Life is Feudal: Arden is a reimagined version of the game that retains the core foundation of the MMO while introducing significant changes and improvements. At its heart is a completely new, handcrafted map. A smaller, more detailed world fosters frequent encounters, intensifying competition and collaboration. More accessible F2P monetization designed for a broader audience. And numerous updated and polished features, mechanics, and in-game objects. These updates are making Life is Feudal: Arden more engaging and accessible for everyone.

The Compact, Action-Packed Design of the New Map was crafted based on player feedback to deliver a more engaging and competitive experience. With its compact and detailed layout, the map encourages frequent encounters and heightened player interaction. The improved terrain is better suited for constructing grand structures and castles, while battles for every inch of land are now more intense and dynamic. Separate Green and Red Zones provide distinct safe areas for resource gathering and high-stakes PvP zones, catering to a variety of playstyles. Additionally, Knool-Controlled Territories introduce an exciting PvPvE element, where hostile NPC factions guard valuable resources. Players must either collaborate or compete to overcome the Knools, who actively defend their territories, turning these areas into unpredictable and rewarding battlegrounds. Every element of the redesigned map has been optimized to support strategic gameplay, epic battles, and meaningful progression, delivering the medieval experience players have been waiting for.

New Features to Explore

• New Character Progression: The new system allows seamless switching between combat builds at monuments. Transition from a skilled swordsman to a deadly archer or an unstoppable spearman—all on your main character. 

• Revamped Crafting System: Crafting has been reimagined for accessibility and depth. Simplified mechanics make it easier to produce everyday essentials, while crafting rare and powerful items remains a challenge for the ambitious. 

• Realistic Trade Mechanics: Trading is no longer a safe endeavor. With the removal of instant item transfers, merchants must now personally deliver goods to trading posts. Choose your trade routes wisely, enlist protection, or take a darker path as a bandit preying on unsuspecting travelers.

• Regional Judgment Hours: Guild warfare has never been more strategic. Combat times are now location-based, allowing guilds to focus their efforts on key regions, ensuring all nearby guilds are ready to fight in the same timezone. 

• Group PvP Arenas: Battle alongside friends or rivals, perfecting strategies and sharpening skills in fast-paced, high-stakes combat. Victory here can prepare you for the greater challenges awaiting in Arden’s open world.
• New Structures and Creativity: Arden introduces a vast array of new buildings and structures. Construct bustling villages, towering castles, or impregnable fortifications. Tailor your feudal legacy to your unique vision and defend it against all who challenge you.

Life is Feudal: Arden was developed with significant input from the game’s community. Over the lifespan of the subscription-based version, LTG Studio carefully analyzed player feedback to introduce a new update to the new version of the game. The Closed Beta Test was launched exclusively on LTG Platform with access for experienced players from the MMO version of the game and those who purchased Early Access kits. This provided a unique opportunity to gather valuable insights and refine the game ahead of the Open Beta phase. At the end of 2024, LTG launched the Closed Beta Test for all players subscribed to the MMO version, leveraging the expertise of its dedicated community to implement significant improvements and enhance the overall player experience.

“The launch of Life is Feudal: Arden on Steam marks a significant milestone for the franchise. With a Closed Beta Test in December, the game was rigorously refined based on invaluable player feedback. During the extended testing phase, players formed 261 guilds, destroyed 20,312 characters, and built 578 monuments, shaping the medieval world of Arden. Now, as the game arrives on Steam, it is poised to reach a broader audience, inviting players to forge their own feudal legacy,” says Mikhail Goshkadera, Executive Producer at LTG Studio.

With its highly anticipated launch on Steam, Life is Feudal: Arden is set to redefine the medieval MMO experience. The game invites players to step into a vast, immersive world where strategy, combat, and community-driven development shape the adventure.
