It won’t be an easy role to fill, but soon a Viking village will be in need of a new Jarl, aka Chieftain. Developer Laps Games has teamed up with Iceberg Interactive in order to release Land of the Vikings into Early Access next week.

In this game, players take on the role of the Jarl of a new Viking village. A wise Jarl must manage resources, survive harsh conditions and enemy raids, and guide their fellow Vikings to work together through social conflict. It is up to the players to expand their village into a thriving city - but they are not entirely on their own; the Norse gods will aid players with various rewards in return for their worship.

Land of the Vikings will launch on November 8th into Steam’s Early Access on PC. Do you have what it takes to sit at the helm of a new Viking village looking to thrive and survive?
