Gorgeous Valheim style survival game Aska adds lakes and outposts in new update

There's something so alluring about Norse mythology. Perhaps it's the influence that TV shows like Vikings or movies such as Thor have had on popular culture, or it's the idea of seemingly limitless freedom that ends in a good ol' drinking session. Either way, games like Valheim and God of War are, in my opinion, special because of their setting and storylines versus their gameplay. Hoping to etch its name into videogame history is Aska, a survival game akin to Iron Gate's magnum opus. Having launched in early access in June 2024, it's performing pretty well on Steam, and its new Lakes and Outposts update presents the perfect opportunity to jump in.
