Valheim 0.207.20

Patch 0.207.20 adds the Frost Caves, a new dungeon home to new enemies, materials, armour, a weapon and build pieces. It also brings full controller support, Steam Deck optimisation and a pause function in singleplayer. The update forces a fresh location generation of your worlds, so the first load takes slightly longer and some boss locations may move slightly.
