STOCKHOLM - 17 October 2023 - The great nations of the East look back on better days. Constantinople is no longer the center of a mighty empire. In Cairo, the Mamluks struggle to keep pace with an ascendant power to the north. And, in the plains and mountains of Persia, the Iranian people are divided among many petty kings. Reclaim the mantle of empire and restore your nation to greatness in King of Kings, a new Immersion Pack for Europa Universalis IV.

On November 06, join thousands of other armchair emperors in rewriting the history of Persia, the Mamluk Sultanate, the Byzantine Empire and many other minor nations. Paradox Interactive’s flagship grand strategy game about the early modern world adds even more historical flavor in King of Kings, a pack devoted to the historic non-Ottoman powers between the Eastern Mediterranean and India. With hundreds of new missions and dozens of other changes, King of Kings is a substantial addition to Europa Universalis IV, which recently celebrated its tenth anniversary since release.
