Songs of Conquest – Vanir DLC

Inspired by Scandinavian folklore and Norse mythology, the Vanir DLC introduces a brand-new faction to the roster. The Vanir have a unique transformation mechanic that sets them apart from the existing four factions, offering players a choice to either stay true to the faction's warmongering roots, or embrace primordial magic to transform units into mythical beasts with new abilities and visuals. New units include sinister swines that never die, cackling creatures with haunted fiddles, and chilling chieftains with the power to transform into towering behemoths. The dual forms for each unit introduce new twists to the traditional gameplay, creating an abundance of new strategic options for players to take advantage of.

The DLC also comes packaged with nine new Wielder hero units and seven new maps for fans to test their skills on. There are five new Conquest maps of different sizes, pitting the Vanir against existing factions in a test of strength, skill and vigilance. Two new story-focused Challenge maps are also part of the package – players can lead outcast Jarn Steadfast in the fight against the Vanir's Vildra corruption, or follow the journey of the lost troll Sorg on his way home.
