​Conan Exiles Enhanced Community Update – September     ​

Greetings, Exiles!The past few weeks have been very busy for us as we’ve been working on the UE5.8 upgrade, new Legacy of the Giant-Kings content, new Bazaar bundles, wrapping up the Modding Contest and so much more.Patch 2.2.0 is now live, bringing Unreal Engine 5.8.2 and Iris, helping lay the groundwork for future improvements.The adventure continues on October 6, when The Legacy of the Giant-Kings: Part Two arrives, bringing new mysteries, challenges and secrets to both the Exiled Lands and the Isle of Siptah.We’ve also celebrated our first-ever Modding Contest, with the community voting for the Top 10 mods, while creators across the community continue to impress us with incredible work across the Exiles Lands.Read all about what’s been happening in the Exiles Lands in this latest Community update!Patch 2.2.0 – Engine UpgradePatch 2.2.0 is here and with it comes Unreal Engine 5.8.2, bringing the game onto the latest engine version and laying the groundwork for further improvements.This patch also has Iris enabled – making further improvements to the game. Iris will help with alleviating performance bottlenecks on dedicated servers.So far we’ve seen servers experience roughly half the lag they did before Iris was enabled.Iris replaced the old UE4 networking layer so a server keeps its speed as it fills up. Before the update, every extra player cost the server more time: a quiet server ran at full speed, but a full one took eight times longer to do the same work.We also want to hear your experience with the new engine upgrade and Iris.Have you noticed a difference in performance, good or bad? Feel free to provide your feedback on the latest patch HERE, we are always working on improving the Conan Exiles experience so your voice matters!Additionally we are aware that this latest update forced a recook on all mods. That is because of serialization changes in the base engine.The net effect is the same – mods being flagged as out of date until the authors recook them.Good news is that modders have been made aware of this situation before hand so they are working hard on recooking their mods.Legacy of the Giant-Kings Part 2On October 6, The Legacy of the Giant-Kings: Part Two continues the ongoing new four-part story arc, taking you deeper into the mystery unfolding across the Exiled Lands.Mysterious rifts are spreading across the lands. What lies beyond them and what ancient secrets are waiting to be uncovered?The Legacy of the Giant-Kings has only just begun to reveal its secrets. Gather your thralls, friends or enemies and prepare for new challenges in both the Exiled Lands and the Isle of Siptah.Check out more bout the upcoming content here: Legacy of the Giant-Kings: Part Two Arrives October 6 – Conan ExilesPublic Beta Client – Join the ranksThank you all for joining the Public Beta and for helping us dig up bugs.For everyone that participated in the 2.2.0 Public beta testing, you will be receiving your Golden Pickaxe soon.The team is
