Game Migrated to Another Steam Page News

Conqueror’s Blade first launched in 2019 with in-game dialogue performed and recorded by a wonderfully talented cast and crew based in Canada. As part of our on-going efforts to make the game the best it can be, the localisation team at MY.GAMES has been hard at work building upon this foundation with even more voices. We’re happy to reveal that our work is now complete and available in the latest version of Conqueror’s Blade!

Every unit is bursting with even more character and diversity, bringing a refreshing new dimension to gameplay as you venture through cities and townships, prepare for battle, and wage war on the fields and fortresses of this world. We’ve prepared a video to showcase the newly available English voiceovers, and to give you a peek behind the scenes at our processes.

With every new Season, we introduce units from all across the world of Conqueror’s Blade, from Sicania to the Northern Steppes. With this in mind, we wanted new seasonal units to have unique responses in keeping with their homeland, rather than several units sharing a stock response. Every unit now has their own ‘portrait’ line that essentially acts as their motto, giving even familiar units more character.

It was important that we find the right voices to match our new scripts, so from a longlist provided by the wonderful team at SIDE Studios in London (who also recorded our new voiceovers, directed by Damien Goodwin), we listened to casting samples and selected some fantastic actors who have lent their considerable talents to other big films, television series, and videogames in recent years.

Watch the Behind the Scenes video to see our star-studded cast at work in the studio, including Arthur Lee (Treadstone), Alec Newman (Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate), and Jeremy Ang Jones (Total War: Three Kingdoms). There’s also a Q&A that may interest any aspiring voice actors out there!

Would you like to know more about the localisation for Conqueror’s Blade? Let us know on Discord or through our social media channels, including Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram! If we use your idea for a future article, we’ll even send you a reward as a token of our thanks.

DaddyDeath is back with a new player tournament! Dubbed The Return of the Horde, it’s a 5v5, single-elimination Field Battle contest due to be streamed live on September 25. Interested parties can check out the rules and signup right now (until September 18) via the Death Games Tournament Discord channel.

Characteristic of one of DaddyDeath’s events, there are some interesting limitations to ensure the action is raw and visceral. Teams are limited to one of each melee weapon type, for example, and only Rustic and (some) Feudal Era units can be fielded. There’ll be no hiding behind 5-star units in this tournament!
 


IMPORTANT: Due to the way the Tournament Server is administered, players must have a MY.GAMES account to be considered as a contestant. Steam players can create one here.

Please be aware that from 8:00 CEST on September 10 (11:00pm PDT 9/9), the Conqueror’s Blade servers will be inaccessible. The downtime is expected to last for 4 hours.

Patch Notes will be updated during downtime. Meanwhile, stay tuned to our Discord channel in case of any immediate server updates.

 

As we approach the decisive stage of Season IV, with houses and alliances preparing to assault the Conqueror’s City once more, it’s an apt time to reflect on Season III’s summer campaign. Now that the war scholars have completed their battlefield investigations, we are at last able to celebrate those that succeeded in claiming the ultimate prize, but who did so by taking the honourable path to victory!
 

EU East: Government in Exiles

On what is now the Steppes server (RU), it was KingdomExiles that won Season II and TROYNICHOK that eventually took the city to secure the Season III title. On the roster of both alliances, however, was a familiar executor - Exiles - a house known for being at the centre of many famous victories. 

Exiles’ plan for the season was a simple one: assemble the finest heroes and take the Conqueror’s City as soon as possible in order to have the advantage of defending it. By all accounts, the plan was executed with consummate precision, with TROYNICHOK controlling not only the city but its gate fiefs as well!    

Exiles is also known for enduring long periods of inactivity after its successes, which it appears to be in the midst of as we await the climax of season IV. As late as it is, however, we won’t yet be discounting Exiles from attempting a third consecutive seasonal victory.


 

North America: Kingdom of Heaven

There were effectively two major alliances battling for dominance on the NA server: the winners of Season II, Defiance, who became increasingly embattled with the soon-to-be champions of Season III, HeavenlyKingdom. “We were evenly matched in most respects,” said the winning liege. “We fought in every fief near the Conqueror's City in order to gain an advantage and the war became very brutal when both sides ignored the cost. They [Defiance] brought us some very challenging fights within the Conqueror's City as well.” 

Preparations for Season III were laid down long before the campaign began, with the building of a coalition designed to fulfil one goal: take the Conqueror's City and successfully hold it until the end. “That’s an achievement, but our bigger achievement was our unity. We successfully united all the people to fight for a common goal because we all had the desire to win; to take the city.”


 

EU West: Hare apparent

Of all the houses in all the severed realms of Conqueror’s Blade, Wererabbits and their Friendly allies are perhaps the closest of all to establishing a hegemony. For Season III, the plan was simple: to secure the local region quickly to be able to start crafting for the battles ahead. “If you cannot get the correct locations for siege crafting you are automatically put at a disadvantage on everything else,” said a representative. 

As for securing the Conqueror’s City, the Friendly alliance was able to swiftly take the fief from under the noses of its rivals by launching an assault just when those of other houses seemed to falter. A case of being in the right place at the right time. 

“We were happy to win the Conqueror's City again, [especially] whilst having the other top alliances team up to try and stop it happening again.” Now, we wait to see if Friendly can be the first alliance to secure three seasons in a row!


 

EU West 2: The lost season

While battles for the capital city on the Sicania (EU2) server were just as intense and bloody as elsewhere, in the end it was chaos and ruin that emerged with the crown. Victory celebrations were cancelled as Alliance forces were unceremoniously ejected from the city by the civil authorities, requiring a coalition of legionnaires to ride in and restore order. 

The city is again quiet, bracing itself for more battles and hoping for a more favourable outcome at the conclusion of Season IV: Blood of the Empire. 

Congratulations to all those that fought with integrity during Season III, especially those won the keys to the Conqueror’s City. Their achievements will be forever remembered, alongside the Conquerors of Season II.  

We love the fleeting thrills of a knockout tournament, but you can’t beat the drama of a week-in, week-out league. Here, not only player skill is tested, but stamina too. Both traits will be required by those registering to play in the Taverne League, where 16 teams will be selected to compete across eight weeks of siege competition. It's an opportunity to complete an epic journey alongside some of the most dedicated players of Conqueror's Blade, with Sovereigns and Premium time at stake for the winners.

 

Organised and hosted by La Taverne des Casus, the League’s opening matches are scheduled to commence September 24 (each played across two legs, as attackers and defenders). The competition will continue every Thursday, until the final matches take place on November 12. 

Interested team captains should gather 15 players, plus up to three substitutes, and sign up via the tournament Discord channel before September 15. The league and match rules and a full schedule will also be made available here. Players looking to join under-strength squads can also pitch their skills there. 

Good luck to the organisers, and everyone looking to take part. We look forward to profiling the winners in November, as well as (hopefully) previewing a second season!
