Your Path To Valhalla



Sæl, Viking! Sæl, Valkyrie!

Are you ready to brave the storm-tossed and raging seas? Do the gods smile on you? Do you have the courage, strength and wisdom to become a Jarl?

Then board your dragon boat and set out on an epic journey that will take you to the starting point of the raid that the skalds will sing about for hundreds of winters in the longhouses. Become part of Vikings Dynasty!

Here in the far north, life is hard, rough and relentless. Here life means fighting for survival every day! Whether on a boat in the middle of the stormy sea, surrounded by your loyal, battle-hardened warriors and Valkyries, or on barren earth, where Uller and Skadi make life difficult for you and your clan – you must prove that you are a true leader.

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

Discover an open world full of secrets, dangers and breathtaking beauty!

Build your own kingdom. Use tools and raw materials to build a mighty village and turn it into a fortress of the north.

Conquer the wilderness. Hunt wild animals, explore unknown islands and face the terrors of nature.

Rule over land and sea. Build ships, master fishing and guide your tribe through treacherous waters.

But that's just the beginning. Gain followers, forge alliances and lay the foundation for a dynasty that will outlast the legends. Master the art of agriculture, perfect your shipbuilding skills and lead your settlement to prosperity and power. Rise to become the unchallenged Jarl and reach for the stars – who knows, perhaps Valhalla is written in your destiny.

Will you go down in the annals of history, or will you be blown away in the cold winds of the north? The gods are watching. Now is your time!
