Conan Exiles Drops Chapter 2 Of Its Age Of Sorcery Narrative And A New Battle

Conan Exiles has received its first major update since the release of its game-changing Age of Sorcery expansion back in September. The update is now live on all platforms and introduces the second chapter of the expansion’s narrative along with new head hunter contracts, pet rebalancing, and a new battle .

“The arrival of sorcery has shaken the foundations of Funcom. “In Chapter 2, players will come across the camps of Khitan Headhunters in both the Exiled Lands and The Isle of Siptah. To understand the new sorcery that has burgeoned, they will task you with hunting down and bringing them sorcerer NPCs across the lands. Although their skull will do, living bodies provide much higher rewards, including a new armor set.”

If you haven’t been following the storyline, here’s a recap of what transpired in Chapter 1 to get you up to speed:

The free Chapter 2 update also opens up the new Witch Hunt Encounter which will task players with hunting down four boss-level sorcerers and interrupting their powerful rituals. These sorcerer’s can’t be taken alive, but you can also bring their skulls to the Khitan camps to claim a big payout.

There’s also a ton of new cosmetics to be unlocked through the new battle or purchased in the cash shop, including new armor and weapon skins, new pets, new housing decorations, and the extended Stormglass building set.
