March Update: Out Now!

Greetings, Exiles!

The new update is out now! Featuring fixes and tweaks of all scopes and size, we’re focusing on improving your overall experience in the Exiled Lands. Let’s go over some highlights of today’s update, and for the full patch notes, click here or below:





The Stygian Legion have abandoned their stronghold within the Exiled Lands, and the Dogs of the Desert have reclaimed the Ruins of al-Merayah. This means the keep is gone, and the area has been refitted back to being a Dogs of the Desert NPC camp. The Jhebbal Sag cave shrine linked to The Sacred Hunt is still intact and available.

al-Merayah was a consistent source of performance and stability concerns, so we made the decision to raze the keep and return it to being a Dogs of the Desert camp.


Stamina received adjustments, with the aim of meeting in the middle with feedback about stamina costs being too high. The cost of attacks is being halved across the board, meaning you’ll be able to perform a full combo with two-handed weapons with only 100 Stamina. Stamina Regeneration delays and the ‘Exhausted’ state return with similar values from before some of these changes:

  • StaminaRegenerationTime = 3.75
  • StaminaExhaustionTime = 3.75
  • StaminaOnConsumeRegenPause = 1.3
  • StaminaOnExhaustionRegenPause = 2.75
  • Restored the Exhausted state when you run out of stamina.




A compass has been added! The new Wayfinder feat allows you to craft a compass; as long as you have it in your inventory, a new heading indicator will appear next to your temperature gauges under your health bar.

Companions: Liu Fei’s PvP prowess is being addressed and is no longer functionally invulnerable. Freya’s woes with hogs are also bieng addressed.

Crash fixes for various situations.

Building hammer placement preview should consistently snap to buildings.

There’s a ton more in this update, and for the full list of changes, read on here:

March Update: Coming the 25th

Greetings, Exiles!

We hope you’ve all been surviving and dominating 2025. It’s been a little while, and it’s time we gave an update following our commitment from our last Producer’s Letter.

Our next update is coming on March 25 with a ton of fixes and changes, big and small. Before then, though, we wanted to preview and give notices about a few important changes:

Based on consistent feedback regarding how it impacts performance, the Stygian Legion is withdrawing from al-Merayah Keep, to be demolished and removed permanently. The Dogs of the Desert have reclaimed the area, drawn to the cave shrine linked to Jhebbal Sag that remains intact.

Stamina is getting readjusted, also based on your feedback about stamina costs being too high. We want to meet in the middle - the cost of attacks across the board is being reduced by 50%, but regen is being increased to (mostly) their old values.

We’re adding a compass! Unlock the Wayfinder knowledge to learn how to never get lost again. Once crafted, simply keep it in your inventory and you'll see a new heading indicator next to your temperature.

We’re also looking at fixes for issues with companions, living settlements, building placement, and more! Also important to note: there is not a Public Beta this time around, but we may run them again for a future release.

That’s all for now; thanks for reading and see you on March 25!

Hotfix: 30 January 2025

Greetings Exiles,

A new update is now available, focusing on addressing load times, crashes, and more! Please note that not every bug and issue are created equal, and we’re hard at work on more fixes for the future.

A new Mod Dev Kit version is also available!

Read below for the full changelist:

  • Load times for getting in-game significantly shortened.
  • Fixed various crash bugs (such as at the end of the intro cinematic, continuing a single-player session from the Main Menu, killing unassigned rescued thralls, and more).
  • Fixed various erroneous undermesh kill zones in Exiled Lands and the Isle of Siptah.
  • Unconscious enemy thralls no longer disappear when assigning one to be converted in a wheel of pain.
  • Artisan Tables will now recognize Carpenter Thrall bonuses. Fixed Artisan tables so that only smelters and tanners will work at them – in the context of Living Settlements – as these are the only NPCs that actually provide a bonus for this workstation.
  • Chairs used by thralls can now also be used by players after the thrall leaves.
  • If a player logs out while resting in a bed or sarcophagus, getting out will no longer break the player's functionality.
  • Friendly Fire multiplier no longer affects fall damage.
