Believe it or not, the MMORPG Age of Conan has been around for 12 years now. Now free-to-play and rebranded as Unchained, Funcom has released one of the largest updates in years.

The Saga of Zath server, a unique limited-time Age of Conan progression server, will challenge players to achieve milestones for unique rewards.
Funcom has announced that Knut Avenstroup Haugen, the award-winning composer behind the Age of Conan soundtrack, is on board and will be producing new music for their upcoming game featuring the famous barbarian, Conan Exiles. A sample from the new soundtrack for Conan Exiles has been released, and can be listened to on Funcom’s YouTube …
AoC's soundtrack is certainly in top 3 of all the games I've played.
Game looks like shit tho.
