looking closer at some of the notes.

These are pretty big things not highlighted in that trailer well.
For the first time ever, players can freely travel between the Exiled Lands and the Isle of Siptah.

he update also introduces multiple characters per account


enhanced endowment sliders.
craft and build from storage
Conan Exiles Enhanced launches May 5th, 2026 as a free upgrade for all owners of the Steam version of the game.


Merged Worlds: Exiled Lands & Isle of Siptah - Explore both regions with the same character, teleporting between maps with no restart required. If you’re hosting a server, both maps can exist on the same server at the same time. Access to the Isle of Siptah still requires ownership of the Isle of Siptah DLC.

Multiple Characters Support: Maintain and switch between multiple single-player characters per account.

Revamped User Interface: Cleaner menus and improved navigation.

Enhanced Crafting and Building: Crafting takes ingredients from nearby storage and follower inventories.

Day one Modding Support: Several popular mods ready at launch, with a refreshed Mod Dev Kit.

Save transfer support: Carry over your progress from the Exiled Lands, including characters, bases, and loot, or start fresh in a revitalized world.




How will I be able to access the update?

If you already own Conan Exiles on Steam, it will be updated to Conan Exiles Enhanced on May 5th. The UE4 version will remain available to those who want to play it. Players will be able to find it by locating Conan Exiles Enhanced in their Steam libraries, opening the Properties, and selecting "Conan Exiles Legacy" in the "Game Versions & Betas" tab.

A lot of that stuff are things they had or added to the Dune game, so it seems clear they are using some of the lessons/tech they developed for that and applying it to Conan now

I gave it a try. and really, I feel like im taking crazy pills. and it looks worse then before.

new food/weight/etc icons also suck. old ones were color coded and easily read at a glance. new ones are just this lame as white circle, that all look the same.
quest menu, and action tooltips are a bit more intrusive.

new theme music is balls.

I uninstalled, and went to the same spot to take a screenshot.

And taking some others, and then Im going to reinstall update to compare.

I feel like the old grass was way more convincing. new plants and trees really stand out. they don't fit into the environments the same.

Cloth seems to look betteer in the old.

Old version has way more "global" lighting. inside and everything is still bright and visible. few cast shadows. you'll see in the update, suddenly inside is dark as shit, heavy cast shadows everywhere.

Shit never played this before. It's pretty fun but how do you get to use magic?
also, just for the record. the magic is mostly total shit.


Ice bridge seems like it could be neat. but, there is basically never a place where its actually all that useful.
light spell, sometimes lights dark areas. most often just puts a glowing smoke trail in front of the camera so you can't see shit.

want to stand still for 10seconds to cast a weak aoe damage spell?
cast a spell to see resources which are clearly visible to the naked eye?

Necromancy/demo pets might be ok. but pale compared to a regular companion anyway as well.


self rez/recall for your body/loot is probably the best sorcery feature.

I blew 9 hours getting the devkit but I couldn't get it working in linux. I've got to figure out how to cram the 165 gig kit on a 256 gig windows drive. Pain in the ass.
