We've just announced the next DLC for Old World - Wrath of Gods. Coming March 3, 2025. Lead the faithful and cower in the face of capricious deities through new map mechanics, a new scenario, a new faction, and more!
Headlining the DLC is the new Wrath of Gods scenario, where players must lead their nation while heeding the ever-increasing (and conflicting) demands of their nation’s pantheon. It will be impossible to keep every deity happy, so some will end up unleashing one of nine new calamities onto the player’s lands, while others will bestow blessings.
Here's what else you need to know:
- Calamities work in the base game as well (but in a more grounded context without actual gods) and come with new visual and environmental effects. Heavy flooding can, for example, change land tiles into water, while certain disasters can change the resources a tile has to offer, providing a silver lining even amidst great devastation.
- Aksum will be introduced as a new playable nation, known for dominating the Horn of Africa and the Red Sea. It comes with five dynasties headed by legendary figures from the nation’s past, two unique units, nation-specific events, and more!
- New map scripts, including one called “The Tumbling Mountain,” which spawns an impassable mountain range that separates players for a specified time before crumbling into navigable terrain.
- Over 200 new events, evocative new art, 8 new character traits, and 26 new projects.
Empires rise and fall through military might, political aptitude, and diplomatic savvy – but all know to fear, above all, the wrath of the gods. Old World - Wrath of Gods will release on March 3, 2025.
