HUGE UPDATE for Stellaris that Changes EVERYTHING
16What is Stellaris 4.0? What is Coming and How is Stellaris 4.0 a new game?!
Stellaris 4.0, known as the "Phoenix" update, is set to release in May 2025 to mark the game’s ninth anniversary. It introduces major performance improvements, particularly addressing late-game issues by reworking the population system. Pops will now be grouped into "Pop Groups," each representing 100 individuals, reducing the computational load. The trade system is also getting a significant overhaul, simplifying trade into a standard resource for better performance and easier management. New features like "Empire Focuses" will help guide players with strategic objectives in areas like Conquest, Exploration, and Development, making the game more accessible for newcomers. An "Empire Timeline" will keep track of significant events and decisions, allowing players to review their empire’s history and maintain continuity during long campaigns. Quality of life improvements include an updated ship designer, streamlined species modification, and easier colonization mechanics, all aimed at creating a more intuitive and enjoyable experience. Paradox Interactive is focusing on making Stellaris more engaging and accessible for both new and experienced players.
