How to join a Valheim server

To join a Valheim server, you can use two main methods. The first one is to search for a server directly in the list of available servers in the game, which allows you to quickly and easily join the selected world. Alternatively, you can also use the Steam search engine, where by entering the server’s IP address, you will be able to easily join a Valheim game session. Follow the guide below to learn how to do this.
