Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord will be released sooner than expected

The developers of the upcoming Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord have recently posted an announcement on Steam. The game will be released sooner than expected, on March 30th. Meaning on Monday players will be able to gird on their sword, don their armor, and summon their followers to ride forth to glory.

The developers decided to make the game available for 10% off for two weeks of sale. In addition, players who own any previous Mount & Blade title will be eligible for an additional 10% off in select digital stores.

The game will feature Custom Battle and Campaign game modes. The campaign is a new and somewhat more structured approach to the Mount & Blade experience. It blends a story-line and key events with the traditional sandbox gameplay that players are familiar with. Players can ignore the campaign missions if they wish, and go about their business.

For multiplayer players should expect a continuation of the recent multiplayer beta, which features four different game modes: Skirmish, Captain, Team Deathmatch, and Siege. The developers will continue working on multiplayer by introducing new features, game modes, and other additional content.

You can also watch some siege gameplay below.

  1. I will be playing as the superior muslim faction to conquer all white countries. i shall keep hundreds of white men as slaves doing my work and satisfying my seksual desires even though i’m not homoseksual at all.

      1. it’s called Islam, in Islam you have to conquer non believers or take their head or take their money. a lot of choices and options, a very flexible religion.

      2. Muslim Book 19, Number 4294:

        “the Messenger of Allah […] would say: ‘Fight in the name of Allah and in the way of Allah. Fight against those who disbelieve in Allah. Make a holy war. […] When you meet your enemies who are polytheists, invite them to three courses of action. […] Invite them to (accept) Islam; if they respond to you, accept it from them and desist from fighting against them. […] If they refuse to accept Islam, demand from them the Jizya. If they agree to pay, accept it from them and hold off your hands. If they refuse to pay the tax, seek Allah’s help and fight them […].'”

        1. Take a bribe / payoff . That will make you feel better in your fantasy. Don’t forget to thank the false prophet for marrying a 9 year old girl and being unable to predict his own death by poisoning. Dr. David Wood proves Koran silliness with their own book. youtube

          1. Muslim tax on Non Mulsims

            Goodness, Vince. I know that. It’s called jizya.

            I asking why you’re telling me to “take a bribe”? Haven’t you read anything I’ve written?

  2. “The campaign is a new and somewhat more structured approach to the Mount & Blade experience. It blends a story-line and key events with the traditional sandbox gameplay that players are familiar with. Players can ignore the campaign missions if they wish, and go about their business.”

    this is literally all previous mount and blade games, nothing new.

    1. this is multiplayer only, these codes were sent to a few earlier. the early access will have single player stuff in it.

      1. Yeah. I baught the game anywhere because I loved M&B. The single player is great, just like the original but with more polish.

        1. it was 20 percent off for all who owned the previous games. warband wasn’t the original mount and blade though.

          1. I never baught Warband. A friend of mine told me it was pretty much the same game with crap multiplayer added so I never bothered with it.

          2. wait you’re saying your first and only mount and blade experience was the very first one that came out? if yes, that is the rarest thing i’ve seen.

          3. No, I have Mount&Blade2 now. Before that just Mount&Blade (original) with a mod that let me have thousands of units in a battle.

            I never played Warband. Around the time it came out I was told it was practically the same game (as OG M&B) with crap multiplayer tacked on, so I didnt feel any urge to buy it.

          4. Im clarifying that the first game is not my first and only mount and blade experience. Since iv had to repeat myself twice already.

          5. go read all of the comments again. i never said anything about it being your only mount and blade experience. i said it’s weird if the first game is your first mount and blade experience because warband is most people’s entry to the franchise.
            this conversation is too dumb to be dragged like this, i’m out.

  3. Heads up, if you have Windows 7 this game might not work for you
    i’ve seen plenty of users on steam complain it crashes on start due to a NET framework error or KernelBase error

    infact it doesn’t work for me because i haven’t updated my Windox 10 in more than 2 years
    i’ve also read multiplayer is incredibly unstable

    again, this is Early Access but i’ve expected a degree of Polish for a game that has been in development for nearly a decade

  4. Some news on this Game,

    Earlier today, Mount and Blade 2: Bannerlord released on PC, and the game has already proven to be a huge success, exceeding 160,000 players within six hours of the game’s release.
