What good are grand accomplishments and heroic deeds if no one sings of them after you have gone?

Crusader Kings III: Legends of the Dead adds new heroic gameplay, letting you stoke the flames of your legends into a towering bonfire, as the greatest scourge of the Middle Ages strikes down noble and commoner alike.

Prepare your realm and your soul to face the Final Enemy, and live a life worth singing about!

Greetings!

I’m Rageair, the Game Director for Crusader Kings III, and today I’m excited to present to you Chapter III - in this Dev Diary we’ll briefly go over the themes of each of the expansions that will make up the full package and take sneak a peek at their features!

Chapter III is definitely our most ambitious chapter yet, with a Core Expansion, Major Expansion, and an Event Pack (as well as an instant chapter unlock!) New ways of playing the game, and big, sweeping systems is the name of the game this year. Let's have a look, shall we!

Hello everybody! With Chapter III now available, we're releasing the instant unlock for the expansion pass, Couture of the Capets. We're also adding some models from our Content Creator Pack, North African Attire, as personal and court artifacts for Berber Cultures.

Existing save games should be fully compatible with this update, but any mods that add or alter clothing may need compatibility patches to function properly on this version of the game.




PC Update 1.11.5 Changelog​
  • Couture of the Capets - Added several new clothing items based on the fashions of High Medieval France.
  • North African Attire - Made some props available as personal/court artifacts for Berber cultures.

Empocariam said: Noticed on Steam that a new *Lifestyle* was being added with the Travel Event pack, that's awesome! Hope this space opens up more, (Raider and Adventuerer lifestyle?) and also maybe comes with an companying update to how XP is earned. A little boring now that you really only have 1 main lifestyle +% bonus. I really like +% bonus based on actual skills mod (so you get +12% Bonus to stewardship lifestyle if you have 12 stewardship, not just the stewardship education trait), that I think sadly has been abandoned.

sreckom92 said: I mean, I don't know why would they otherwise tease in this manner.

Mostly because I couldn't get approval to show off 7 pieces of unreleased artwork, but also because I think it's neat to go through the history of our previous chapters in the lead-up to Chapter III's reveal.

EDIT: Also, pretty much any of the artwork options would have given the game away immediately, and where's the fun in that?

We can hint more at what's coming via the text accompanying the images without outright spoiling the reveal than we ... Read more

Sure, you drive a hard bargain. Keep an eye on our socials and for featured posts on the forums so you don't miss it.

(Seriously though, we have our schedule for the year laid out already. We'll have substantial information to share about the content plan for 2024 Soon™)

Especially when I already have troops in the field.

I need my allies to participate in the war, please, not babysit my troops which might be a year away from being fully raised.

Thanks.

Let me know what they say.
