Mount and Blade II: Bannerlord is setting sail for uncharted waters with its upcoming expansion, War Sails. TaleWorlds is taking the medieval chaos of Calradia beyond land for the first time, bringing large-scale naval battles, piracy, sieges, and trade routes to the series.
Described as the biggest expansion in Bannerlord’s history, War Sails expands the game’s sense of freedom; players will no longer conquer just castles, but entire oceans. According to news, the DLC is set to launch on November 26, with official gameplay footage already shared. You may see the newly shared DLC gameplay video below.
War Sails doesn’t stop at sea combat; it introduces shipbuilding, crew management, and open-sea strategy. Players will be able to construct vessels, recruit sailors, and command naval assaults using an upgraded version of Bannerlord’s physics-based combat system, now reimagined for life at sea.
The expansion will also feature stormy weather conditions, naval support during sieges, and inter-faction trade routes, reshaping the core of the Bannerlord experience. The community is already abuzz, calling it “Mount and Blade meets pirates.”
Will this new voyage redefine the future of Bannerlord, or simply stand as an ambitious side story on the waves of Calradia? Share your thoughts and stay tuned to both X and VGNW for the latest updates.
