Paradox vient de présenter ce week-end non pas une mais deux nouvelles extensions pour son désormais fameux 4X. Qui va donc bénéficier d’une part d’un DLC allant principalement accentuer la dimension diplomatique du jeu, avec comme son nom l’évoque la possibilité de développer différents types de fédérations. Et d’autre part un troisième Species pack venant lui ajouter une nouvelle race de créatures constituées de roche vivante, les Lithoïdes.
De quoi repousser un peu plus encore les frontières des nombreuses possibilités ludiques offertes par ce joli jeu.
Pour plus d’informations sur Stellaris : Lithoids Species Pack, dont la sortie est prévue ce 24 octobre, voyez par là chez l’éditeur ou cette page sur Steam. Pour Stellaris : Federations, dont la date de sortie n’est pas encore connue, voyez celle-ci, ou par ici chez l’éditeur.

With the Stellaris: Federations expansion, players can extend their diplomatic dominion over the galaxy like never before. Use every trick in the book to gain an edge on friend and foe alike, with a host of new options to influence, manipulate, and dominate without firing a shot.
Federations features include:
– Expanded Federations: With expanded diplomacy capabilities, players can build up the internal cohesion of their Federations and unlock powerful rewards for all members. Whether you join a Trade League, Martial Alliance, or Hegemony, membership can be extremely advantageous.
– Galactic Community: Unite the space empires with a galactic senate that can vote on a wide range of resolutions to drive legislative agendas. For example, players can pass a resolution to increase commitments to collective defense or funnel profit towards wealthy elites. Members can also sanction those who defy the community, and enact a single galactic focus. Sway the senate to position yourself as a leader, trading favors and maneuvering, doing whatever it takes to gain influence among schemers.
– Origins: Each empire has a story that shapes its path. Give your civilization deeper roots with the new system of Origins. By choosing an Origin, players can flesh out their empire’s background and alter its starting conditions. Whether it’s Void Dwellers who have abandoned their homeworld to live in perpetual orbit, or a society that worships and protects a powerful Tree of Life, you can lay the groundwork wisely for the seeds of your empire.
– New Constructions: Construct glorious new projects for your empire like the Juggernaut, a massive mobile starbase that provides a moveable repair base even in enemy territory, or the Mega Shipyard, a new megastructure that can churn out fleets with incredible speed. Offering both tactical advantages and a good dose of shock and/or awe, these are sure to be an asset to any space empire.In addition, the Lithoids Species Pack features not only completely new gameplay but also a selection of new rock-based species portraits and ship models for players who take nothing for granite and are looking to unearth a more grounded civilization. Lithoids are a bigger and boulder species type made entirely of sapient rock who eat minerals for sustenance, are long-lived, and can colonize in almost any environment.
Players can look forward to trying out the entirely new Lithoid play style that focuses on mineral production, relentless colonization of even the most marginal worlds, and refusing to cede an inch of your empire – for sedimental value. The Lithoids Species Pack includes:
– Unique Mechanics for Lithoid Empires
– 15 New Portraits of Lithoids and 1 of a Lithoid robot
– New Mineral-based Ship Models
– New voice packFor more information about Stellaris, visit http://www.stellarisgame.com/
