from the start, you will be on a tiny island; the challenge comes in leaving this island. Dဣo you swim away immediately and risk drowning?
On this island, there is just enough o get you started, but the rest is up to you. Thankfully, the rest of the map is average, with only the beginning posing a ch♊allenge.
The Beekeeper's Dream
- Seed: Gremlin
Lastly, we have the Gremlin seed. This seed may sound suspicious, but it's quite innocent. In this world, the starting continent that you spawn on will have over 20 beehives for you to find. These beehives can be destroyed in hopes of obtaining the Queen Bee, which is used in making your own beehives to collect honey.
In addition to plentiful beehives, Haldor will also appear on the starting continent, so you won't have to travel too far to sell and buy goods.
