• New BETA version is available for testing (0.8.097) - 1 August 2026

  What's insideI recommend checking out the last preview here: https://steamcommunity.com/games/1363080/announcements/detail/677378351435875656 Additionally, the community on Discord was insisting that we do something about Artisan Production Focus https://discord.com/channels/729052685621526619/1478130112577929266 I hesitated cause I promised no refactors, but after some (a lot of) pressure, we took some time to work on it. I replaced it with an Active Recipe Selection. The numbers represent the crafting queue priority.

• Manor Lords' next beta update adds what all video games are sorely missing: cow breeding - 21 July 2026

  Anyone who knows me knows that the one frustration I come back to in games, above all else, more than yellow paint, quest markers and horrendously written dialogue, is that there just isn't enough cow breeding. Where is it? The video game industry is sorely lacking in that department, but fear not fellow freaks, Manor Lords has our back, as by the end of the month you'll be able to breed your cattle to your hearts' content.

• Update Preview - 19 July 2026

  Hey hey, Let me yap a little bit about what's coming to Manor Lords soon. Since we pushed our technical refactors to main, we are now ready to start pushing new features to beta. Construction YardWe divided Structures into Basic and Advanced. Advanced Structures will require skilled builders employed at the Construction Yard. Those builders have faster construction speed on basic structures too.The yard has multiple Handcarts for faster transportation of construction resources. It can also utilize Oxen with Ox Carts to bring multiple Timber logs in a single trip. Additionally, the Guides now have to actually load the Ox Cart. Large Stone Church The new Church upgrade makes the end game cityscape look even more realistic. We wanted to make the construction sites more lively as the process for Advanced Structures now takes much longer, so you'll see for instance workers bringing Water fro…

• Small Beta Hotfix 0.8.090 - 9 July 2026

  Few quick wordsFor those who worry, even if technical issues are distracting us, we are constantly working on new content and features. It's just things aren't ready to be published yet. And if our comittment to some bugs seems baffling to you, please also remember that the game has a relatively large audience which makes even quite obscure bugs ruin people's playthroughs on daily basis, in other words if it wasn't important, we wouldn't prioritize it.I wish, more than anyone, that progress on content was quicker, but we're doing everything we can, and I truly think that the team can't grow any larger without introducing risk. Finally, if I ever make a vote on Twitter or Discord about some potential refactor, I think some people assume this is our main concern at the moment and nothing gets worked on besides that particular issue. The case is very opposite - the votes are usually about…

• New BETA version is available for testing (0.8.078) - 6 June 2026

  Hello everyone, Finally, geez! If you look at the version numbers, we've had 13 internal versions since the last Beta dropped. Annoyingly, this update is mostly technical, plus some cosmetics and a lot of bugfixes. The new style of the GUI will be most noticable (main HUD will soon get a similar makeover), but you should also notice a large improvement in performance, pathfinding quality and unit collision quality. The trickiest bits were:You don't want to get units stuck together, but you want units to get stuck a little, otherwise combat feels too weightless.You want the same results while playing on 1x, 4x and 12x but you don't want to do 12x the work on the CPU. You need to somehow improve the simulation resolution on high game speeds but without sacrificing performance. This causes a constant struggle, obviously we need the game to play smoothly and to be responsive, but a lot of t…
