About Conan Exiles Enhanced
Conan Exiles Enhanced drops you into the savage lands of Hyboria where you must survive extreme temperatures, hunt for food, and fend off monsters. The game runs on Unreal Engine 5, delivering upgraded visuals, lighting, and performance across a seamless open world that stretches from southern deserts to northern snow‑capped peaks.
From a modest shelter to a sprawling city, you can build piece by piece, wage siege wars, and even command towering god‑avatars. Play alone, with friends in co‑op, or on persistent multiplayer servers that you can host and fully control.
01 / THE GUIDE
Survival Mechanics
Temperature is a core concern: you must dress appropriately, light campfires, or seek shade to stay warm or cool, as the description notes that “Dress well or light a campfire to stay warm and make sure to cool yourself down in the heat.”
Food, water, and shelter are also required; hunting animals, cooking, and building shelters protect you from sandstorms and the cold, while dark ruins can corrupt you with foul sorcery if you explore them unprepared.
- Carry enough clothing layers for both heat and cold.
- Build a campfire before nightfall to avoid temperature damage.
02 / THE GUIDE
Building System
Resources harvested from the world let you craft tools, weapons, and structures ranging from small homes to entire cities, using a “powerful building system” that lets you place traps, elevators, defenses, furniture, and crafting stations.
The same system supports siege weapons and explosives, enabling you to break enemy walls and defend your own creations, as the text states you can “build siege weapons and use explosives to break down the walls of your enemy’s city.”
- Start with a defensible base surrounded by traps.
- Add a crafting station early to produce building materials.

03 / THE GUIDE
Combat Style
Combat is described as “action‑oriented, combo‑based,” allowing you to dodge, block, and chain attacks with swords, bows, daggers, axes, and more against monsters and other players.
The same passage emphasizes that mastering timing and combos is essential for surviving both PvE threats and PvP sieges, highlighting the brutal and bloody nature of fights.
- Practice dodging to reduce incoming damage.
- Experiment with different weapon types to find comfortable combos.
04 / THE GUIDE
Dark Sorcery
By sacrificing a portion of your life force you can “corrupt yourself to wield” insidious sorceries, gaining special perks and the ability to summon demons, undead, and lightning.
Four deities grant avatars that let you “crush enemies and entire buildings” when you summon and control their towering forms, adding a god‑scale option to combat.
- Weigh the life‑force cost against the power of a spell before sacrificing.
- Use summoned demons as distractions during sieges.
05 / THE GUIDE
Multiplayer & Server Control
You can join public persistent servers, host private ones, or play locally with friends in co‑op mode; the description notes you have “full control of the rules and settings” as a server administrator.
Server tools let you change progression speed, spawn monsters, toggle invisibility, and more, while Steam Workshop integration allows you to download or create mods via the Conan Exiles Unreal Editor.
- Test new server settings with a small group before opening to the public.
- Explore community mods for fresh challenges.
