Conan Exiles News

This is a server update. So no download will be necessary.



Fixed a bug that caused an infinite loading loop in specific servers.



Stats for all spears now reflect the new spear stats from Hotfix 2.

Happy Yogtober, everyone!

It’s the spookiest month of all, and we can’t wait to see what you’ve got in store for us this year. Last Yogtober, we asked you to show us your necromancer towers and beautiful gothic cathedrals, and this year, we’re asking for your best Yogtober-themed screenshot.

So light up those witch-fire torches, bask in the full moon, and unleash your inner photographer!



We’d like to welcome you to our second Yogtober contest, brought to you once again by the #1 tentacle God, Yog. This year you’ll be focusing on your photography skills and capturing the essence of spooky vibes and atmosphere.

What do you think when you hear Yogtober? Do you think campy slasher, dark and sinister, or silly pumpkins? Your screenshot can include whatever you want: buildings, environment, Exiles, creatures, and what have you.

Judging will be based on creativity, originality, and how well they fit with the Yogtober theme. Judges will be from the community managers, community support, and a select few Exiles volunteers. We also realize that there isn’t a vanity mode for consoles at this time, so the UI will be ignored.

Note that your screenshot doesn’t have to include Yog! We just think he’s neat.

Once you submit your screenshot, share it on social media! Make sure to include the #Yogtober2023 tag too.

We will pick 10 winners!

How to Share a Screenshot on Console

We understand that the process can be easier on PC so here is some help on how to do it for console.

PS4

1. Press the Share button on your PS4 controller for at least one second.
   
2. This will open up the share menu. Here, press the triangle button to save the screenshot. If you want to discard the screenshot, press the circle button on the PlayStation 4 controller.
   
3. Once you have your screenshot(s) captured, navigate over to the Capture Gallery, and find the Conan Exiles folder. Press the Option button on the PS4 controller and select Copy to USB Storage Device.
   
4. Select the screenshots you want to transfer and copy them over.
   

Xbox

1. While playing a game double-tap the Xbox button on your controller to capture a screenshot and pressing Y to save the screenshot. Or if you’re one of the rare few with Kinect plugged into your Xbox One, you can say “Xbox, take a screenshot” to take and save a screenshot.
   
2. After saving the screenshot. Press the Xbox button to suspend the game.
   
3. Go to the Upload app on your Xbox One and choose the screenshot you want to share from Manage Captures.
   
4. Press the Menu button and choose Share.
   
5. You can upload it to OneDrive, and then email it from OneDrive. Or just download them to your computer from OneDrive, then include them in the survey.

Greetings Exiles,

As you may already know, with the coming of Chapter 2, we’ve made some changes to the Purge system and made it more challenging and exciting.

We, the community managers, decided we should play the purge together as a team and share that moment with you all. But why not make it better?

We’re going to have a Community Stream on the Funcom YouTube and Twitch channels on October 6th, at 17:00 CEST / 11:00 AM EST, with the presence of our amazing guests from the Conan Exiles community that you may know well:

Anabriella DeadWoman Walking KiahOnFire Sema JordeeKai shaiQuera Eradicati0n BlinkBlinkGames j0hnbane wak4863

Banding together, shoulder to shoulder, we’re going to embrace the challenges of the new purge and try to protect our beautiful base made by the ever-talented builder Barden and our resident loremaster Eradicati0n.
