New York, NY (June 7, 2006) - Paradox Interactive announced today that
they are working on an expansion to Victoria – An Empire Under the Sun, Victoria
– Revolutions. The expansion is scheduled for a release in August 2006 for

From Paradox Interactive:
Upon its release, “Victoria – An Empire Under the Sun” was hailed by some
critics as the ultimate World Domination and Empire-Building simulation. The new
expansion will be in a similar vein while offering several new and exciting
features. Among other things, players will be able to link this game to other
Paradox games, thus extending the gameplay for both!
“This is the first time we release one of our titles exclusively on
Gamersgate.com,” said Susana Meza, Marketing and PR Director of Paradox
Interactive. “This expansion has been on many of our fans’ wish lists for a long
time, and by releasing it solely via download, we can ensure it reaches them as
soon as the production team has finished the code.”
New features of “Victoria – Revolutions” include:
- 15 extra years of game play. Lead your nation through the challenging
interwar period!
- An expanded tech tree to cover the interwar period, including aircrafts
and carriers.
- A DOOMSDAY converter which allows players to continue their game in
“Hearts of Iron 2: Doomsday”.
- A revamped election and politics system, adding a new level of realism to
the game.
- An overhauled military system, which will be linked with the player’s
policy decisions.
- A new economic system that brings more realism through various economic
models.
