Rising Lords News
Introducing the Market Update 👛
Dear Lords and Ladies!
As we announced in our last Patch Notes update, we are currently hard at work on our first DLC! However, we're also determined to make the base game even better. So not only have we listened to a lot of feedback from our community, but we have also come up with something new that we think will make a positive difference to the gameplay. ❤️
[h3]A free new building to discover[/h3]
Have you ever waited in vain for the Merchant to appear in your province, only for him to arrive too late?
Fear not, we have a solution for you: The Market building offers you an alternative to this excruciating uncertainty!
Trading may not be quite as lucrative, as you will have to sell your goods at a 20% lower price. However, it is still an option worth exploring. You will also find eight random wares that change every turn. You can buy them at a 20% higher price if you wish.
Start the game, invest your gold and let us know what you think of this new addition to the Rising Lords building radial! 🔨
[h3]But wait ... is that it?[/h3]
Of course, that's not all. Describing every single change introduced in this patch in detail would result in an endless wall of text, so we'll just let you know: We have added a lot of new things, changed a few bits and fixed a lot of issues! See the patch notes below for more details. 📜
Best,
Team Argonwood

👑 Announcing Dellpiani Update and first-ever DLC 👑 (1.0.7)
Lords and Ladies!
Today, as a token of our gratitude, we're releasing a major free content update!
But that's not all: We're also thrilled to announce our very first DLC and show you a sneak peek of its setting to give you a taste of what's to come.
[h3]The Journey So Far[/h3]
Over the past few weeks since release, the team has been working hard to address as many of your issues as possible and help where we can. It's been incredibly rewarding to hear your positive feedback on our ongoing efforts to improve Rising Lords!
So you may not be surprised to learn that our patch notes this time are PACKED with fixes and changes to the game. As we have said before, we want to ensure a smoother and more enjoyable experience for all players.
Thank you for your patience, for your honest feedback and reviews, for reporting edge cases that we have never seen before, and most of all, for taking this incredible journey with us!
It has been amazing to see how much our Discord Community has grown, and to welcome so many new faces! Whether you're an experienced player or just discovering our game, joining the server is a fantastic way to connect with other Lords and Ladies, share tips and strategies, and keep up to date with the latest news. ❤️
Discover the Dellpiani heritage
With this update, we wanted to give back and bring you something new.
Since the events of Rising Lords' gripping main story, some time has passed in the medieval lands of Aubelin. It is further south that this content update takes place: Meet the Dellpiani nobles, proud descendants of the lost Lyrean Empire! 👑
Based on the southern coast of Aubelin, they are brilliant merchants with a strong focus on seafaring and trade, their ships protected by crossbowmen in heavy armor. Along with this new heritage comes an engaging two-player map that pits you against each other for the precious and resourceful islands of the Lyrean coast. 🗺️
You can experience the ways of a Dellpiani noble alone or with friends in all Rising Lords scenarios - starting right now!
For details and stats on the Dellpiani heritage, please see the patch notes at the bottom of this update!
Explore faraway lands... in our first DLC!
But that's not all - here is a little taste of what we are currently working on:
[h3]We're proud to announce Rising Lords' first-ever DLC! 🎉[/h3]
Instead of returning to the familiar lands of Aubelin, prepare for an all-new adventure as you encounter an entirely new civilisation. Say goodbye to the lush meadows and dense forests you know, as you venture out onto the sands.
We are thrilled to share this next step with you and present a new twist on the unique formula of Rising Lords. Exploring this vastly different setting will bring many fun surprises and mechanics to work with.
Of course, this is just a taste of what you can expect, and more details will be revealed over the coming months. Stay tuned as we delve deeper into what this next chapter has in store for you!
In the meantime, we hope you have lots of fun with the main game and the free Dellpiani update! ❤️
