19 October 2021 - STOCKHOLM - The gold of Zimbabwe. The ivory of Central Africa. The great city of Timbuktu. The temples of Ethiopia. Africa is the birthplace of humanity and a land of untold wealth and variety. Rediscover and rewrite the history of the continent in a new immersion pack for Europa Universalis IV, coming 11 November 2021. It will be available for the suggested retail price of $9.99/£7.19 / € 9.99.

In Europa Universalis IV: Origins, new African missions add greater variety and new goals for some of Africa’s most powerful and interesting nations. The fading giant of Mali, the holy hills of Ethiopia and the African trade centers of the Indian Ocean are given new depth and richer context.


The Europa Universalis IV: Origins immersion pack adds:

  • Jewish Religion: The Ethiopian Jews of Beta Israel are included, and Jewish nations can choose from nine religious characteristics to accentuate their national strengths, with new flavor events.
  • Missions for Mali: Halt the decline of West Africa’s greatest medieval empire and reassert control of former vassals.
  • Missions for Songhai: Develop your provinces and claim the mantles of Mali and Timbuktu as the new rising power.
  • Missions for Kongo: Unite the peoples of the Congo River and confront the growing European threat.
  • Missions for Ethiopia: Ensure religious unity and prestige in the Kingdom of Solomon while unifying the nations of the African Horn. Also adds the noble Ç̌äwa regiments.
  • Missions for Ajuuraan: Control Indian Ocean trade and bring water to your desert provinces.
  • Missions for Kilwa: Focus on naval economic power, establishing a colonial empire across the seas.
  • Missions for Mutapa: Build on the legacy of the founders of Great Zimbabwe and exploit the riches of South Africa to dominate trade.
  • Minor Mission Additions: New mission options for Jolof, Mossi, Hausa, Oyo and Adal.
  • New Regional Mission Trees: New Missions for minor powers in Central, East and West Africa, and the African Horn, as well as new estate privileges for many nations and regions.
  • New Army Sprites: 4 new army sprites each for Congo, Great Lakes, Southern Africa and Bantu nations
  • Two New Missionary models: African Coptic and African Fetishist missionary animations added.
  • New Music: 12 minutes of new West African themed music, and 12 minutes of new East African themed music.

As usual, the release of Europa Universalis IV: Origins will be accompanied by a major update, free for all EU4 players.

Three DDs, so Jewish stuff, achievements and patch notes still to go, I guess.

Hoping for a lot of achievements after a disappointing amount with Leviathan :p

What. Let me see if I got it right. All this pack adds is 7 mission trees, 5 small mission trees, 4 regional small trees, a unit pack, OST and a mechanic for the most irrelevant religion in the base game.

10 Dollars for this? Really?

If we had sold it seperately like a few years ago.

2 music packs.. 1.99$ x 2
1 unit pack 1.99$
new mechanics + missions.. 5.99$

total price: 11.98$

These days we bundle and reduce the price instead.

tbf, you're also paying for the last ~6 months of their development time which includes the free patch for every player that is not buying the dlc. You don't need to buy it, it's only an immersion pack. If that doesn't fit your "fun per dollar" expectation then don't get it and enjoy the free patch.

Really excited for this but is there any plan to add a system for the boer republic or on map trade companies (British India) so the end game can line up with Victoria?
