Funcom is returning to Hyboria with Conan Exile, a new open-world survival game coming to PC in Early Access this summer and to consoles at a later date.
Conan Exiles challenges players to survive, build and dominate in the brutal world of Conan the Barbarian.
“There is no better setting for an open-world survival game than the world of Conan,” said Joel Bylos, creative director at Funcom. “Hyboria is a harsh and unforgiving land where only the strongest can survive while the weak are swiftly cut down. Whether it is hunting animals for food, fighting monsters and other players, or building entire settlements, we want to make sure players feel like they are really fighting to survive and prosper in the most brutal fantasy world ever.”
In Conan Exiles you are an exile, one of thousands cast out to fend for themselves in a dangerous wasteland. You’ll need to grow crops or hunt animals for food, harvest resources to build weapons and tools, build a shelter to survive, ride across a vast world and explore alone or with other players to build entire settlements.
Combat is described as fast-paced and bloody, with bone-crushing attacks that will see heads of your enemies rolling and limbs flying.
Although primarily a multiplayer game, a single-player mode will also be offered.
