Townsfolk opens up multiplayer with the introduction of the new 1v1 Conquest mode

Conquer New Frontiers in Townsfolk’s Bold 4X Strategy Update

Townsfolk from Short Circuit Studios shifts from peaceful settlement-building into heated strategy warfare with its new 1v1 Conquest Mode. This update keeps the heart of its calm 4X design while adding more competitive depth for players seeking tactical decision-making and **real-time strategy conquest gameplay**.

With the arrival of multiplayer, barracks, and troop recruitment, Townsfolk now lets you defend or expand your borders through force. These combat systems introduce a faster tempo and elevate long-term planning—perfect for fans looking for **4X base-building combat experiences** or deeper **multiplayer strategy progression**.

Conflict Mode begins with battles against an in-game bot, but upcoming expansions promise full online duels with friends. Alongside warfare, the update adds puzzles, blessings, and overall improvements, making this patch worth exploring whether you love combat or prefer peaceful development.

The shift toward a classic 4X conflict focus may surprise some, but it highlights Townsfolk’s rising popularity—especially now that it stretches onto PC. Players who enjoy the ‘exterminate’ side of the 4X formula will find plenty to dive into, while others can still appreciate the added puzzles, blessings, and overall polish.
