Songs Of Conquest Is Getting New Expansion & DLC After Reaching Sales Milestone
Coffee Stain Publishing and Lavapotion have announced that Songs Of Conquest have sold 500,000 units worldwide and will be getting extensive post-launch support after its full 1.0 version release on 20 May 2024. Players can look forward to an expansion coming in Q2 2025 titled Bleak East that will introduce two new factions and a new single-player campaign, as well as four DLC along with free updates that focus on each of the existing factions, moving the story forward and expanding existing gameplay.
Rise Eternal is the first downloadable content that will be coming alongside a free update to Songs of Conquest in Fall 2024, focusing on the game’s necromantic Barony of Loth faction.
Rise Eternal will also be introducing the concept of Tales, story missions that seek to complement the campaigns of the four original factions and push the story forward. The debut DLC will focus on a brand-new Barony of Loth Wielder by the name of Kastus Maal, a scholar slain by Arleon baroness Cecilia Stoutheart. Kastus, now risen and in possession of strong necromantic magic, seeks vengeance against the baroness.
Aside from story missions, Rise Eternal will also bring new artifacts, set bonuses and improvements to the Necromancy gameplay mechanics that is unique to the Barony of Loth faction and free for all players who have purchased the game.
Coming in Q2 2025, the Bleak East expansion will add two new factions to the game – the fierce Vanir, as well as the ancient and seclusive Roots. These factions will be introduced through a large single player campaign, where players will get to experience the harsh new biomes and dangers of the Bleak East.
“We knew from the very beginning that faction variety is crucial for the health of a turn-based strategy like Songs of Conquest.” said Carl Toftfelt, Lead Game Designer at Lavapotion. “Our players have been asking for new factions ever since the closed beta, and we’re super stoked to introduce Vanir and the Roots, and we look forward to sharing more over the coming months.”
Lavapotion have also released a brand new roadmap that outlines post-launch update plans for Songs of Conquest, releasing new content every quarter:
The Rise Eternal DLC releasing in Fall 2024 will be closely followed by Essence Awakened in Winter 2024 and the Bleak East expansion, currently planned for Q2 2025. Two additional DLC updates will be releasing in 2025 for the Barya and Rana factions respectively.
“We set out to make Songs of Conquest some seven years ago, and seeing players enjoy the game is making us immensely proud of what we’ve created.” Magnus Alm, CEO and co-founder of Lavapotion shares. “Developing expansions and DLCs wouldn’t be possible without the dedicated player base that’s been sticking with us throughout development – thank you for believing in us, we cannot wait to see what you think of what’s to come.”
Songs Of Conquest is out now in 1.0 on PC via Steam, Epic Games Store and GOG, and will be coming to PS5 and Xbox Series X/S in Fall 2024. For more information, visit the official website or follow Songs of Conquest on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and YouTube.
