The universe can be a dangerous place at the best of times, especially in Galactic Civilizations III. Stardock announced a new expansion pack that's set to release in Spring 2018 titled Intrigue. This latest piece of DLC will focus on politics and the formation of governments, alliances, and commonwealths.
You won't just be able to form governments with the upcoming DLC installed. Stardock is also throwing in a Galactic Market for buying and selling resources, as well as new technologies, planetary improvements, weapons, and more. There's also the excellent Galactic News Network (GNN) that keeps you up-to-date with happenings across the universe.
Intrigue for Galactic Civilizations III will land in Spring 2018. More details on the upcoming DLC can be found on Steam.
