About Tribes of Midgard
Tribes of Midgard is an action‑adventure survival ARPG where you start as an Einherjar with only a loincloth and must defend Midgard from towering Jötnar and ancient threats. The game blends crafting, exploration, and combat across procedurally generated worlds, letting you build a Viking village, hunt resources, and chase legendary loot.
You can play solo or join up to ten players in online co‑op, choosing from dozens of skills, eight distinct classes, and a variety of spells and shields. Continuous free updates add festive events, new recipes, and challenges that keep the end‑of‑the‑world fight fresh and rewarding.
01 / THE GUIDE
Survival Mode
In Survival Mode you explore at your own pace, gathering resources to craft weapons, shields, and building materials. The goal is to construct a Viking home and defend it against the ever‑looming Jötnar threat.
The world is procedurally generated, so each playthrough offers new terrain and resource locations. You can also fish, sail boats, and complete NPC quests while building your settlement.
- Prioritize gathering wood and stone early to establish basic defenses quickly.
- Use the shield to block incoming attacks while you craft or repair structures.

Saga Mode
Saga Mode offers a fast‑paced challenge where you must fend off the forces of Ragnarök before an endless winter arrives. The mode rewards greater feats with larger Bifröst rewards.
Eight classes are unlockable, each providing unique abilities to defend your village for as long as possible against increasingly difficult waves.
- Focus on unlocking a class that matches your preferred combat style early on.
- Keep an eye on the winter timer and prioritize fortifying key defenses.

Classes
The game features eight distinct classes that you can unlock and specialize in. Each class grants access to specific abilities drawn from Norse mythology, allowing you to tailor your combat approach.
Class selection influences the spells you can unleash from your weapons and the defensive tactics you employ against colossal enemies.
- Experiment with different classes to discover which rune combinations best suit your playstyle.
- Combine class abilities with shield blocks for balanced offense and defense.

Co‑op Tribe
You can adventure solo or form a tribe of up to ten players in online PvE co‑op. Tribes build a functional village with defenses, structures, and crafting stations together.
The game difficulty scales with the number of players, and the developers recommend playing with four or more to tackle Ragnarök effectively.
- Coordinate resource gathering to avoid duplication and speed up village construction.
- Assign roles—some players focus on combat while others manage building upgrades.
