Cloudheim has officially launched on Steam, and today we’re diving into a full first-look breakdown of this brand-new Viking-inspired open world adventure. Cloudheim blends Valheim-style exploration with Zelda-inspired puzzles, fast combo-based combat, and four flexible classes that can be swapped simply by equipping new weapons.
In this early gameplay impressions video, I cover the tutorial experience, explore the massive Arcadia island, break down each of the four main classes, show the leveling and mastery system, and demonstrate how base building works in Odin Shell. Cloudheim is still early access, but the amount of content, polish, and world size already feels promising for co-op players.
If you're wondering whether Cloudheim is worth buying, how big the world is, or what the combat and puzzles look like, this video covers everything you need to know.
Thanks for watching — and stay tuned for co-op coverage with the MMG squad!
