Realpolitiks 3 | First Hotfix is Live & Early Access Roadmap Sneak Peek
Greetings, fellow leaders!
Realpolitiks 3: Earth and Beyond has been in Early Access for a little over a day now, and thanks to your feedback, we've already prepared a patch fixing various bugs, improving the optimization, adding quality of life features and overall making parts of the game clearer to understand - the full Change Log can be found below. We would recommend starting a new campaign in order to make sure all fixes are applied properly and that you get the best possible gameplay experience.
Please continue giving us your feedback here in the comments, in the Steam discussions, or join the Realpolitiks HQ Discord - we need your input in order to make this the best grand strategy experience for you!
We are already working on a next patch, as we would like to release hotfixes similar to this one about once a week; while these are a priority right now and our focus is on fixing any technical issues and making the current content playable as smoothly as possible for you, we have plans for bigger updates throughout the Early Access period as well. Those will bring new features that will give you an even wider variety of tools for ruling your country, the world and the Solar system. Take a peek at some of the things the first two Content Updates will bring:
We would also like to address one significant point many of you have raised: Realpolitiks 3 is not designed to accurately simulate existing countries or their cultures. Instead, it is focused on providing a fun gameplay experience, letting you lead a country in a modern setting and rule it however you choose. To keep each playthrough fresh, countries are partially randomized at the start of every campaign. While borders, political systems, and overall power stay the same, the starting stats and policies will be different each time, providing new challenges and opportunities. We have included this clarification at the start of the game and in its store description - it was never our intention to create any different expectations.
And now, without further ado, the full Change Log of our first Hotfix:
Happy Strategizing!
