Conan the Barbarian and Valeria Enter the Battlefield in March of Empires Crossover Event

Two legendary warriors step onto a single battlefield as March of Empires launches a month-long crossover event centered around Conan the Barbarian and Valeria.

Game developer and publisher Gameloft has announced a major crossover event for March of Empires, introducing the iconic warrior Conan the Barbarian as a new Epic Champion. Joining him is Valeria, a fierce fighter who stands as his equal in strength, skill, and battlefield presence.

The limited-time event began on March 16 and will run for four weeks, offering players a narrative-driven experience filled with exclusive content, progressive unlocks, and special rewards. Rather than a simple character addition, the event unfolds as an extended campaign that combines classic sword-and-sorcery themes with the strategic warfare gameplay that defines March of Empires.

Conan the Barbarian draws inspiration from Arnold Schwarzenegger’s famous portrayal of the character. In the game, he arrives as one of the most powerful Champions ever introduced, designed specifically for frontline combat and close-quarters engagements. Conan emphasizes raw strength and battlefield dominance, allowing players to lead aggressive assaults and push through enemy defenses with overwhelming force.

Alongside him stands Valeria, a warrior known for speed, precision, and tactical effectiveness. While Conan excels through brute power, Valeria offers a more agile and calculated combat style, creating a balanced dynamic between the two characters. Developed as a co-lead of the crossover event, Valeria complements Conan’s presence and contributes a strategic edge to battlefield leadership.

During the four-week event, players can unlock both Champions by progressing through dedicated storylines tied to the crossover narrative. Special missions, challenges, and event objectives will reward players with unique items and bonuses while gradually revealing more of the event’s story. Each Champion also includes distinct abilities, stat profiles, and progression systems that develop over the course of the event, encouraging players to continue returning each week.

The event also introduces exclusive legendary equipment sets for both characters. These items include signature weapons, themed armor pieces, and unique artifacts inspired by classic barbarian fantasy. Players can collect and upgrade these pieces to enhance their Champions’ effectiveness in combat.

Certain gear combinations unlock powerful combat synergies, allowing Conan and Valeria to become even more formidable on the battlefield. However, all event equipment and rewards are only available during the limited-time crossover, making participation during the event period essential for players who want to obtain the full set of rewards.
