Paradox Interactive Ends Content Development for Millennia
Paradox Interactive and C Prompt Games have announced the conclusion of content support for their turn-based 4X strategy game, Millennia. The game, often compared to the iconic Civilization series, has received its eighth and final patch, bringing an end to its active development phase.
The latest update primarily focuses on stability and polish. It addresses various bugs, corrects errors in several localizations, and improves support for game mods. Players interested in the full details of this concluding patch can find the complete notes on the official channels.
What This Means for Players
In their announcement, Paradox stated, “Sadly, with this patch, we come to the end of an era. We thank C Prompt for their hard work and support of the game.” While content development has ceased, Paradox confirmed that Millennia will not be removed from sale. However, the company will scale back its presence on the game's social media channels and other promotional platforms. Crucially, technical support for the game is expected to continue for the foreseeable future, ensuring players can still receive assistance with any issues.
Millennia tasks players with creating and guiding a nation through 10,000 years of human history. The game introduces unique mechanics such as 'Age of Change' and 'Age of Chaos,' where specific conditions can lead to alternative historical paths, offering new rules, technologies, and units. Conversely, strategic missteps can plunge a nation into periods of turmoil and destruction. Upon its release in March 2024 for PC, the game garnered a 'Commendable' rating from some critics and currently holds a 68% positive review score on Steam.
For players who haven't yet explored Millennia, the game remains available for purchase. It was recently featured in a seasonal sale on Steam, offering a significant discount on the base version. Despite the end of active content updates, the game's core experience, including its diverse historical ages and strategic depth, is still fully accessible to new and existing fans alike.
