Paradox releases DLC about managing the Russian Empire in Victoria 3 — Steam reviews are “Very Positive”

The first players were satisfied with the new content.

In early November, Paradox Interactive released the State and Revolution - Immersion Pack premium expansion for the grand strategy game Victoria 3. It focuses on the Russian Empire and adds content related to it.

Players are invited to lead the empire through an era of revolutionary change and political turmoil. Dynamic journal entries have been introduced, which will change depending on the stability of the Tsar’s rule. Achieving goals depends on the Tsar’s traits and the player’s actions.

Dissidents may interfere with the implementation of players’ plans. In Victoria 3, they can be dealt with by exiling them to Siberia. However, exile does not guarantee eternal security: after serving their sentence, an opponent may return and become even more dangerous.

The revolution mechanic also plays an important role in the DLC: depending on the style of governance, uprisings inspired by historical events (such as the Russian Revolution) can erupt in the country. In addition, narrative content will be available for Poland and “other nations dreaming of breaking away from the empire”.

Initial reviews for the State and Revolution - Immersion Pack expansion for Victoria 3 on Steam are “Very Positive”. Fans note that this time the DLC “looks good and the bugs aren’t crazy”.
