From Press Release:

August 27, 2026 – Hooded Horse is excited to share that Slavic Magic’s popular medieval city builder and strategy game Manor Lords has passed yet another impressive milestone – four million copies sold across all stores.

​The achievement accompanies the game’s next major update, which introduces heaps of features and quality-of-life tweaks. Become a cow herding mogul with the ability to breed and import bovine livestock. Use apples to brew cider, honey to make mead, and thresh easy-to-grow Oats to feed both humans and animals. Welcome Cheesemongers to the hamlet, whose artisanal skills will form the basis of a future cheese-related perk! All this and more is bookended by another gorgeous new river map known as Wide Valley, a verdant region ripe for lording over.

​A Weekend Deal is currently running on Steam, so anyone eager to try out the latest update can get the game at 35% off for the next two weeks!

​You can find out the full list of changes via the official update notes.

​Manor Lords is available in early access for PC via Steam, GOG, Epic Games Store, and the Microsoft Store for an RRP of $39.99 / £34.99 / €39.99/ ¥4,980, as well as other regional prices.
