Also, a reminder to turn off your mods until they've been updated to 3.6! Or you can roll back to 3.5.3 by right-clicking Stellaris, Properties, Betas Tab, and choose 3.5.3 from the dropdown.

If you find a bug or other issue with 3.6, please report it on the bug report forums.[forum.paradoxplaza.com]

Thanks for playing Stellaris, and we hope that you enjoy these new additions to the game as much as we've enjoyed bringing them to you!

Known Issue: We have become aware of some reports of the launcher incorrectly stating that DLC installs are corrupted. This is a purely visual bug, and we are currently investigating a fix.

If you are experiencing issues with loading saves that you could previously load, right click Stellaris, go to Properties, Local Files, and Verify Game Files.

Then disable all of your mods, and try to load the game again. If the issue persists, please submit a bug report here: https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/forums/stellaris-bug-reports.941/
