I might got out of context but I mean, the team is trying their best to do their stuff and I heard they doing some cross platform atm (maybe, not sure) so that can be the problem why it took so long for not so much update.

Give them some time, very very big hit for a small Group is tough.

If they are spending time on crossplay they need to get their priorities straight. +90% of people playing this game does not care about crossplay.

Trying their best shouldnt be an excuse for lack of content. The game blew up which means they got a LOT of money up front. Money gives options to hire more people to speed things up.
Being a small team with a game that blew up is NOT an excuse. If anything this should raise expectations.

If it's tunnels it has to be instanced, that's just a reality of the game engine. I hope we can move in and build there though.

i think that it will be like the dungeons in black forest or in swamp... like a reskin of the dungeon with thematic tile set for mountains with a mob in it... i don't think they built an entire mechanic in the small "upcoming" update

well, to be fair, it will finish when it finish.
I also want a quick update but we're on 2022 or something and Valheim is not the only thing we have in hand.

also, in my opinions, I thinks they don't want to push something out fast before finishing the testing, if that create more bugs, glitch ? it will give them more time to look back and fixed then the bugs will add up and then noway to fix or update anything anymore.

Still, the game that keep on updating monthly-ish is still pretty alive on my book.
and those update is not only bug fixed aswell so, we can see how genuine from Dev. team here.

Tell you what caves will be great.
I've thought to myself lots "I want more cave stuff" so I mean WOOOOOOO!

I hope it's not instanced and there will be wolf dens in there. Perhaps intricate tunnels that lead to more than just wolf dens. Treasure and enchanted artifacts would be lovely, but highly unlikely.

My biggest 'worry', is that the new updates will invite more crybabies to whine about how hard and tedious the game has become. [long sigh] Look at what H&H turned out. I was totally happy with H&H. So I'm looking forward to pretty much anything that IronGate churns out for Valheim. So long as they don't compromise their overall core concept for the game, and turn it into Hello Kitty Adventures for adults who can't spend a couple of hours to learn to survive in a survival game. Even worst, if the developers make the game into something entirely different than it started like what Picroma did to Cubeworld (RIP) from alpha to release.

Small update

im sure it will be instanced like the crypts, and sunken ones. Its essentially the mountains biomes' dungeon.

well if you gather all the evidence:
dungeons for mountain biome only in new undiscovered areas
new mob for the location (Fenrig and another wolf creature can be seen in the images)
they have said "something will be lurking in the caves"
various "new" items are in the images; floor braziers, wall hanging etc
crystals are on show as points; so possible new mining resource

they have also said its not the full cult of the wolf content.
This will be a relatively small update that adds a new creature, and some new mechanics along with maybe a few build pieces.

Oh, I didn't even think of them like dungeons. I thought they were literal holes on the side of the mountain. It makes sense how you said they are dungeons, because otherwise, players would be able to dig into them, unless they make it so they can't. I mean, it would be nice to have caves that aren't instanced too. Eg: when there is a blizzard, we can take cover and put down a campfire too.

There will be small caves like the troll cave in the mountains with one new mob inside.
