New “Conquest of Paradise” Expansion Adds Randomized American Continent, Colonial Nations, and Native American Nations to Empire-building Game

NEW YORK – November 4, 2013 – Paradox Interactive, a publisher of games that never settles down, today revealed details on the first expansion to Europa Universalis IV, the award-winning empire building game developed by Paradox Development Studio for Windows, Mac, and Linux. Are you ready to explore a brave new world? The new expansion, Europa Universalis IV: Conquest of Paradise, allows you to send your ships off to the west to discover a new world, unlike any you’ve seen before. For the first time ever in a Paradox Development Studio game, players are given the chance to discover a completely randomized American continent, where no playthrough will ever be the same.

Europa Universalis IV: Conquest of Paradise makes it possible for you to play as a Native American nation and master the federation mechanics, as well as unique national ideas, buildings and events. You may also take command of a Colonial Nation, declare colonial war, or even strive for liberty from your motherland.

Europa Universalis IV is the critically acclaimed strategy game that allows players to tell their own stories, determining the course of international events as they see fit. Whether they’re growing a sprawling nation across the sea to the shores of a new world, or trying to survive an invasion by overseas explorers, Europa Universalis IV offers enough options to satisfy colonialists and imperialists alike.

For the first time in Paradox games, there will be custom maps.

 

[Dragoon.x]

I see a lot of thought went selecting meaningful screenshots.

 

[Galaahd]

The only bad thing is Columbus with a spanish name, but otherwise it's cool.

The landmass will be randomised or just the nations?

[K.Kingen]

I literally jizzed my pants. I guess won't start a new game until this gets released .

 

[I Killed Kenny]

SHIiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit

Holy crap, why didn't I discover Paradox strategy games earlier!! I only found them a month ago and have been hooked and have loved every move they have made. $150 later and I am completely willing to throw another $150 at them for their awesome content.
Randomized America on top of a more robust native system? That is even better then what I was thinking for a native america expansion. Too freaking cool!! Keep it up Paradox. You are definitely satisfying us gamers who crave more depth and realism when most of the industry has been headed in the opposite direction for over a decade.

Or hopefully at least not until you go change your clothes. (Though I'm hoping this is a mistaken use of the word literally )

I see a lot of thought went selecting meaningful screenshots.

I would have liked to see some sample randomized new world landmasses.

Note, the native americans are still sieging with some cannons they do not possess. Not a biggie, but definitely an immersion breaker.

It would be surprising fun if there is an scenario that some native European discover some Americans moving tanks and flying F22 ....
