Funcom has turned a whole ton of its attention back to Conan Exiles with the release of the 2.6 update and the People of the Dragon DLC today – yes, on PC and console at the same time.
“People of the Dragon Pack introduces 110 new items ranging from medieval building pieces to weapons, armor and placeables,” the studio says. “The newest Conan Exiles DLC is themed around the proud kingdom of Nemedia, Aquilonia’s longtime rival and neighbor to the east.
“While Nemedia is perhaps most famed for fostering the leading philosophers and historians in Hyboria, the old kingdom can also boast a powerful army and have held the Aquilonians at bay for millennia. The People of the Dragon Pack allows you to create your own version of a Nemedian stronghold, taking this history into account. Among the new placeables you will find journals, scrolls and a bookshelf, representing the learned women and men of Nemedia, whereas the new weapons and armor pieces allow you to charge into battle donning the fierce dragon emblem. And as a counterweight to the Roman inspired Aquilonian architecture, Nemedian building pieces have a distinct Germanic touch. Most of the new items are displayed in the brand-new People of the Dragon Pack trailer.”
The Steam price for the new DLC is $9.99; the press release is careful to note that while the DLC adds new exclusive items, all of them are comparable in stats to existing items, so nothing gives “in-game advantage in power.”
