Paradox Studios’ recently released excellent grand strategy game, Europa Universalis IV, is getting a massive free update in the form of a patch today, available across Windows, Linux, and Mac OS. The new update implements hundreds of fixes to minor issues in the game, includes balance adjustments, support for windowed fullscreen, new idea groups for more than 20 nations, and a “suggest demands” button which will automatically populate a peace offer that the AI will accept when trying to end a war.
Two new DLC packs have also been issued, in addition- American Dream, and National Monuments II. The former adds the ability to re-enact the American Revolution in game, while the latter adds several iconic landmarks around the world.
But the updates for the game don’t just stop at that, since a brand new strategy guide for the game will also be available starting today, to help newcomers with the intricacies and nuances of Europa Universalis’ almost intimidatingly deep gameplay systems.
