With a major Victoria 3 update continuing the Paradox grand strategy game's redemption arc, now is a good time to check in on how it's progressed. Initially launching to a mixed reception due to absent elements such as warfare that long-time series players craved, it's seen plenty of evolution in the two years since. As Victoria 3 patch 1.8 delivers another big upgrade to its systems with an overhaul to cultural acceptance and discrimination, you can give it a try for free on Steam - and snag it cheap to keep if you like it.
