System requirements
Today, publisher Paradox Interactive and its in-house studio Paradox Development Studio’s newest expansion for Crusader Kings II, Monks and Mystics, launches today on PC, Mac, and Linux. And to celebrate, Paradox has released a new launch trailer
For those that don’t know: Crusader Kings II is a grand strategy game set in the Middle Ages that released back in February of 2012. The game has been Paradox’s second most successful release to date, after only Cities: Skylines, with over 1 million copies sold. The game is essentially the closet you can come to playing a true Game of Thrones style game, especially if you activate the Game of Thrones mod.
Monks and Mystics specifically is the game’s newest expansion. In the add-on, your ruler has the chance to join religious societies to improve their standing with both humankind and God (or the gods). You can join a monastic order and pursue traditional virtues and learning, or seek out the kind of knowledge only available to those skilled in alchemy and astrology. More of a cult guy? No problem, as with this expansion you can also join underground religious cults to weaken the church or to pray to elemental forces of darkness to unlock new and terrible powers.
Here’s an overview of the expansion via Paradox:
For centuries, the abbeys of Europe have had a sacred mission – to keep the flame of holy knowledge burning through an era of strife and to keep the secular powers on a righteous path. To the east, a mysterious new sect seeks out those who stray from the Prophet’s path, using not-so-gentle means to remind the impious of the power of God. And, in the shadows, alchemists and religious usurpers challenge the current order. Rumors of dark sacrifices are whispered in taverns throughout the known world.
