Funcom has revealed their next title, Conan Exiles, will be released into early access this summer with full launch on PC and consoles to come after. Exiles is set to be an open world survival game where players must survive the harsh lands of Hyboria by hunting, fighting, and taking shelter. The game is played similarly to other survival titles, giving players the option to use public and private servers, alongside a single player mode.
Creative director Joel Bylos points to the setting of Conan as the perfect suitor for a survival game, noting:
“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.”
We learned back in August that Funcom had begun work on multiple smaller, more experimental titles such as The Park. Last month, the company announced that it was a preferred partner of Conan Properties, all but ensuring that there would be more titles coming in the future.
