Viking Conquest takes the Mount & Blade franchise into historical Dark Age Britain, at a time when Norsemen began to raid the British Isles, looting monasteries and burning coastal settlements.
Other than a few screenshots, about all we know is contained within these official words: Whenever 'soon' turns out to be, Viking Conquest will launch initially on Steam Early Access. Today they announced Viking Conquest, a Norse expansion coming from the folks behind Warband's Brytenwalda mod. While creators TaleWorlds are focused on the sequel, they've drafted another mod team to create another add-on for M&B: Warband. If you want more armies and more lands to conquer now, now now now, now now now now now now now, stop stamping your feet and pouting as more are coming 'soon'. Mount & Blade II is looking awfully fancy, but don't expect to play it any time soon.
