Conan Exiles News

Greetings, Exiles!

We’re unearthing Update 2.7, just in time to rattle and chill your holiday break!

Something stirs in the air and a coldness grips your bones. You sense a nefarious darkness growing within both the Exiled Lands and the Isle of Siptah. The veil between our world and the outer dark is starting to tear, and droves of undead stalk the land. Mystical pillars rise in dark rituals and the ominous chanting of sorcerers can be heard as whispers on the wind.

You can take on this new threat and fight the sorcerers and the unnatural undead they summon. Be on the lookout for rituals of dark sorcery as you explore either the Exiled Lands or the Isle of Siptah. By stopping the rituals you may earn unique rewards, such as some brand new placeables or even the Skelos Cultist Master armor set of the sorcerers, starting today and until January 10th!



With Update 2.7, we’re adding a new Point of Interest protection system. This first iteration will prevent obelisks in the Exiled Lands from being blocked, and will destroy any interfering constructions until access is guaranteed. We’re also focusing on polishing the new Nemedian building pieces and cosmetic sets, with fixes to collision boxes and visual polish to minor issues with armors and placeables. Along with that comes the hinted at upgrade to the building pickup system, where any pieces that would’ve otherwise collapsed when picking one up will now be sent to the inventory!



And, what could be the highlight for many of you, we’ve finally delivered one of your most requested changes since the game’s release: it should no longer rain indoors! Any sheltered areas will now protect from the rain and you should no longer see your fancy rugs and furniture soaked in rain. Making those roofs work for it, you know?

Along with these changes we’ve been working on other fixes and general layers of polish to the game. We hope these improvements make your adventures in the Exiled Lands and Siptah more enjoyable, so you can focus on grabbing all that new loot!

Thanks once again for your continued feedback and support, and stay safe!

IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING MODS

Limited-time in-game event: Grave Matters!



The veil between our world and the outer dark is starting to tear, and droves of undead stalk the land. Mystical pillars rise in dark rituals and the ominous chanting of sorcerers can be heard as whispers on the wind.

No more rain indoors!



You can now sing and dance in the rain, happy again, as you’ll finally be able to shelter from it in your home.
Roofs will now protect against rain! No more soaked bases! Hallelujah!

Greetings Exiles! We have just released the all-new People of the Dragon Pack.

This DLC offers content from the kingdom of Nemedia and it lets you build stunning castles, decorate them with beautiful placeables and use new armors, saddles and weapons.

Want to add some new towers to your camp, or perhaps build something completely new in the Nemedian style, then this is the DLC for you!

People of the Dragon Pack is also available as part of the Conan Exiles – Complete Edition on Steam.


Build mighty castles and towering fortresses with the People of the Dragon Pack. Enjoy its exclusive medieval style with several brand-new building pieces, such as tall spires, a new type of window and roof.

The building pieces, armors, weapons, placeables and horse saddles of this pack are from the powerful kingdom of Nemedia. In the deep forests and tall mountains just to the east of Aquilonia, unyielding Nemedian castles dominate the landscape, and now you can build your very own in the Exiled Lands!

Decorate your castle with striking vaulted ceilings, a wide selection of carpets, beautiful reliefs, a cozy fireplace, beautiful books, figurines, a stunning boar statue or the mighty banner of the dragon.

[h3]People of the Dragon Pack contains:[/h3]
• 48 new Nemedian building pieces, including new options.
- An expanded full set of building pieces with the same stats as existing tier three.
• 15 new armor pieces in three sets, such as the Nemedian infantry armor.
- Light, medium and heavy sets with an epic end-game version of each.
• 12 new Nemedian weapons including a shield.
- Same power as iron weapons with an epic end-game version of each weapon.
• 32 new placeables, such as books, a flag, bed and fireplace.
- Craft them at the new Nemedian artisan bench.
• 3 new Nemedian horse saddles.
- Equip your horse with a light, medium or heavy saddle.

All the new content in People of the Dragon Pack is exclusive to this DLC and adds a host of new visual options but does not give any in-game advantage in power. All the new items have comparable stats to existing items.


Alongside the launch of the new DLC, update 2.6 is also live:

Update 2.6 contains many bug fixes, AI improvements and allows you to pick up your own building pieces! Just placed a piece in the wrong spot? Now you can pick it back up and place it again.

Greetings, Exiles!

Here’s what we’ve been working after the release of our gigantic 2.5 update. In 2.6 we’ve focused on polishing rough edges and systems that have been reported by you, as well as laying the bases for what’s to come.



For this update, we’ve put special attention on thralls and NPC AI, trying to curb on their general lack of environmental awareness and other quirky behavior reported recently. Along with those fixes, there’s a long-requested (and modded) new QoL feature: You can now pick up building pieces you’ve placed as long as they’re at full health. A builder’s dream come true! And of course, there’s tons of other general fixes, stability and performance optimizations, #spellchekker quality passes and console-specific improvements.



With this Update we are also releasing our newest cosmetic DLC: People of the Dragon Pack! Build towering fortresses with new building pieces; decorate them with dozens of new placeables; and dress in the style of the proud and powerful Nemedian civilization in new armor and saddles. This new cosmetic DLC pack can be acquired individually, or as part of the Complete Edition (October 2021)!
You can read more about this pack in our blog.

Greetings, Exiles!

To allow anyone left behind to re-join their clan/friends, we have re-enabled character transfers.
However, the cooldown between transfers has been set to 30 days to avoid an issue with repeat transfers.

We aim to return the cooldown to normal values once the issue is fixed.

Thank you for your support and understanding.
