If you follow Conan Exiles’ twitter, you might have noticed that a bunch of gamers have been pestering Funcom this morning over the fact that the game, which was supposed to be launching today on the Epic Games Store as a free title for its first week, was not in fact there and appeared to have been taken down. As it turns out, that wasn’t exactly an error, as now Epic (not Funcom) has announced the move and seems to be taking full responsibility for it too.
“The Epic Games Store team has decided that Conan Exiles will not be free, but will be available for purchase on the store at a later date,” the EGS twitter account just posted.
Yikes. There’s no statement from Funcom or the Conan Exiles team yet as we type this, but we’ll update when the studio chimes in.
