Stellaris 4.0 will give Paradox space strategy game a much-needed 2025 overhaul

As we near nine years of Stellaris, the sprawling Paradox space strategy game remains one of the best in the business. Despite maintaining a strong presence on Steam after all these years, thanks to a user rating of 88% from more than 124,000 reviews, it's starting to feel its age. To help it continue to grow alongside the likes of Crusader Kings 3 and Hearts of Iron 4, the developer has big plans for 2025. In a new blog, game director Stephen 'Eladrin' Muray announces Stellaris 4.0, which is set to land in May, around the time of the game's ninth birthday and alongside its next major expansion.
