    Jun 10, 2019 17:38 UTC SURPRISE! Funcom’s Conan Chop Chop is a real game On April 1st Funcom cheekily announced the upcoming game Conan Chop Chop as an April Fools’ Day joke. But surprise! Not only is it real, the game will release on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch in less than three months’ time! DOWNLOAD THE CONAN CHOP CHOP ANNOUNCEMENT TRAILER: Download from the FTP | Embed from YouTube Download key art and screenshots OSLO, Norway – June 10th, 2019: “… game that is definitively not real, but probably should be” “I’m thinking this might actually be a hit” “Why is it that every April Fools’ game I see I ACTUALLY wanna buy it” These were some of the remarks we received from press and viewers when we announced Conan Chop Chop on April 1st. The game was perceived to be an April Fools’ Day joke, but today we set the record straight: The roguelike hack and slash game Conan Chop Chop is very real indeed. So real that it’s going to release on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch on September 3rd 2019! In fact, Funcom and the Australian developers at Mighty Kingdom are proud to announce that Conan Chop Chop will be the most realistic stick figure game ever to feature Conan the Barbarian! “Keeping this a secret has been a hardship,” admits Funcom CEO Rui Casais. “The feedback we got from fans when we released the April Fools’ Day trailer was amazing and remarkably unanimous, and so I have been itching to give them the good news ever since.” “But don’t be fooled by the game’s humoristic and quirky looks.

  • Draft Version
    2019 Fourth Quarter Financial Report The Funcom® Group Funcom SE and subsidiaries Words from the CEO “The final quarter of 2019 saw the continued strength of Conan Exiles, with two DLC launches leading to a month of December that was the third best in terms of average number of PC players, proving once again that Conan Exiles still has a lot to give. It’s with this energy that we are working towards a paid expansion to release during the second half of 2020, growing the game with new content for players to explore. In addition, we will continue launching cosmetic DLCs and doing free updates to the game as we have done so far. We also released Moons of Madness on PC for Halloween, having been positively received and being a good new entry in the Secret World IP and Funcom’s game portfolio. The console versions of the game are scheduled for release at the end of March and we feel this is a game that lends itself very well to the console gaming experience. In terms of upcoming games, we have Conan Chop Chop getting close to its launch in 2Q 2020, having taken longer than originally planned due to the complexities of a simultaneous release on four platforms for a multiplayer game. And finally, the most important event for shareholders has been the announcement and subsequent launch of a voluntary offer to acquire all shares in Funcom SE by Tencent Cloud Europe BV. The offer was recommended by Funcom’s Supervisory and Management boards as it was concluded that the Offer is fair to Funcom’s shareholders from a financial point of view and in the best interest of Funcom, the sustainable success of its business and clients, employees, shareholders and other stakeholders.” Rui Casais Chief Executive Officer 1 1.

    AGE of Conan Role playing in the Hyborian Age using Green Ronin’s Dragon AGE™ Role Playing System “Know, O Prince, that between the years when the oceans drank Atlantis and the gleam- ing cities, and the years of the rise of the sons of Aryas, there was an Age undreamed of, when shining kingdoms lay spread across the world like blue mantles beneath the stars – Nemedia, Ophir, Brythunia, Hyperborea, Zamora with its dark-haired women and towers of spider-haunted mystery, Zingara with its chivalry, Koth that bordered on the pastoral lands of Shem, Stygia with its shadow-guarded tombs, Hyrkania whose riders wore steel and silk and gold. But the proudest kingdom of the world was Aquilonia, reigning su- preme in the dreaming west. Hither came Conan, the Cimmerian, black-haired, sullen- eyed, sword in hand, a thief, a reaver, a slayer, with gigantic melancholies and gigantic mirth, to tread the jeweled thrones of the Earth under his sandaled feet.” The Nemedian Chronicles Foreword & Acknowledgements Welcome to the Hyborian Age! This modification of Green Ronin’s Dragon Age role playing game was in- spired by a post on the Dragon Age forums, where a comment was made that the rules would nicely com- plement a Conan based setting. Please note that this document is very much a draft, version 0.1. Although the basics are here more work is required on poisons, alchemy, organizations, mass combat and a bestiary. Hopefully these will appear in an updated document soon! Vaelorn Much of the detail was adapted from two sources: “GURPS Conan” by Steve Jackson Games, and the “Conan RPG” by Mongoose Publishing.
