UPDATE: Ready to cover your Vikings in sand and pass those scorpion-bite antidotes around? Well you better be, because the first promised DLC for Valhalla Hills is here and it sees your brave warriors take a detour through the desert in their way to Valhalla. Owners of the <span class="bold">Two Horned Helmet Edition</span> get the DLC for free and anyone that was still holding back can now go for the <span class="bold">Upgrade</span>. All editions are on a 25% discount until February 19, 1:59 PM GMT. Go and grab these deals by the horns, warrior!



Thrown from the gates of Asgard.


<span class="bold">Valhalla Hills</span> a viking city builder, is available now, DRM-free on GOG.com for Windows, Mac and Linux.

The mightiest of warriors will be fallen in battle, slain by the swords and hands of their foes. The chosen revel in perennial glory, where wine flows eternal and time is naught.

Valhalla Hills is a viking-themed city builder and survival game that invokes memories of games like The Settlers, Cultures and Banished. In this world, entrance to Valhalla is only granted to those who are deemed worthy. The rest will wander the hills for eternity. But not you, you're going to prance right in there. That's going to take some preparation, but you're a true viking after all.

Even vikings need teamwork to overcome the randomly-generated challenges awaiting at the beautiful-but-harsh Valhalla Hills. Gather resources, build sturdy settlements, and guide your people through hardships and pitfalls to the promised halls of Valhalla.

You can also get the <span class="bold">Two Horned Helmet Edition</span> which features Sand of the Damned plus an upcoming DLC pack, an artbook, wallpaper, soundtrack, developer Video and 5 special in-game items!

Earn your place among warriors of legend by traversing <span class="bold">Valhalla Hills</span>, now DRM-free on GOG.com.

DyNaer: So denying one option for this game, it's quite strange.
I agree, it's unusual not to see standalone DLC on offer in this case. I do wonder at the reasons behind it.

benlz: Why it's not possible to just buy the DLC for owners of the base version? It is 4,99€ on Steam. Is it GOG's or developer's decision? Just curious.
I'd like to know this too (they're probably under NDA), which reminds me that the upgrade paths for Pillars of Eternity are still not available on GOG either.

Unfortunately it's in situations like these where I start to lose faith in GOG. DRM-Free shouldn't mean more expensive and I see no reason why the same game has to be priced differently between different stores.

I don't mind that so much as not being able to buy the DLC separately. That's just crazy. There is no reason to require me to buy a lot of expensive stuff just to get the DLC. It's not worth the cost of the upgrade package.

Well, I completly agree that it's very strange and not comprehensible why this DLC can't be bought separately like on Steam, there seems to be absolutely no reason. But on the other hand the DLC itself costs 5€ on Steam, the upgrade is 7,50€ and includes the next DLC as well (which will probably cost 5€ as well - if you buy both DLCs it's cheaper but who knows if you are interested in the next DLC too). So I think it's not completly unreasonable (we are talking about 2,50€ more for a 30€ game with the high chance you get something interesting for the additional 2,50€) but still not a good and customer-friendly solution.

I know this is a terrible necro... but like everyone else, I'm stuck with owning the base game, DRM-free... but not being able to get the DLC for it, without basically getting the entire game all over again... that's nuts. Anyone found a real solution to this?
