Character transfers are officially back online for Conan Exiles players on Steam, resolving a critical roadblock for those looking to relocate their legacy across the Exiled Lands or the Isle of Siptah. This hotfix isn't just about movement; it’s a necessary technical bridge leading up to the massive Enhanced version upgrade scheduled for May 5th.
The standout fix in this patch addresses the terrifying "ghost follower" bug. Previously, players who attempted to transfer servers found their thralls, pets, and mounts vanishing into the ether. Funcom has confirmed that these missing followers should now be fully restored upon login. If you were holding off on moving your base because you didn't want to lose your high-tier thrall army, the coast is finally clear.
Being able to jump between servers is vital for the health of the game's meta, especially as clans prepare for the upcoming engine overhaul. This stability ensures that the transition to the Enhanced version remains seamless, allowing you to keep your progression intact while the world around you gets a significant visual and technical boost. For those of us who have spent hundreds of hours building a specific clan legacy, this restoration of service is a massive relief.
As we approach the May 5th milestone, ensure your character is positioned exactly where you want them. With the follower bug squashed, you can now safely consolidate your resources and thralls before the new era of the Exiled Lands begins. Keep an eye on your login screen to verify your restored followers are back in formation.
