Paradox Interactive, renowned for stellar titles like Stellaris and Crusader Kings 3, is gearing up to unveil an "ambitious" new project next week. The Swedish developer, which has been crafting strategy games for 25 years that span from the grandeur of the Roman Empire to the vastness of space, is set to introduce what they call "the next major title in the genre."
Codenamed "Caesar," this mysterious new game has been a topic of discussion on Paradox's forums through a series of "Tinto Talks" developer diaries. These diaries have not only shared feature ideas, key game systems, and historical research but also actively sought community feedback. Now, Paradox is ready to "reveal Caesar to the world."
The latest "Tinto Talks," named after the Barcelona-based Studio Tinto developing the game, delved into the mechanics of Protestant religions and the "War of Religions," a pivotal conflict involving Western Christian confessions. This was part of their "entirely super-top-secret game with the codename Project Caesar."
Hints about the game's connection to the Europa Universalis series have been dropped, especially with the announcement that the reveal video will premiere on the official Europa Universalis YouTube channel. While nothing is confirmed, fans are buzzing with speculation that this might be a new entry in the beloved series.
On Reddit, one player reminded others, "Dev Diaries haven't called it EU5 but everything we have been teased thus far heavily implies it." Another fan, responding to the channel announcement, teased, "There might've been clues along the way huh." A third user explained, "I mean, it was an open secret for over a year thanks to the Tinto Talks Threads on Paradox forums."
To uncover the truth behind the rumors, mark your calendars for May 8, 2025, at 9am PDT (12pm EDT, 5pm UK time) and tune into Paradox's video to witness "a new era for grand strategy."
IGN previously gave high praise to the last Europa Universalis game, awarding it an 8.9/10 in their Europa Universalis 4 review, commending it for bringing "accessibility and flexibility to the strategy series without compromising its complexity."
