Publisher Hooded Horse released a major update for Manor Lords on August 28. The update adds cattle as livestock, apple cider, mead, and a new map called Wide Valley. Cattle can produce milk, which can be processed into cheese with salt, and a cheesemaker role was implemented. Oats were also added as a crop. The game has surpassed 4 million total sales.
Manor Lords keeps growing. The August 28 update, Version 0.8.090-0.8.104, brings the long-requested apple cider to the brewery, where it can be made alongside ale when apples are plentiful. Mead is now available too, giving honey a use it lacked before.
Cattle arrive as purchasable livestock, producing milk, meat, and leather. Milk can be processed into cheese using salt, and a dedicated cheesemaker role is now part of the settlement. Oats join the crop list, easier to grow than barley, and can be threshed for food or turned into animal feed on farms.
The new Wide Valley map is lush, with a large river running through its center, and supports ruling fertile regions as a major lord. Hooded Horse also confirmed the game has surpassed 4 million total sales.
