Hey everyone, welcome to another Developer Diary! Before we get to the content, we would like to let you know that we have gathered a lot of feedback regarding last week’s Diary from various sources, and are extremely happy that the new Central European content generated feedback and positivity! Despite that, there have been some concerns and requests, so before we move on, let’s take a look at what has changed since then, thanks to this feedback:

• Hungary is now a (re)formable nation for tags with Hungarian or Transylvanian primary cultures.
  
• Hungarian conquest missions no longer require Hungary to be an independent nation, which should make them a much more attractive subject.
  
• The 'Serbian Despotate' Tier 1 government reform now grants access to the Order of the Dragon.
  
• We have added the 'Bohemian Commonwealth' optional cosmetic country rename as a reward of the namesake mission.
  
• The decision to form...

With that aside, another announcement to let you know that we’ve just released another community music back - EUIV: Sounds from the Community: Kairi Soundtrack Part III.

Greetings everyone! It’s been a while since the last Europa Universalis IV Developer Diary, but we didn’t want to end the year without reaching out one more time, in order to share with you a retrospective view not only of 1.36 and EUIV: King of Kings after its release, but of what has happened to EUIV in 2023 as a whole. Let’s get started!

We've just reworked much of our bundles on Steam - meaning lower prices and more relevant content.

Almost all of our existing offerings have been streamlined, consolidated, or revamped to be more thematically consistent.

The most significant changes have been to the Ultimate Bundle and Starter Pack (now the Starter Edition), which have seen much of their content rearranged; for example, the Ultimate Bundle has had cosmetic packs removed and repackaged into the new Prestige Collection. These bundles are therefore now better organised (and cheaper!):

• Starter Pack (US$89.96) → now Starter Edition (US$49.99)

A package specifically curated to give players a strong starting point with EUIV. Includes the base game, a content pack, and two major expansion packs that add greater depth and more strategic options to the game.

Build New Empires on Old Ground in EU4: King of Kings

As the Early Modern Age dawns, rising empires collide against faded glories. The divided lands of Persia hold great promise for any who can unite them. The imperial seat of Constantinople rules only the rump of a once mighty empire. The wealth of Egypt makes the Mamluk Sultanate an attractive target for enemies. Rise to the challenge of the ages in King of Kings, a new Immersion Pack for Europa Universalis IV, available now.

Europa Universalis IV: King of Kings adds even more historical flavor and alternate historical possibilities to Paradox’s celebrated grand strategy game, with a specific focus on the kingdoms and empires that challenged the Ottoman Empire in Asia and Africa. With hundreds of new missions and dozens of other changes, King of Kings is a substantial addition to Europa Universalis IV, a game that has been challenging amateur strategists and history buffs for over a decade.

Hello everyone! Our latest EU4 mod spotlight features Beyond the Cape.

Today we release the free 10th Anniversary Community Music Pack for EUIV!
We’re very proud to have collaborated with Utopia Music[camiel.co.nz] - known to many of you as the brainchild of Runite Drill - and producer George Hammond, to release these community favourites directly through the game as DLC.

Utopia/Runite’s passionate work over the years has become a recognisable staple of EUIV’s modding community, and stands as testament to the talent and dedication of our community. This music pack is but one representation of the thriving enthusiasm that has been built around and within the game, and all the people it has brought together. Thank you.

Ten iconic tunes have been remastered for this pack, featuring tracks from Anbennar, Extended Timeline, Ante Bellum & more. They’ll be available via your store of choice ... Read more

Europa Universalis IV is turning 10 this month, and we’re celebrating with some small community activities! Please note that there will be no major gameplay updates, but you can expect some giveaways and other exciting things.

Today for instance, we want to announce that we now have an official EU IV Displate store[pdxint.at]! For those inclined towards some classy merch, these high quality metal posters featuring iconic EUIV art can now finally be yours. (is it truly a battle station without paintings of history’s most famous leaders?)

Check it out here: https://pdxint.at/3qbFXVG

We are also giving away 9 free EUIV Displate posts across our ... Read more

Greetings!

Save games should hopefully be unaffected - but if you have the possibility to start a new game that is always recommended.

As always, please report any issues in our bug report forum[forum.paradoxplaza.com] or submit a support ticket[support.paradoxplaza.com]. Thank you!
