Crusader Kings II: Sword of Islam expansion released today!

[Regina]

Paradox Interactive and Paradox Development Studio have today released Crusader Kings II: Sword of Islam, the first expansion for the universally lauded strategy / RPG game Crusader Kings II, available for both PC and Mac!

Thought keeping an eye on one wife was bad? With the release of the Crusader Kings II: Sword of Islam expansion, this scheming strategy RPG will allow players to command Muslim nations, opening up a world of polygamous problems, new laws, traits, titles and over 100 new events, as well as a flavorful Islam-inspired interface. Experience the Crusades from the other side. Combat decadence within your own dynasty. And solve problems arising in your very own harem. Or just start panicking and invade France. Your call.

Crusader Kings II: Sword of Islam enables players to play as any Muslim ruler across the great dynasties including the Ottoman and Mamluk empires. These brand new gameplay mechanics reflect the distinctive traits of the great rulers and empires of the time, creating an entirely new experience for players and introducing another layer of richness to one of the finest strategy games of recent years.

A free update as well as additional downloadable content will also be released alongside the expansion, which introduces improved combat mechanics, numerous new events, traits and decisions to the main game.
Crusader Kings II: Sword of Islam expansion launches today on leading digital distribution platforms with a recommended retail price of $9.99/€9.99. $9.99 USD.

I always found people who want to be "liked" on FaceBook to be a bit desperate.
Also, people who encourage others to stalk them has to have issues.

I'll do both because you asked me, and I'm impressionable.

Hahaha, well we just started our facebook for us devs behind CK, HOI, EU, Vicky & Sengoku. Is it so wrong to want to get a little Like?

Steam download complete, but the version number is still 1.05g...and no SoI DLC in steam store

[Ekstrakt]

1 hour until Steam updates it's Store.
And wow, many thanks to Paradox and their way of delivering DLC. Making it an option if you want it or not, and at the same time supporting the ones who've already bought the game through free, major patches. You have my bow, Paradox!

You can activate it from the ingame store when you bought the expansion on Gamersgate!

[beatoangelico]

a little observation...on gamersgate the dlc costs 9999 blue coins, which is roghly 8 €, while on steam the price is I guess 10 €

[Sathariel]

WOW, I`m not even playing CK2 much and I wasn't that interested in the Sword of Islam's either, but then I noticed it's only £8, so I didn't hesitate long . Thanks for releasing it so cheap .

[Kolonel]

One wonders: does this expansion come with its own forum icon?
