These are times of unbridled progress.
Cybernetic augmentation has pushed the limits of physiology to the brink of eternal life thanks to the synthetic revolution. With shocking regularity, structures of incredible size and power spring up among the stars. Scientists strive to unravel the mysteries of creation, while machines compete for resources and prestige.
The age of technological wonders, rapid change, and unbridled ambition has begun… But from the ashes of the Fallen Empire, a previously unknown threat is about to rise, calling into question the very meaning of life.
Introducing The Machine Age, the new expansion for Stellaris from Paradox Development Studio!
A NEW CRISIS
A storm rages in space, the Fallen Empire is plunging into darkness, and a long-forgotten enemy is about to shake the foundations of power.
Cetana, the Synthetic Queen, promises to free the galaxy from suffering. Her powers are limitless, but her true goals are unclear. Will you side with her or try to destroy her plans? Prepare yourself for a previously unimaginable crisis and incredible battles…
A NEW PATH
We are all bound by limitations – the limitations of the body, time, and the physical laws of an indifferent universe. Who among us has never dreamed of throwing off these chains? Breaking out into a new, better reality?
But this requires previously impossible technologies. Calculations that no computer is capable of. Only the best of the best should work in the synaptic lab. If one of them fails, so be it. Breakthrough is impossible without sacrifice.
INTELLIGENT MACHINES
Your machine empires are no longer limited by the gestalt consciousness. What is your story? Are you just servants who suddenly gained consciousness? Will you succumb to the boundless pleasures of the material world? Grow your empires with 3 new Machine Ascension options.
NEW CYBERNETIC AND SYNTHETIC JET PORTRAITS
You will have access to two new sets of portraits that visually represent your cybernetic and synthetic development.
NEW SITUATIONS AND EXPANDED POWER EXCHANGE
Your society will face many new challenges as it comes to understanding the machine mind.Every decision you make is important as it will determine the fate of your empire after your rise, and it will never be the same.
3 NEW ORIGINS
- Cybernetic Creed – Your empire follows the path of a divine calling: the sacred fusion of body and cybernetics. Augmentation equals worship.
- Synthetic Fertility – A new genetic disease has rendered your once successful empire incapable of biological reproduction. Digital salvation seems the only way to avoid extinction.
- Arc Welders – Hailing from a space-starved world, a robotic society searches for resources on distant stars.
And on top of that, there are 6 new civilian models, 2 ship sets (cybernetic and machine), 2 new buildings (a powerful Dyson sphere and an arc furnace), new traits, and 7 brand new music tracks!
