Funcom has announced The Frozen North as the first free expansion to Conan Exiles. The game world will grow by 70% and comes packed with new content and a host of game improvements. The Frozen North will go live on August 16th. 

In addition, XBox One players will get their first chance to try out CE when it also goes live on August 16th, complete with the expansion as well. 

Players will  have the icy biome of the northern reaches to explore. Players will have to fend of the climate to stay warm by dressing for a weather system that is "alien" to the one from which they've come. 

Several new mechanics are being introduced such as fishing traps, beekeeping, cooking, and brewing. Lastly, Ymir, the Lord of Storm and War will become the newest member of the pantheon with players able to dedicate themselves to his service.

“This expansion update does not just mean more content and more features,” says Creative Director Joel Bylos. “The team has also worked extremely hard to make sure this release brings with it significant improvements to core aspects of the game such as combat, artificial intelligence, and more. These improvements, in addition to the twenty-eight updates we have already introduced to the game over its six months in PC Early Access, mean this version of Conan Exiles is bigger, and even more importantly, better than ever before.”
