The focus on improving the depth and interactivity of companions and followers aims to make the world feel more alive and reactive. We’ll go into more detail on the various features we’re planning to add at a later date.
Walk The Path of Heroes
In Chapter 1, releasing in October, we will add Companions for the first time. These two fully voiced and fleshed out characters have their own unique progression path and epic story for you to experience alongside them. The second major feature in Chapter 1 is Living Settlements, which breathes life into all the thralls in your base with realistic behavior. They will visit your tavern, eat, sleep, interact with those around them, and more. The following Chapters in the Age of Heroes will bring additional Companions, events, and general follower updates.
As we’ve previously announced, we’re now including an additional smaller update between each Chapter, adding various activities and rewards. Furthermore, we have retired the Battle Pass, with those working on it being distributed across all other areas of the game.
