11 Mounts are the traversal layer in Embers of the Uncrowned. The player receives their first mount as a reward for finishing the prologue, so no part of the campaign is spent on foot by necessity, and further mounts arrive through quests, challenges, and events rather than through a single grind. Nineteen mounts were available across the Steam Next Fest demo.

66 The Stable
77  
88 The Stable is one of the seven building types the player can construct in the settlement. Followers assigned to it handle registration and switching, which ties the traversal system into the same lord-and-retainers loop as gear enhancement at the Forge and elixir research at the Magic Laboratory. A player who never invests in the Stable still rides; a player who does gets an organised collection.

1010 Mounts Named in the Demo
1111  
1212 Eleven of the nineteen demo mounts were named in NEXON event listings. They are cosmetic variants rather than a stat ladder, and no speed, stamina, or combat figures have been published for any of them. All demo rewards were reset before launch, so the list below records what appeared rather than what a player currently owns.

17+In Development

19+NEXON has kept publishing design previews since the demo closed. On August 13, 2026 the team showed a mount still in development, describing it as a steed like the stars in the night sky and saying it is being prepared for the day it will carry the player and take flight. The artwork released with the post shows a horned steed with large feathered wings and ornate gold-trimmed barding, standing in a drift of pale light.

23+The post carries the studio's standard note that contents are subject to change based on development progress, so neither the design nor the flight it hints at should be read as final. No name, acquisition route, or release window has been given for it, and NEXON has not said whether flight will be a general mount capability or a property of individual mounts.

1725 Monetization
1826  
1927 Mounts sit on the cosmetic side of the monetization line NEXON has drawn. The team has committed that nothing sold will affect character stats, and every demo mount was awarded for playing rather than paying. How mounts are priced or bundled at launch has not been announced.
