Still no word on when that’ll be released, but the project is over here if you want to check in. Mount & Blade creators TaleWorlds have been tapping external developers for Warband expansions while they themselves focus on Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord. It's since been fixed up and relaunched by a little team call Brytenwalda. The game was low on content and high on bugs, as you can read about here. In order to be able to run Mount & Blade: Warband at a minimum standard for the game, you will need a CPU ranked better than Intel Pentium 4 2.0 GHz or AMD. Warband's Viking Conquest add-on got a recent update following a shaky initial release in December. Mount & Blade: Warband is the standalone expansion pack to the strategy action role-playing video game Mount & Blade.Announced in January 2009, the game was developed by the Turkish company TaleWorlds Entertainment and was published by Paradox Interactive on March 30, 2010. There are also some decent sales which slaps a 66 percent discount on all other Mount & Blade franchise titles. Here's what you should know: it'll only be free until Sunday - that's the 30th - at 1 p.m. Imagine me bellowing this information to you like a television mattress salesmen. For the rest of this weekend Mount & Blade: Warband is free on Steam, finally bringing an answer to the question on everyone's lips: ' What is free this weekend is it Mount & Blade?' It is! Along with all its expansions - Mount & Blade: Napoleonic Wars and Viking Conquest Reforged Edition are also both free.
