Revolution on Gamersgate.com

New York, USA (June 7, 2006) - Paradox Interactive announced today that they are working on an expansion to their history simulation, "Victoria - An Empire Under the Sun". The expansion will be available exclusively through the online retailer Gamersgate.com. "Victoria - Revolutions" is scheduled for a release in August 2006, at $9.99/9.99.

Upon its release, "Victoria - An Empire Under the Sun" was hailed by some critics as the ultimate World Domination and Empire-Building simulation. The new expansion will be in a similar vein while offering several new and exciting features. Among other things, players will be able to link this game to other Paradox games, thus extending the gameplay for both!

"This is the first time we release one of our titles exclusively on Gamersgate.com," said Susana Meza, Marketing and PR Director of Paradox Interactive. "This expansion has been on many of our fans' wish lists for a long time, and by releasing it solely via download, we can ensure it reaches them as soon as the production team has finished the code."

New features of "Victoria - Revolutions" include:

* 15 extra years of game play. Lead your nation through the challenging interwar period!
* An expanded tech tree to cover the interwar period, including aircrafts and carriers.
* A DOOMSDAY converter which allows players to continue their game in "Hearts of Iron 2: Doomsday".
* A revamped election and politics system, adding a new level of realism to the game.
* An overhauled military system, which will be linked with the player's policy decisions.
* A new economic system that brings more realism through various economic models.
