Conan Exiles, the barbaric survival-MMO that aspires to one day enable players to create a » necklace of dicks » (no, really), has been available in Early Access for almost a year now. It took a big step toward full release today, however, as Funcom announced that it will leave Early Access on May 8,2018.
« Early Access and Game Preview has been an absolutely invaluable tool for us in developing Conan Exiles, » creative director Joel Bylos said. « Being able to get direct feedback from players has allowed us to focus our work on improvements, bug fixes, and new content. We still have a few months to go and are by no means done squashing bugs and making improvements. We’re working hard on new content and gameplay mechanics – including the new jungle and volcano biomes! »
The full release of the game will also see a jump in price, from the $30 it’s currently going for to $40, or ten bucks more than that on consoles. Pre-purchasing will also get you Conan’s Royal Armor, « the regal armor that Conan himself wears when he becomes King of Aquilonia. »
A physical « Day One » edition is also coming, which will include a printed map of the Exiled Lands and the Conan’s Atlantean Sword item, as is a big Collector’s Edition, which will have a six-inch-tall Conan figurine, a Dark Horse comic book, art book, and other assorted goodies. Details are up now at conanexiles.com .
