Conan Exiles News

Greetings, Exiles!

We’re nearing the 4th Anniversary mark since the full launch of Conan Exiles, and to celebrate the date we’ll be running a double XP and harvesting event on official servers!

From May 5th to May 18th 2022, all official servers on all platforms and regions, will have 2x XP and Harvesting rates!

Thank you for being part of Conan Exiles and for joining us in the celebrations! We can’t wait to show you what’s coming next for Conan Exiles!

We’re thrilled to announce that Conan Chop Chop has arrived, bringing you the most unhinged vision of Hyboria yet!

With the wacky turned to 11, Conan Chop Chop invites you and your friends to join forces in both local and online multiplayer for this 1-4 player party roguelite game.

Charge into a crazy adventure as Conan, Valeria, Belit, or Pallantides, each with their unique upgradable skill trees, and stop the evil wizard Thoth-Amon. He may have an army of weird monsters and a great maniacal villain laugh, but you have your muscle-bound stick limbs, a good ol’ chopper, and a whole lot of rage, so get hackin’.

Let loose your most dramatic war cry as you mash that chop button, through endlessly varied magically generated maps bursting with loot. You will die and rise again, a little richer, a little wiser, a little more fueled by vengeance.

What is best in life? CHOP, CHOP!

Check out the winning entries here and comment if you’re one of them! And if not, feel free to share it here too!

Winners will be contacted by email later today.

A lovely letter from the Exile Lupus, the Cimmerian mercenary, to Zafira, the Stygian leader of clan Iseth.
Our judges loved not only the ambiance and authentic feel of this entry, but the fantastic letter written with in-game lore on a singed note.


[h3]2nd Place[/h3]
A “card” from Insein to Shupa.
We loved that this acted just like a mini sign post you can create in the game. And it looks great in a potter!
You can see more images of the sign + adorable dog HERE.



[h3]3rd Place[/h3]
A carving from TreeYou to all you Exiles out there.
This wooden card was carved using only a knife, no gas or electricity used! Amazing!





[h3]1st Place[/h3]
A lovely card from “The King of the Imps” to the Priestess of Derketo, Yakira. Created by oldcraig.
The judges absolutely loved that the card looks handmade complete with pictures held with tape. The letter is both sad yet endearing.



[h3]2nd Place[/h3]
A simple yet elegant card from Tyros the Deathbringer to Telith, daughter of the Witch Queen. At first glance it may appear to be a charming and sweet letter, but you’ll find a deeper meaning in each sentence on a second glance.


[h3]3rd Place[/h3]
A wonderful interactive card was made by “a talented Dogs of the Desert artisan using the sweetest and tastiest blueberries.” to the Beloved Lianeele.
Finding all (14) differences in the images will increase the happiness of your loved ones until the next purge!





In no particular order, these are cards that didn’t receive as many votes from the judges but still brought smiles and aww’s.

To Sigara from MilkMalk. A gorgeous drawing created in Procreate of the two fighting off beasts of the 8-legged variety.


From Abe to Abe, sporting some of that self love.


A card from toniapiromali, who kneels before King Conan but fell in love with the guardian beside him, mixalisj5. Instead of using words, their feelings were conveyed through a handwritten drawing.


This letter from Exile Prometeo to a furry Yeti touched our hearts.


This simple yet adorable card from JackalTaco to Arby won the hearts of judges as it brought them back to early school days of giving out cards to classmates.

Thank you again to everyone who participated and helped spread the love. These contests are a lot of fun for us, and hope it is for you all too. Keep an eye out in the future for more opportunities to win keys and other neat prizes we’ll have!

If there’s a contest you’d like to see happen, please don’t hesitate to let us know in the comments.
Until next time, Exiles!

The world of Conan is getting a little bigger and… flatter. Almost 3 years ago we teased – by way of an April Fools’ joke – a new adventure for Conan. We want to celebrate everything we love about Conan in a more comedic and light-hearted tone. It’s been a journey, but Conan Chop Chop is almost here.
Conan Chop Chop is a party rogue-lite for 1-4 players full of mayhem, loot, and adventure. In this outrageous take on Conan the Barbarian, you are the muscle-bound hero foolish enough to try and stop the evil wizard Thoth-Amon!

As part of the launch we’ve decided to release a free Demo as part of the Steam Next Fest.

Click here to try the Demo now!

The demo will take you through the first zone in the game, giving you a chance to sample the combat, a small part of the world and some of the basics of each character and their skill trees. We've included a few items and equipment as well, so you can get a feel for how they impact gameplay. Lastly, online co-op has been disabled for the demo but you can always use remote play together.
We hope you enjoy this very different take on Hyboria!
