Nordland, Rebuilt From the Original Files
Posted by Staff in Dev Diary on Monday, 12 October 2026
The first place we rebuilt was the Barony of Nordland, where the Empire's war begins.
Its hills and coast come from the original height data, its fields from the original textures, and its water and sky from the game's own settings. The camps, farms, fences and windmills are the original models, placed where the game placed them.
Every Tier 1 start
Nordland is not alone. Every Tier 1 starting area is in: Nordland and Norsca, Ekrund and Mount Bloodhorn, and the Blighted Isle. The world streams in as you travel, so you can walk from one zone into the next. You can swim, too.
