The last content pack to hit Europa Universalis IV was Third Rome back in June. Before that, Mandate of Heaven in April. Only one of those counted as an expansion pack, so another is due very soon. Cradle of Civilization sounds very serious indeed.

Fending off defeat or clutching victory with religion alone hasn't been an experience most Civilizations fans speak fondly of since Civilization V back in 2010. Making a reappearance in the sequel - Civilization VI - that struggled to meet player expectation, it's wonky utilisation didn't help matters. But Firaxes are still working on post-release patches, and Religion is the next to get a rework.

Driftland: The Magic Revival is a 4X Strategy that's being developed by Star Drifters and is set to be released for the PC sometime this year.

Stardock may have gone through most of their life offering crazy Windows add-ons like Rocket Dock and Windows Blinds; but their game division is still a major focus for them. It's about to release Galactic Civilizations III: Crusade.

Rattling off a bunch of popular 4X and RTS titles, the Galactic Civilizations guys are back to explain how its upcoming expansion - Crusades - will attempt to fix the fourth X found in the genre.
