Hello Village Leaders,

We want to waive some of the mystery about what’s coming in the next Medieval Dynasty update. We are excited to see how our game develops every day, and it’s pretty tempting to share with you what we are currently working on. So here it is - a tease of what’s ahead.

Many of you have asked for the ability to build paths and roads in Medieval Dynasty. Well, as of next update, your wishes will be granted. You can plan the layout of buildings and roads according to your plan.

But this is not all that we have prepared for you. For those who are a bit bored with hunting wild animals in the forest, now there is an additional opportunity to get food - fishing. You’ll be able to catch different species of fish in various locations and craft new tools.



This update will be coming soon. It’ll first arrive on the public TEST branch, and once it is confirmed that it all works, and be added to the main game. Stay tuned and follow us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Discord for all the info that you need and want to hear.

Stay safe and until next time.
