Stellaris - Apocalypse Europe Steam CD Key
Stellaris Apocalypse is the second major expansion pack released from the grand strategy game Stellaris. In this expansion, the player gets forces of destruction such as ion cannons mounted on starbases, Titan-class starships, a new faction in the galaxy, and the Colossus, a starship capable of decimating entire planets. The Apocalypse expansion pack comes with the Cherryh 2.0 patch, which introduced several new elements to the gameplay and reworked some of its components.
Expansion Features
Stellaris: Apocalypse new content is split between the expansion pack itself and the changes made in patch 2.0. The expansion pack introduces four major elements to the base game, the first and most important of which are certainly the Colossus-class spaceships. These dreadnoughts appear late in the game and for good reason. Using the Colossus requires the player to earn the appropriate Ascension perk. The ship has one slot for weapons of mass destruction. The player can choose from different types of weapons. Each has a different effect, from killing or assimilating species, to completely destroying life on a planet or even annihilating it completely.
Other new features include Titan-class ships, large, heavily armed units that provide high bonuses to units serving under them, ion cannons capable of reaching the other end of the system, and a new faction of Marauders, appearing on the outskirts of the galaxy, from which the player can recruit mercenaries.
Patch contents
Patch 2.0 introduced in Stellaris: Apocalypse changes some game mechanics. These changes are quite significant and may affect the player's gameplay strategy. Fleets now have a size limit, and a Force Disparity Combat Bonus is awarded when a smaller fleet fights a larger fleet. FTL (Faster-than-light) travel has been modified, focusing primarily on hyperplanes, and highlight travel has been sped up to compensate for this. Several minor and major changes have been made in this expansion that make the layer carefully plan and test the limits of what it can and cannot do.
Reception
Stellaris: Apocalypse received a positive reception from critics. Reviewers praised the expansion's ambitious changes, some of which completely transformed the gameplay experience. The new content added by the expansion was also praised as a step in the right direction towards making Stellaris the ultimate galactic sandbox.
