Paradox Interactive has unveiled its roadmap for Crusader Kings III's Chapter IV, detailing a year-long rollout of Asian-themed expansions with innovative gameplay mechanics throughout 2025.
The content journey began with the Crowns of the World cosmetic pack, featuring six royal headpieces, four distinct hairstyles, and two beard designs for deeper character customization.
On April 28, the Khans of the Steppe DLC will empower players to lead Mongol hordes across the steppes, executing grand conquests as the fearsome Great Khan.
The mid-year Coronations expansion (Q3 2025) introduces elaborate crowning ceremonies - majestic occasions where rulers consolidate power through lavish celebrations and binding oaths, complemented by enhanced political dynamics with advisors and vassals.
Chapter IV culminates with the groundbreaking All Under Heaven expansion, reconstructing East Asia in unprecedented detail - from Imperial China to the Japanese archipelago and Indonesian islands - offering the grandest strategic canvas yet.
Between major releases, Paradox will deploy system refinements and AI improvements, with developers hosting a community Q&A on March 26 to gather player insights for future development.
