I know that Conan Exiles exists because everything must be based on some kind of pre-existing property. Still, the fact it's managed to continue to exist for a whole decade tickles me. What do you mean this game based on a 100 year old character that most people probably link to Arnold Schwarzenegger above anything else is still going strong? So strong, in fact, that it is getting a big update next month that revamps the survival game's look and makes various nice sounding tweaks. For free!

Conan Exiles Enhanced is bringing a huge visual upgrade to the survival game in May, but that's not all it's adding.

Holding space. We loved the look of Orbitals when we first locked eyes on it at The Game Awards 2025. We liked it even more when it cropped up at the February 2026 Nintendo Direct.
