Released 4 years ago already, in 2018, Conan Exiles continues its expansion and will welcome in a few months its biggest update, 3.0. Entitled “Age Of Sorcery”, this massive update will mainly introduce the notion of sword and sorcery, a theme that the developers of Funcom have always wanted to integrate for the universe of Howard. Nevertheless, Sorcery will look less fancy than other games of the same genre, but more sinister and evil, even if it seems less visually impressive. It will nevertheless be possible to create magic spells using different words of power, which will involve in return sacrificing part of the vital forces to cast deadly spells and summon diabolical creatures. But sorcery also involves rituals, which will be translated into the game by creation ceremonies. You will indeed have to use your craft workshop to create and practice magic rites. It will therefore be necessary to shed the blood of a sacrificed person to have access to his workshop and obtain the object that has been crafted. Among the rituals made available, there is necromancy which allows to call upon undead and even zombie mounts. There is also the possibility of creating teleportation zones to travel more easily.
Funcom took the opportunity to review its system of attributes and improvements, as well as the interface, which has been redesigned to be easier to navigate, both for keyboard and controller users. Of course, who says update, says new cosmetics and Age of Sorcery will allow you to obtain new cosmetic bonuses, in order to enrich the game and its content. Update 3.0 “Age of Sorcery” is expected in the third quarter of 2022 and Funcom will continue to talk about it of course.
