Funcom announced today that seven-day free trials have returned to the Age of Conan Web site. If you've been wanting to try out this MMO but have been hesitant to purchase the game, now's your chance to enter the Hyborian Age with no strings attached . Trial accounts do have some restrictions on them, and "the most noticeable are inability to trade with others, restrictions to use public channels, inability to post on forums and inability to send in-game mail."

The Age of Conan team has implemented numerous changes to the game since it launched, and you can view them all on the updates page. Also, check out our recent interview with Executive Producer Craig Morrison and Lead Expansion Designer Joel Bylos for information on Rise of the Godslayer, the game's upcoming first expansion.
