Hint about a future DLC?

[Titan79]

Sorry if I may have missed something (didn't play much CK2 in the last period) but, while checking some of the new sounds introduced by 2.6.1, I noticed these files:

Naval_Battle_Background.wav
Naval_Battle_Splash_01.wav
Naval_Battle_Splash_02.wav
Naval_Battle_Splash_03.wav
Naval_Battle_Sword_01.wav
Naval_Battle_Sword_02.wav
Naval_Battle_Sword_03.wav
Naval_Battle_Sword_04.wav
Naval_Battle_Sword_05.wav

Prodromes of a possible new DLC, or at least of the introduction of naval combat...?

I got it!

New <secret DLC> is going to be about Water Bears. Naval combat in the arctic between competing Polar Bear Merchant Republics! Pre-order bonus will give those who own Stellaris a brand new Anthropoid race to play as (Tardigrade-like)

But, jokes apart, were those files already in before?

Checking more closely, they seem to have always been there (at least this is what I gather from their date of creation inside my CK2 folder), yet I noticed them only today.

Oh well, maybe just an oversight on my part.

These were already in 1.06b and probably before.

No dolphin submarines guys.

Fair enough then, sorry all about the false alarm.

Good job you two. I think he fell for it.
