Dear Settlers,

Love is in the air, and that can only mean one thing: it's the start of our annual Valentine Event! We have new buildings to add to your home-island: featuring the relaxing Spa, Wonderous Romantic Residence and astute Lettersmith Tribute. Along with a new general, explorer, bundles and more - you're bound to fall in love with it all over again!

So don your most beautiful clothes, grab your flowers and head to that candle-light dinner: on the menu is our info-filled Dev Diary! Read every detail right here.

Happy settling!

Dear Settlers,

Update: we have just launched a 32-bit client on our TSO Testing website - please head on over to try it out if you're affected!

Since the last maintenance, it is possible that you encounter the error "Your client is not updated" while starting the game. If after trying the usual troubleshooting advice (clearing cache, reloading the game etc), you still receive this error, you may need to download & use the new SWF-file.

You can find detailed instructions and the download in our >forum<.

Sincerely,
BB_Trafffer

Dear Settlers,

Eventful weeks are behind us: The Christmas event is over, and 2021 has just begun!

In addition, the transitional download-client has been released and lets us continue settling until the new Unity version is available. In order to give you a first impression as soon as possible, we will shortly be giving you access to a Unity test server. There you can take a first look at an early version that is currently still in development. An exact date, including instructions for logging in, will follow in the coming days.

From February 25th, all old legacy accounts will automatically be prompted to migrate to Ubisoft Connect to ensure that you can continue playing in the future. You can already switch your account to Ubisoft Connect at any time - you can find a detailed step-by-step instruction HERE.

Last but not least, we will release more information in regard to Valentine's event in the coming days, so you know what to expect for your settlers during the day of love!

Happy Settling!
Your "The Settlers Online" Team

Dear settlers,

We know that some of you are used to play on macOS or 32-bit Windows systems and thus are not able to play currently. We are very sorry, but we won’t be able to roll-out the macOS version of the client.

For macOS users - have to point to the Unity version of “The Settlers Online” that will be available later, as planned. We are still working on proper support for 32-bit Windows and will let you know about our progress as soon as possible. Read the full news in our >forum<.

Sincerely,
your BB_Team

Dear Settlers,

Your townsfolk are gleefully singing carols under the sparkling Gift Christmas Tree, while your Settler families bask in the warming glow of the Christmas Market. It really is the perfect time of year. Just as you think it couldn't get any better, you notice some gifts under your Christmas tree from none other than BB_Santa himself!

Warm wishes for this festive season and happy holidays!
