Geologists, mines and Scavs arrive with mining update in Pioneers of Pagonia!

Pioneers of Pagonia is now also bustling underground! With the release of the mining update, the second major Early Access content update this year, new units such as the iconic geologist, buildings, powerful combat units and cunning enemies bring new gameplay challenges to the medieval fantasy world of Pagonia. Pioneers of Pagonia is available in Early Access on Steam for 29.99 USD / 29.99 EUR.

Pioneers of Pagonia trailer featuring the geologist:

Thanks to the iconic geologist, who is voiced by the American internet star SodaPoppin in the English voice-over and the most famous German content creator Gronkh in the German version, the Pagonian underground is now also being explored. While iron, silver and coal can now be mined both above and below ground, two completely new resources come into play with gold and nickel. To process these and benefit from the new steel weapons, armor, and new combat units such as the Blade Dancer, new production and supply chains have found their way into Pioneers of Pagonia.

With the Scavs, nasty enemies have also spread across the Pagonian islands. This hostile faction is not only constantly expanding its own territory and thus hindering the player’s expansion, but is also actively mining resources, consuming them and building new bases. If the Scavs are not stopped in time, they can grow into an overpowering opponent. Also new: If you don’t fancy certain enemy types in the game, you can now eliminate them at will in the map generator.

As part of the major mining update, many smaller existing functions, displays and elements have also been improved. For example, the soil now has a greater influence on the cultivation of certain vegetables, and a detailed display of food production in the tavern and consumption in the dwellings and mines has been added to provide a better overview. In addition, the iconic “Monument of Knowledge” building, which is required to achieve some map objectives, is now available in the game.

In addition to constant quality-of-life updates, two more extensive content updates will be added to Pioneers of Pagonia this year. In September, the magic update will feature mysterious new enemies, magical units for the player, new discoveries by the treasure hunter and buildings for gemstone processing, as well as another major content update in Q4 2024.

The development of Pioneers of Pagonia was financially supported by the German games fund grant by the Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Protection. To stay up to date on Pioneers of Pagonia, be sure to follow on Facebook, join Discord or visit the official website.
