Conan Exiles - Jellyfoosh
Greetings Exiles,

Have you ever wished you could just build to the horizon and not worry about bashing rocks and chopping trees? That’s what Creative Mode is for. In Age of Sorcery, we’re making building as easy as possible, and today we’d like to talk about this new mode, explaining exactly how you can access it, and what you can do in it.



How and where to access Creative Mode

Conan Exiles is many things, including a sandbox. Creative Mode pushes this aspect to its fullest, letting you build without costs or restrictions. To access it, you simply open the menu and hit “Activate Creative Mode”, and boom.

Raise your city into the sky.

Of course, this mode will only be accessible on servers that allow it. On a private server for example, you can activate it whenever you want. By default, you’ll need to have administrator permission too, but you can make it available to anyone on the server through an option. We’ve also added an option to remove the stability loss multiplier, and the ability to build anywhere. So how does it work?

I’ve activated it, what happens now?

Once you’re in creative mode, you’ll automatically equip the new construction hammer and be good to go. You can find all the details about the building revamp in a previous article. When you build in Creative Mode, there are no material costs, and you have access to every building piece and placeable in the base game and any DLC you own.

When you activate Creative Mode, you effectively freeze survival mechanics and your own progression. You take no damage, you don’t gain experience, and when you exit the mode, your learned recipes return to what you had before you activated it.


Not every hammer is used to break.

Double tap the jump button and take to the sky, completing your journey to the apex of builderdom. And don’t forget that you can hold the sprint button while flying too, to really zoom around. Flight controls have also been tightened up overall to ensure a pleasant flight with ConanAir.

When you’re flying, it’s considerably easier to build tall structures, along cliff edges or up in mighty trees. You not only get a great overview of what you’re building but can also reach clunky places more easily and don’t run the risk of blocking your own placements with your body in confined spaces.

It’s also much easier to create the right building patterns with your foundations when flying around in Creative Mode. Because Conan Exiles uses a mix of triangles and squares you can get stuck with constructions where no piece will fit and you end up with gaps in your beautiful castle or stronghold. If you fly and lay down foundations for your whole base first, you can avoid having to rebuild much later.


No longer bound to the earth, I am the construction worker’s final form. I do not concern myself with the petty squabbles of lesser beings. I am a builder of cities. A creator. A GOLDEN GO – wait where are you going?

Besides making you really good at building, Creative Mode may give you a god complex, but that’s a risk we’re willing to take. Combined with the building revamp, building is both faster and more fun.

Picture this: You and your friends start off by taking some time building two huge cities, then you open the server to the public to populate them. Maybe you split into two clans, and besiege each other, or simply let people explore. In creative mode, you can completely change the face of the Exiled Lands and make it yours.



There are so many possibilities, and we’re constantly amazed by the imagination and creativity we see from the community, so we’re really hyped to put this tool in your hands.

Keep your eye on our channels as we’ll be releasing more details on Age of Sorcery.

Stay Alive, Exiles

Conan Exiles - Jellyfoosh
To find enlightenment in the gasping darkness… whispers that rolled under the skin. How could mere flesh be a vessel for such power? And blood deliver it? With the right knife, he realized, reality could be sculpted. Bled. But the world was only as malleable as the mind allowed. Already they flocked to him. He would show them where to cut, to wring the darkness and drink the power. He set to work.

In the 3.0 Update, Age of Sorcery, we deliver dark magic into your hands. The team is thrilled to fulfill the promise of Sword & Sorcery that lies at the savage heart of Conan the Barbarian. This has been the dre am and vision since launch, and it’s incredibly exciting to have the opportunity to reach this huge milestone.



In this article, we will delve into the sorcery elements of the Age of Sorcery update; what it is, how you can acquire these powers, and more.

A Creeping Affair

The powers you will wield in Age of Sorcery are not the fireball-flinging, magic missile spells you find in many traditional fantasy games. The team has taken great care to balance authenticity to Robert E. Howard’s stories with satisfying gameplay. Sorcery in the Conan universe is an insidious, creeping affair, and this is also the approach in Age of Sorcery.

Should you take the path of corruption, you will choose the dominion of demons and ritual sacrifice, where power requires preparation. Raise the dead, conjure darkness and ice, and summon demons to tear apart those who oppose you.



The Journey into Darkness – The Sorcerer’s First Steps

Sorcery is not just a mechanic that we have applied on top of the game, it’s a journey woven into the world itself. Something is happening in the Exiled Lands. Sorcerers are spreading their vile influence, recruiting yet more people to preach their corruption. At the center of it all is a mysterious figure who claims to see beyond our world.

Should your curiosity and thirst for power get the better of you, take heed of the maps and mysterious writings that the sorcerers carry with them.

With the clues found on these dark missionaries, you will eventually acquire the Tome of Kurak, that lets you unlock sorceries one at a time. To do this, you must find and combine Sorcerous Spell Pages at the new Thaumaturgy Bench.



As you progress and learn new spells, you’ll require more and more pages. To speed up this process, you can now take sorcerers as thralls, forcing them to research pages for you over time. As you cast your first spell, you will realize that when you reach for corruption, it too flows into you.

Words of Power

To cast sorceries, you must equip a staff, which you can craft from the Thaumaturgy bench. Each sorcery is a spoken phrase. When casting a spell you will select your words in order through runes that appear before you. A spell from the realm of death will start differently than one from the realm of dreams, for example.

When you utter the final word, the sorcery will take effect.

The Cost of Sorcery

Performing sorcery fills you with corruption, visibly withering your body the more you do it. Some spells require a high amount of corruption to cast, but with sorcerous powers the body becomes weaker, lowering your max health and stamina.



As you become more corrupted, you can put points of corruption into your strength, vitality, and authority. For every perk milestone you reach with corruption, it will change into a special sorcery perk that synergizes with your new powers.

After the first perk, every subsequent corruption point put into that attribute will scale up your corrupted perks, making them more powerful.

There are ways to cleanse corruption, but once you’ve tasted the virulent powers, will you really let them go?

The Sorceries

Call of Nergal

With the Call of Nergal, you can summon a bat demon to lift you into the sky and carry you a great distance. You will be lifted upward and then control the direction of your glide. Your bat has an energy bar which depletes over time, which you can use to ascend higher at will.



Creeping Darkness

Draw in darkness, and then release it tenfold, plunging your surroundings into the black of night. This is no natural darkness, as the skittering sound of spiders that accompanies it attests. Enemies caught in this unnatural nightmare are terrified until attacked.



Lightning Storm

Conjure a great storm cloud that strikes your enemies in the area with lightning, while leaving you and yours unharmed.



There are many other sorceries such as an ice bridge, invisibility, and more, but we will let you discover those by yourselves.

Rituals

Rituals are a major aspect of sorcery that bring an element of crafting into the mix. Sorcery and summoning require reagents, some more sinister than others. By bringing an unfortunate captive to the sacrificial stone you can draw their blood to be used to summon various demons at the Circle of Power, another new crafting station.



By having the new ritual crafting stations at your base, you will be able to teleport to distant locations, raise the dead, summon demonic mounts and followers, and by the power of illusion, change the appearance of your gear.

There is still much left to discover in the Age of Sorcery that we’ll cover in other articles. Sorcery adds a whole new dynamism to the Exiled Lands, in both how you interact with the world, and other players, and we can’t wait to see how it leads to all kinds of unforgettable moments.

Thank you all for being here for this amazing milestone in Conan Exiles’ journey. There’s more yet to come!

Stay Alive, Exiles
Conan Exiles - Jellyfoosh
Greetings Exiles,

The Age of Sorcery will soon be upon us. This massive update to Conan Exiles brings new free gameplay features, content, overhauls, and quality of life improvements. Among these are sorcery, new followers, an attribute and building revamp, creative mode, and more! Certain building pieces and decorations will be tied to the Battle Pass and Bazaar item store. You can get an overview of the major features coming in the update in our recent announcement.

Today, we look at one of the cornerstones of Conan Exiles: Building. For this update, we decided to really make it shine. After all, it’s something that most you spend a lot of time on, so it deserved to live up to its potential.


A mountain-top city using many new upcoming building pieces.

From the outset, our main goal was to make building as effortless as possible for players using both keyboards and controllers. Let’s dive into how we’ve done this.

The New Building Window

In the Age of Sorcery, building will have a brand-new dedicated interface, separating it from crafting and item management. Rather than crafting building pieces and placing them on your shortcut bar, you simply equip your Construction Hammer and enter the building mode. There, you can access building pieces directly from the new UI. Praise Crom, for the days of building pieces clogging up the shortcut bar are soon behind us!


New Building UI window.

In the new UI, building pieces, crafting stations, and decorations are categorized into separate tabs along the top, with subcategories – like different materials or DLCs – listed in a column on the left. This makes accessing whatever you need much faster, especially for players using controllers, who we know from community feedback (and playing) felt the interface was somewhat fiddly compared to keyboard and mouse players.

Quality of Life and Controls

Construction Hammer equipped and materials collected (preferably from the bloody hands of your enemies)? You’re good to go.

To open the building window, you just need to hit F / left bumper. From there, mouse over a piece to see its required ingredients and description, then click it to exit the window and select your placement. Pieces with a green background are those for which you have the ingredients; red for those you don’t. The number in the box indicates how many you can craft without running out of materials, which are now automatically consumed when you place the piece.


A sorcery tower deep within the swamp.

Let’s look at some of the new commands that facilitate the construction of that fortress you’ve been planning. You can now right click / hit right bumper to toggle between either removing or adding building pieces.

When you want to switch building piece and you’ve already placed that piece in the world, you can simply aim at it and click the middle mouse button / press the right stick, “equipping” it to build – no need to open the menu every time.



Of course, all these commands can all be rebound to your preference. There are a number of other minor tweaks and improvements to look forward to as well, but rather than explain the minutiae here, we urge you to play it on testlive when it becomes available in the near future! The Conan Exiles Testlive Client is listed on Steam as a separate game in your library, or through the main game if you swap branches.


A host of new placeables will arrive with the update.

Mod Compatibility

Needless to say, this new structure is designed with mods in mind, and existing mods should continue to work after these changes go live. With the new UI, modders will be able to add their own sorting for placeables and building pieces by adding new gameplay tags to add new categories. Let’s just say that we are more than mod-erately excited.

Combined, all these changes make building faster and easier than ever before, including for controllers, and we can’t wait to see what you’ll all create with it. Keep your eye out for more news and blogs on Age of Sorcery.

Stay alive, Exiles

Conan Exiles - Jellyfoosh
Greetings Exiles,

Today we’re incredibly excited to announce the Age of Sorcery, the biggest free update to Conan Exiles since launch and a fundamental change to how we introduce new content to the game.

Put your feet up, grab a drink, and feast your eyes on our introduction to all the major changes coming with Age of Sorcery. Between now and the update, we’ll post several in-depth articles detailing these.


With Age of Sorcery, Conan Exiles fulfills the Sword & Sorcery promise that lies at the heart of Conan the Barbarian, and thrusts a choice into the hands of every Exile: What manner of power do you choose, and how far will you go to secure it?



Battle Pass and the Black Lotus Bazaar

On top of the free content, features, and improvements, the other major change coming is Seasons, which we’re calling Ages.

Each Age will have its own theme, free content, and Battle Passes. This is a complete rethinking of how Conan Exiles will continue to expand – with more evenly paced content drops and an easy way for any of you to support the game’s growth and receive exclusive themed cosmetics.

Challenges are a new set of rotating tasks that you can complete to advance in the Battle Pass to earn new rewards. They range from a variety of objectives that often involve events, another new kind of encounter that make the Exiled Lands and Isle of Siptah more alive and dangerous than ever.

Alongside the Battle Passes, we’re also releasing the Bazaar, an item store that makes paid DLC content easier to access and browse. With the Bazaar, we want to give each of you more granular choice in what you want to buy. Keep in mind that nothing is changing in terms of the type of things you can buy; nothing relating to player power can be found in the Bazaar. Now, on to Sorcery! Hyah!

Sorcery

It’s really happening! Sorcery will arrive in the Exiled Lands. Evil forces swell in the dark corners and deep places of the world. All it needs is a hand to grasp it.

In Age of Sorcery, you will be given the choice to sacrifice your life force in return for corrupting sorceries that take a whole range of forms. It’s an entire system that can be built upon for Ages to come.



Keep in mind that this is a dark, creeping kind of magic, requiring both preparation and a pinch of madness. You will not be slinging fireballs or magic missiles. You will, on the other hand, raise new demonic allies, conjure darkness, call down storms, and much more.

Attributes Improvements

Even if you remain a true sorcery-loathing barbarian down to your bones, you will have new powers to choose between, thanks to our attributes overhaul. With Age of Sorcery, you will be able to specialize your character by choosing between two powerful perks at every other attribute milestone.

Those who choose the dark path of sorcery can infuse their strength, vitality, and charisma with corruption. If you put in enough points to reach a perk milestone, that perk will be replaced by a special sorcery perk.



Overall, attributes are also receiving some changes in what they affect. We’ll have more on this in a future article.

Building Revamp

We’ve gone big on building, too! With Age of Sorcery, building will receive its very own dedicated interface, making it easier than ever to build, both on keyboard and controller.

Most players spend a lot of time building all manner of incredible things, and it’s a tool we feel had a lot of untapped potential, so it was high on our list for things to improve.



The only thing you’ll need on your shortcut bar is the construction hammer, as building pieces are placed immediately in the world through the building window without the need to craft them first. We can’t wait to get this tool into your hands to see what you’ll build.

Creative Mode

We’re not stopping at the building revamp! We want all of you to build the way you want. Accessible directly from the game’s main menu, the new Creative Mode grants you unprecedented freedom to build without costs or restrictions. Soar through the world and raise cities like some glorious efficient construction god.

Follower Updates

Followers will also see several changes. With the advent of sorcery, Exiles will be able to ensnare demons and undead as followers. “Isn’t that risky,” you ask? To that we answer, “Would that stop you?”

We’ve also tweaked balancing, reducing follower health overall and tied follower damage to the Charisma attribute. Oh, and did we mention the demon followers?



That’s it for now, but we have a lot more to cover before the update comes out. We’ll do that in a series of articles where we cover the major topics separately. The update is coming this year. Look out for a more accurate date down the line, and play the Testlive build when it becomes available soon.

We hope you’re as excited for the future of Conan Exiles as we are. This is a huge milestone for the game, and the first of many more.

Screenshots taken by the incredible Liderpina!
Whether it’s for practicality, role playing, or simply wanting to look badass, what you wear makes the barbarian. Styling your character and making it unique is a large part of Conan Exiles, and throughout the 4 years, we’ve seen some absolutely incredible looks. For this year’s anniversary, we want to celebrate that!


We want you to ransack your closet and dress your best in this contest! There are two main categories: modded and unmodded. You can choose which of these you’d like to enter. Your entry will be judged on the following criteria: creativity, overall cohesion, and theme. The judges will consist of the Funcom community team as well as Exile volunteers from the community.

Judgment will be on the outfit and character (clothes/hair/tattoos) alone. Pose, photo composition, or background of the entry will not be counted as we want the main focus to be on the outfit. But please make sure the whole outfit can be seen clearly for the judges!

The outfit you are submitting does not need to specifically be YOUR character, but it needs to be the outfit you have selected and put together. This is helpful if you need a model to take better pictures, for example.



All entries must be submitted by May 20, 2022 11:59 PM. We will not accept any entries after this date. Winners will be announced on May 30, 2022 1:00 PM. Entries must be submitted through this email address: contest@funcom.com. More info on how to submit below.



There will be 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners for both unmodded and unmodded categories. We also have DLC keys as prizes for honorable mentions.

Please note, as these are physical prizes Funcom will require an address for shipping purposes. Due to unfortunate circumstances out of our control, we will be unable to ship to Russia. Thank you for your understanding!

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.

Physical Category Winners

1st Place

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.



2nd Place
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.



3rd Place
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!



Digital Category Winners

1st Place
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.



2nd Place
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.


3rd Place
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!



Honorable Mentions

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!
