We were aware some players experienced server issues just after our launch. We apologize for this, and moved quick as we could to resolve the issue by upgrading our servers. Things are looking stable and there should be no more issues! Thank you so much for your patience, really, everyone at the team much appreciates your understanding.




Gearbox and Norsfell have teamed up with One Tree Planted to restore forests around the world! 🌲 For every Giant you slay in-game, Gearbox will plant a tree in your glory. Make Yggdrasil proud! (And don't forget to use #TreesOfMidgard on socials).

Lastly, be sure to join our Discord to find a tribe to play with, and come hang out on our Twitter for all the latest news.

The entire Norsfell team is beyond thrilled that today has finally come. We'll be keeping an eye out for your feedback as always! Thank you for all the support these past few years, we could not have done this without our awesome community.

Have you decided on which Class you'll play yet? Reminder that we revealed more information on them in the Game Rant article here!
Be sure to also check out the Wolf Saga Trailer if you haven't yet, which talks more about Classes, Runes and Saga Quests (and maybe even shows you a little wolf friend you can unlock).

So... what will you plan to do first? Take an adventure off to the beaches to find the Unsunken Warchief? Go boar-hunting with bows and arrows? Try to evade a lightning-spitting Linnorm? Or... head straight to Giant-seeking?

See you soon,
The Norsfell Team
