It's going to be magical in Pioneers of Pagonia!

Ingelheim near Frankfurt, Germany August 21st, 2024 – In Pioneers of Pagonia, medieval-fantasy city builder with the biggest “Wuselfaktor” of all time from award-winning developer studio Envision Entertainment, the Magic Update is the fourth extensive content update to be released this year as part of Early Access. Players can expect new, playful challenges in the medieval fantasy world of Pagonia with the “Cursed”, numerous magical combat units, expanded production chains and new buildings such as the gem mine and the innovative treasure hunter. The magic update will enter open beta on Steam at the end of October, and visitors to PAX West 2024 can play it in advance at the Envision Entertainment booth in the Arch Expo Hall, Level 4, #634.

To make it easier and quicker for new players to familiarize themselves with the world of Pagonia, the Magic Update massively improves the first steps into the game. Newcomers will be informed about how to play the game and important game mechanics through short video sequences while they build their first settlements. Some of these introductory videoclips will already be available in September as part of a Quality-of-Life update.

 
New enemies, the “Cursed”, are emerging in Pagonia and are corrupting and abusing nature for their own purposes. Only units with knowledge of magic can remove the curses and thus prevent the “Cursed” from successfully performing their rituals and threatening waves of attacks invading via their portals. But warlocks and sorceresses need special weapons and equipment to oppose the “Cursed”. New resources, building types, units and production chains are available, which must be used strategically and skilfully. This opens a further tactical component that provides even more excitement, especially for strategy experts.

 
The Magic Update also introduces a particularly interesting explorer unit: The treasure hunter can discover hidden riches, secret arsenals and lost artifacts in the world of Pagonia. There are also secret treasure maps, which must first be found or acquired through bartering. The male treasure hunter is voiced by the German strategy expert Maurice Weber, while American streamer and presenter Ovilee May lends her voice to the female treasure hunter. Players can also use the menu to select their favourites for specific units – including American internet star SodaPoppin and German content creators Gronkh and Hand of Blood.

 
Further details on all contents of the Magic Update will be announced after the end of the open beta.
