Hot new PC game Manor Lords is free for Game Pass members today

The newly released Manor Lords is a strategy game set in the medieval era that has the potential to become a major success on PC. It has already set a remarkable achievement on Steam.

It's clear that Manor Lords is highly anticipated by gamers, as over 3 million individuals have included it on their wishlist on the digital gaming marketplace.

If every single person were to purchase it, Manor Lords might achieve viral success in a year full of unexpected hits. Palworld and Helldivers 2, which made millions in sales, were both surprises. Is it possible that Manor Lords will be the next one?

Wait a moment, do you know what the game is all about? Let me give you some insights about Manor Lords, the dirt-coated strategy game that might dominate your social media pages in the near future.

In Manor Lords, you take on the role of a landowner in eastern Europe during the 14th century. Your objective is to turn a medieval burgh into a thriving village or town by developing it.

The core of the game relies on an intricate resource-management scheme, fueled by a chain of production that generates goods from the plentiful regions on the map. Consequently, your selection of the optimal location to establish your base is critical.

Once you have arrived at a section, your citizens will begin building houses, farming, or digging mines. It is important to ensure their happiness as they may not be able to defend against enemy attacks. Also, it may be challenging to justify taxing the impoverished peasants. Best of luck!

If you're familiar with Age of Empires and Total War games, you'll easily get the hang of the Manor Lords' damp villages.

When Will Manor Lords Be Released?

The release of Manor Lords is scheduled for Friday, April 26, at 2 pm in the UK. The game can be found on Steam, the Epic Games Store, Microsoft Store, and GOG. However, we should keep in mind that the game is still in early access, and it may not have all the features, content, or finesse that the final product will have.

What's The Cost Of Manor Lords?

Before releasing Manor Lords, Hooded Horse, the game's publisher, did not reveal the price of the game. They kept it a secret.

However, now that it has been released, the cost of the game across all available platforms is known.

The new game is currently available at a discounted rate of 35 percent on almost all platforms except for the Microsoft store.

On both Steam and the Epic Games Store, you can snag this game for a slightly lower price at £26.24, which is just a few pennies less compared to GOG's price of £26.29. If you head to the Microsoft Store, however, you'll notice the game is being sold at a much steeper price of £35.

"Manor Lords: Available On Game Pass?"

In addition to Steam, the video game will also be accessible on Xbox Game Pass for PC, which has a monthly fee of £8. Individuals who have registered for Xbox's gaming service can participate in the game as a component of their subscription, effective immediately.

Remember, if you're a new user, you can get a two-week trial of Xbox Game Pass for just £1. This is a great option if you want to test the waters before making a purchase.

Is Steam Deck Verification For Manor Lords?

Great news for those who love Valve's portable computer: Manor Lords will be available to play on the Steam Deck.

Will Manor Lords Be Available On Consoles?

For a period of time, those playing on consoles will need to observe as players on computers have initial access to the game.

In the end, Manor Lords is expected to become available on Xbox consoles at some stage, as mentioned on its subreddit's FAQ section. Nevertheless, there isn't any indication of a release for PlayStation 5.

Our guess is that Manor Lords will become available on consoles once the early access stage concludes and the game is fully developed. However, it's difficult to predict when this will happen. Since the game is created by one independent developer, Slavic Magic, there could be a prolonged waiting period as they work on resolving any issues that arise during the preview phase.

On the flip side, it's possible that the game's open-world won't be as extensive as other games that aim for greater ambitions. Take Baldur's Gate 3, for instance, which had a nearly three-year gap between early access and the game's official release. Meanwhile, Valheim's early access was available for two years before arriving on Xbox consoles.
