Greetings Exiles!
The new major update is here! Let your war cries fill the air in welcome to the Age of Heroes. Glorious times are upon us!
Embark on new exciting quests with two new Companions, transform your base into a living settlement full of workers and warriors, and more!
Now, witness the consequences of taking everything from a warrior of the Aesir, and leaving them alive. This is Freya, one of the Companions who will join you.
Patch Highlights
In this first Chapter of the Age of Heroes[www.conanexiles.com], meet Liu Fei, the Khitan sorcerer, and Freya, the Aesir warrior. Embark on each of their epic questlines to gain their loyalty as a permanent Companion. These fully voiced characters will each gain perks unique to them based on your actions during their story.
The time has come, Exile. Lead these heroes through the blaze of corruption and vengeance – to glory!
Today, all of your worker thralls are transformed[www.conanexiles.com] into living, breathing people. No longer mere items in your inventory, workers will now also go about their business in your base, socializing and meeting needs like sleep, hunger, and rest. Don’t worry, their duties will still be tended to, even when away from their crafting table.
When danger is present, some succumb to panic and flee, while others will stand and protect their leader. They are the lifeblood of your settlement.
This is a major overhaul that comes with many quality-of-life improvements, new UI, knock-on effects, and other details, so make sure to check out in the patch notes below.
Along with these two major features, today’s update brings a slew of bug fixes and improvements. We are aware of a persistent issue causing some players to fall through foundations or die suddenly. We will continue to investigate this and will fix it as soon as possible. Thank you to everyone for their reports and patience while the team finds the solution.
Keep your eye on our channels for news on what we’re crafting for the next Chapter in the Age of Heroes.
Slay and survive, Exiles!
