This new expansion is titled Age of Sorcery and brings some new features to players and their characters. The main draw is that you damage yourself by using Sorcery and other abilities, such as performing summoning rituals to summon demonic and undead followers, vanish from plain sight, and conjure darkness or storms at will. Using extensive amounts of Sorcery does visual changes to your character, as well as being a game mechanic, called corruption. Aside from sorcery being added to the game’s landscape, every attribute will be rebalanced and effects tweaked. In addition, players also get a choice between perks in each attribute, allowing for further set building and specialization. Sorcery, if you use too much, can corrupt you, and you’ll get a perk for your troubles if you use too much of it. Here’s the announcement trailer for Conan Exiles’ Age of Sorcery expansion:
Age of Sorcery also has a roadmap update that starts with this expansion; each Age will continue to have its own theme, free gameplay updates, and Battle Passes. Ages look to the future, in order to deliver evenly paced content drops and an easy way for any player to support the game’s growth and receive exclusive themed cosmetics. Other details added in the upcoming update include building overhauls for ease of access, and the addition of Creative Mode, a space designed to freely create the cities and spaces you want with no restrictions, and explore them with your friends. As for when this expansion releases, it’ll release in Q3 2022 (so, somewhere between July and the end of September). Conan Exiles is available now on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series, Xbox One, and PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, and Windows 10 Store (also available via PC Game Pass).
