“Paradox has done it again and we couldn’t be happier,” says Steve Milburn, Director of Marketing for Strategy First Inc. “Every gamer that loved the Europa series and Hearts of Iron is going to want to dive right into Victoria.”
In Victoria, players control their nation from the early 19th century to the dawn of the 20th century, and try to progress into an industrialized Great Power by building up their Military Might, Industrialization Power, and finally National Prestige. Gameplay focuses on Diplomacy, Warfare, Economy & Industrialization, Colonization, Technological Development and Political Simulation.
Strategy First and Paradox have worked together in the past on award-winning titles such as the Europa Universalis series and Hearts of Iron and will soon be releasing Chariots of War and Legion Gold.
Victoria is scheduled for release in Q4 2003.
