Conan Exiles is coming to Early Access on PC this summer, with full release on console and PC at some point in the future. You’ll be able to work with (or hunt down) players on public and private servers, and do very unpleasant things to them if you’re not feeling very diplomatic. Here you must fight to survive, build and dominate.

Age of Conan developer Funcom is making an open-world survival game set in the Conan the Barbarian universe, the company announced today. Where the weak are crushed, while the strong survive.
In Conan Exiles, you are an exile, one of thousands cast out to fend for themselves in a barbaric wasteland swept in sandstorms and besieged by enemies. You can check out the announcement trailer for Conan Exiles at the bottom of this post. “Here you must fight to survive, build and dominate”.
Craft weapons, build bases, team up with other players and destroy your foes – like a non-league football match between rivals. In addition to maintaining The Secret World, experimenting with games like The Park, and even dabbling into LEGO a bit, they’re taking another crack at the Conan license. Ride across a vast world and explore alone, or band together with other players to build entire settlements and fortified strongholds.
The website describes the combat in case we gave the impression of a hardcore farming simulator, which is meant to be “savage” and “fast-paced “and is supposed to result in “bone-crushing attacks that will see head rolling and limbs flying”.

The game sets you up as an “exile” with limited resources to get going.
