Paradox Interactive has unveiled Crusader Kings III: Roads to Power, an upcoming expansion for its critically acclaimed medieval strategy game, and one of the best medieval games ever made. Roads to Power thrusts players into the heart of the Byzantine Empire, a once-mighty world power grappling to reclaim its former glory.
Byzantine Legacy presents a unique challenge: restore the Byzantine Empire to its former brilliance. Players will navigate a realm fraught with intrigue, leveraging shrewd diplomacy, cunning strategy, and perhaps a touch of ruthlessness to secure their dominance.
The expansion introduces a suite of innovative mechanics designed to enrich the Crusader Kings III experience:
- Administrative Government: A novel system for managing the Byzantine Empire’s vast territories that steps away from traditional feudal politics.
- Family Estate: Run and manage a powerful Family Estate, the seat of your House’s power, even when you hold no other land.
- Influence System: Rise through the ranks of the Byzantine bureaucracy with strategic manoeuvring and cunning.
- Adventurous Life: Your character will be free to roam the map, without being attached to any realm or holding. This is surely innovative for the game.
- Successor Selection: Shape the empire’s future by leveraging your power to pick your heir, and even go as far as to co-rule the empire.
Crusader Kings III: Roads to Power will be released on the 24th of September, 2024.
