The official launch of Conan Exiles on PC, PS4, Xbox One
When can Conan Exiles be played? The official servers will go live on May 8 at 1 PM Central European Time along with the release patch.
From when can the patch be downloaded? For Xbox One and PS4, the Day One patches for Conan Exiles will be available from 9 AM. No official time has been announced yet for the PC version, but it is expected that the patch will also be available at 9 AM.
How large will the patch be?
- PS4: about 14 GB
- Xbox One: about 44GB
- PC: about 1.4 GB
Will the servers be wiped? Yes. The official servers, which were taken offline on the evening of May 7, will be completely reset and will be available again to all players from 1 PM.
Whether unofficial/private servers will be wiped is up to the owners. Funcom recommends that owners reset all databases and thus the servers to align them with the current game state.
What kind of servers are officially available? Funcom will initially set up 225 official servers where you can play. Three categories are planned:
- PvP: On these servers, combat between players is possible at any time, but damaging buildings will be limited to “prime time” (5 PM to 11 PM server time). Players can fight each other at will, but raids and damage to structures will be limited.
- PvE: Only creatures and NPCs can harm players. Slaves do not attack players and players cannot attack or kill slaves.
- PvE Conflict: On PvE Conflict servers, you can only attack players during prime time (5 PM to 11 PM server time). Damaging buildings is disabled at all times. These servers will initially only be available for PC. They may later be opened for PS4 and Xbox One, depending on popularity.
On all official servers, the “cleaning” will only take place between 6 PM and 10 PM server time.
Are there patch notes? Yes. The main changes are two new biomes that expand the game world. In the east, you can explore a jungle-like swamp, and in the far north, a dangerous volcano. We have summarized the patch notes for the release of Conan Exiles for you in this article.
