In this episode I am joined with the Community Manager from Norsfell and Tribes of Midgard, Kelly Hornung. We talk about their new cooperative survival game, Tribes of Midgard where you defend your village against giants and other creatures. Kelly reveals what you can expect for the future of the game including customization, release plan of the Beta, early access and full version, along with the lore of the game. We also chat about the Norse mythology aspect of the game from the Poetic and Prose Edda and how it relates to Tribes of Midgard.
