Publisher Paradox Interactive today announced that the Stellaris: Infernals Species Pack has locked in its release date to late November 2025, wrapping up a fairly eventful year, in terms of content, for the sci-fi grand strategy game.
The final piece of the Season 9 puzzle, Stellaris: Infernals leads with a fiery new player crisis path that allows us more or less literally set fire to the galaxy.
Stellaris: Infernals Species Pack Release Date
From there, the species pack adds two new origins alongside volcanic worlds, described as a whole new type of planet that comes with dedicated districts, events, and archaeological sites.
New civics, ships, and portraits alongside other mysterious but just-as-searing tidbits are also on the way. Below, you’ll find the DLC’s key features, as described by the publisher in an emailed press release.
Player Crisis Path:
- Burning Worlds are where you thrive, so you might as well be the spark that sets the galaxy on fire.
Origins:
- Cosmic Dawn: Your species roamed the stars in the early days of our galaxy when planets were just molten globes. As they cooled down, your species hid under the surface of your planet until recent volcanic activity freed some of you. Free your species by digging through your home planet and look for other survivors through the stars.
- Red Giant: The very star that allowed life on your planet is now becoming a threat, expanding and causing planets in your system to overheat. You need to investigate what is causing this change. Can you stop it, or reverse it? Or would you embrace the change, seeking opportunity in adversity?
Volcanic Worlds:
- A whole new type of planet, with its own districts, events, and archaeological sites.
Stellaris: Infernals Species Pack has locked in its release date to November 25, 2025, when it becomes available as a separate purchase for the price of $12.99/€12.99/£10.99 or your regional equivalent.
It is, of course, also included in the Stellaris: Season 9 Expansion Pass and will be unlocked for all owners on the same date.
