Step into a completely new side of Valheim — a dense, vibrant, and dangerous Jungle biome full of life, mystery, and untamed nature. BiomesJungle is a large-scale expansion mod that introduces a new biome designed to feel alive, immersive, and constantly evolving. From thick vegetation to exotic creatures and ambient wildlife, the Jungle brings a fresh survival experience unlike anything in vanilla Valheim.
This mod is currently in active BETA.
That means a lot of core systems are still NOT implemented yet.
• Armor sets
• Full weapon progression system
• Custom food system
• Dungeons and explorable structures
• Advanced loot and progression balancing
• Bosses and endgame content
These features are planned and actively being developed, but they are NOT fully present in the current version.
Please keep this in mind before installing.
Even in beta, the Jungle already offers a rich experience:
New Biome
• A fully custom Jungle biome
• Unique map color and world generation
• Dense forests and varied terrain
Vegetation & Environment
• Custom jungle trees and plants
• Thick foliage and clutter for immersion
• Custom environments (rain, clear weather)
• Custom ambient music (day & night)
Creatures
Face new threats and wildlife:
• Panther
• Jaguar
• Tiger
• Bear
• Iguana
• Tortoise
• Jungle Golem
Enemies
• Multiple Gnome types (fighters, archers, priests, warriors)
Passives
Species included:
• Macaws (blue & red)
• Toucans
The jungle is not just populated — it behaves like a living ecosystem.
Birds are not static or decorative. They feature custom behavior systems, including:
• Independent AI (not vanilla behavior)
• Active during the day
• Sleep at night
• Land and perch on surfaces
• Fly dynamically through the environment
• Custom ambient sounds
This system makes the biome feel alive and reactive, instead of just populated.
• New items like Anthurium and Vegetal Fiber
• Initial crafting and drops (temporary balancing)
Here’s what’s coming in future updates:
• Full armor sets and gear progression
• Unique jungle weapons
• Crafting and food systems
• Dungeons and ruins to explore
• Boss fights and endgame content
• Expanded loot and balancing systems
World Generation
• This mod ONLY works on new worlds
• You must create a new map for the Jungle biome to generate correctly
• Using an existing world will NOT generate the biome.
World Generation Time
Generating a new world with BiomesJungle will take longer than usual.
• Expected time: 10 to 20 minutes
This is normal due to the complexity and density of the biome.
Biome Density
The Jungle biome is highly detailed and dense:
• Around 4500 to 6000 instances
• Comparable to Meadows and Black Forest
This is just the beginning of the Jungle.
You may encounter:
That’s expected during this stage. Updates will continue as the biome evolves into a complete experience.
Help shape the Jungle by sharing:
• Bugs
• Suggestions
• Ideas
Together, we can build something truly unique.
BiomesJungle is currently in active BETA, and a large part of its future depends on new assets and development time.
