Manor Lords is the hot new medieval game coming to Xbox soon
Last week marked the eagerly anticipated launch of Manor Lords, a medieval strategy game that quickly garnered acclaim from fans. Even before its release, Manor Lords had already secured the title of Steam’s most wish-listed game, setting high expectations for its performance. However, as it debuted in early access, developers Slavic Magic continue to actively develop the game, signalling ongoing changes and improvements in the coming months.
“Since yesterday’s launch, Manor Lords has already sold over 1 million copies and hit a peak Steam concurrent player count of 170,000. Highest ever for a city builder!”
While Slavic Magic has not yet unveiled the full patch notes for Manor Lords’ first major update, they have provided a preview of several upcoming features. Among these anticipated changes are adjustments to address peculiar bugs, fine-tuning of archer damage, and reworking of trade oversupply mechanics to foster more balanced regional specialisation.
Changes
Of particular note is the decision to slow down the rate at which the AI claims territories, offering players greater opportunity to develop their empires before expansion. Combined with enhancements to sawpit efficiency and storage, these adjustments promise a more immersive and strategic gameplay experience.
Furthermore, Slavic Magic assures players that the upcoming patch, along with subsequent updates, will remain compatible with existing saves. This commitment to backward compatibility underscores the studio’s dedication to providing a seamless and player-friendly experience throughout the early access phase.
However, it’s important to recognise that while Manor Lords continues to evolve during early access, the core structure and major mechanics of the game are already established. While additional polishing, balancing, and bug fixes are planned, players should not anticipate fundamental changes to the game’s foundation.
As Manor Lords embarks on its early access journey, Slavic Magic remains steadfast in their commitment to collaborating with players to refine and enhance the game. With consistent patches addressing player feedback, Manor Lords aims to realise its full potential as a captivating and immersive medieval strategy experience.
Available now on Xbox and PC platforms via early access, Manor Lords invites players to embark on a journey of conquest and diplomacy in a richly detailed medieval world.
