Conan Exiles Enhanced May Update Patch Notes (19th May 2026)
Conan Exiles Enhanced receives its first patch, finally adding saddle colour dyeing alongside server browser improvements and exploit fixes.
Saddle dyeing is finally in Conan Exiles, and it's been a long time coming. The Enhanced May Update lands today as the first patch for Conan Exiles Enhanced, and Funcom is giving : community modders, specifically Testerle's Fashionist mod, had this feature working years before the base game caught up. That's a classy acknowledgement, and I'd rather see studios do this than quietly absorb community work without a word.
Beyond cosmetics, the server browser is getting a proper overhaul. Filtered searches should perform better, your filter settings will now persist between sessions, and ping readings are being adjusted to more accurately reflect actual network latency. If you've ever joined a server that looked fine on paper and immediately felt like you were playing through wet concrete, that last fix matters more than it sounds.
Funcom also credits its Whitehat community team for helping identify and close several exploits in this patch. It's a good model: security-minded players working alongside the studio rather than against it.
