Crusader Kings III: Mongols & Asia Expansion

Paradox Interactive has unveiled its ambitious plans for Crusader Kings III in 2025, launching Chapter IV: an expansive journey into Asia. This chapter introduces new mechanics and regions, significantly expanding the game's scope.

The recently released Crowns of the World cosmetic DLC is a stylish appetizer, offering six crowns, four hairstyles, and two beards to personalize your rulers.

The main course arrives on April 28th with Khans of the Steppe, the first major DLC. Players will lead nomadic Mongol hordes, conquering lands and establishing dominance across vast territories as the Great Khan.

Next, Coronations (releasing in Q3 2025) introduces a significant ceremonial mechanic. Legitimize your reign through grand coronation events, complete with extravagant festivities, solemn vows, and crucial decisions shaping your kingdom's future. New advisor and vassal events will enrich political interactions, adding depth to royal succession.

The grand finale, All Under Heaven, is a massive expansion arriving later in 2025. This DLC unveils a fully realized East Asian map, meticulously detailing China, Korea, Japan, and the Indonesian islands. Prepare for a vast new landscape to explore and conquer.

Between these major releases, Paradox will continue to refine Crusader Kings III with patches focusing on game systems and AI improvements. The developers actively encourage player feedback, with the next Q&A session scheduled for March 26th.
