The Victoria series is celebrating its 20th anniversary with a major update and a very colorful region pack for the latest game in Paradox’s celebrated strategy and simulation of the exciting century around the Victorian Age. Today sees the launch of Colossus of the South, an add-on full of new flavor for South America, especially the dramatic course of Brazilian politics in the era.
This release is paired with the official launch of the 1.5 update to Victoria 3, a major update to many game systems including a rework of the military system, adding Companies to national economies, new Laws and new diplomatic relations.
“Even though it was something of a cult hit, Victoria has always had a special place in the heart of our community and it presents unique challenges and opportunities for a designer,” says Martin Anward, game director for Victoria 3. “I am not sure anyone expected the series to still be a going concern 20 years on, but here we are, one year after the launch of Victoria 3, full of exciting ideas for the future.”
