Last week, Funcom gave IGN a look at the Chosain Province, which is a new zone that will appear in the upcoming Rise of the Godslayer expansion. As a follow-up, Funcom just provided the site with a sneak peek at the Northern Grasslands, which is the second area Age of Conan players will explore in the expansion after passing through the Great Wall. Here are some details from Lead Designer Joel Bylos:

"There is a mixture of serenity and war in the Northern Grasslands that, combined with the steppe-like environment, creates some unique experiences for the players. Faction gameplay is as important as ever in this region, the opposing groups will divide players as different quests become available."

For a closer look at the Northern Grasslands, check out the new screenshots we just added to our Age of Conan gallery.
