Mods uploaded to Steam Workshop on or after May 5, 2026 can enter, and the final winners will be decided by judges and a community vote.

Conan Exiles Enhanced has opened the Forge Your Legacy Community Modding Contest, with Funcom putting a $3,000 prize pool behind original mods built for the game.

The event is open to mods for the Conan Exiles Enhanced UE5 version, and projects uploaded to Steam Workshop on or after May 5, 2026 can enter. Creators can submit their work through the official submission form, while the full rules are posted on Funcom’s forum thread.

Funcom said the contest is open globally to anyone of legal age in their home country who owns a legitimate copy of Conan Exiles. The event is void in Russia, Turkey, Ukraine, and where prohibited by law.

  • Submissions are open from July 2 at 13:00 UTC through August 2 at 23:59 UTC.
  • August 3 at 00:00 UTC is when submissions close and internal judging begins.

  • August 14 at 13:00 UTC is when the winners are announced across official channels.

The judging panel includes Funcom, Inflexion Games, and community modders Multigun and Xevyr. Finalists will be scored on fun factor at 40 percent, originality at 30 percent, and visual aesthetic at 30 percent before the community votes on the final placements.

What winners get

The top prize is $1,000, followed by $600 for second place, $350 for third, and $150 each for fourth through tenth. Three honorable mentions drawn from the top 10 most popular Conan Exiles Enhanced mods ported from Legacy will each receive $300, with Lurkit handling payouts through PayPal after the contest wraps.
