La très jolie « simulation » de colonisation martienne de Paradox accueille ce week-end sa première extension majeure. DLC sur le thème de la compétition entre plusieurs colonies dont les sponsors ambitionnent chacun de devenir la première super-puissance sur la planète rouge.
Ce qui en jeu se traduira par de nouveaux évènements, véhicules et bâtiments, deux pays supplémentaires concourant à la colonisation de Mars (le Japon et le Brésil), et surtout des séries d’objectifs spécifiques à atteindre pour décrocher diverses récompenses sur le thème de la prospérité, du profit ou du progrès.
Au passage sachez que le jeu de base vient de bénéficier d’une nouvelle mise à jour, patch intitulé Gagarin, qui améliore l’interface et change pas mal de petites choses dans le gameplay (voir ce changelog). Les notes du patch pour Space Race se trouvant elles en parallèle par ici.
