Dear Settlers,

For this festive season, we have several new buildings for you to add to your home-island: featuring the sparkling star that is the Christmas Market. New specialists, quest chains, skins and more - we've made sure you have plenty of new toys to play with!

So join us in the Christmas Market, grab some hot chocolate, and settle down with a mince pie. It's time for a brand new Dev Diary: our annual snow-filled Xmas event is returning to our islands! Read every detail right here.

Happy settling!

Dear joyful island decorators,

Sonya is sure that not all Christmas wishes have been gathered yet. It is still enough time to help, send your biggest Christmas wish to the Christmas-elf. But the wish must show a great Christmas spirit, for the elves to hear your wish and visit!

Maybe you can note down your wish as a rhyme for them?

Share your Christmas wish in our > Forum <

Happy Settling!

Dear Settlers,

As already mentioned in forums, we are aware that certain difficulties might occur (e.g. a missing quest item) while playing the Mountain Clan Campaign maps. While we believe that we are close to finding a proper solution, we decided to do not deploy any new version during the weekend, as the risk of introducing even more bugs is too high.

Right now we are focusing on additional tests, and hope to be able to offer more information about this topic at the beginning of the next week. Thank you for understanding.

Kind regards,

The Settlers Online Team

Greetings, Settlers!

As we edge ever closer to that festive time of year, we'd like to help you prepare for this Winter season; after all, it's cold outside!

When you next log into the game, don't forget to stop by your mailbox and see if there's anything special inside. You might find a surprise!

Happy settling!
