Paradox Interactive announces Cosmic Storms, the new mechanical expansion for its sci-fi strategy game Stellaris. This expansion will launch on September 10, 2024 on PC. It adds and develops Cosmic Storms, phenomena stronger than civilizations and empires sweeping through the galaxy. To wield the mightiest forces in the universe is to court peril; while some perceive them as dire threats, others grasp them as keys to ascendancy or tools to vanquish their foes.

The Cosmic Storms Stellaris Expansion New Features as described by the developers:

  • NEW STORMS: This expansion adds 8 types of Cosmic Storms (Electric, Particle, Gravity, Magnetic, Radiant, Stardust, Shroud, and Nexus) that replace the existing Space Storms. They spawn randomly on the map and travel the galaxy at various speeds, growing and shrinking with time.
  • STORM CHASER ORIGIN: The Storm Chasers are an empire made of people who seek to push themselves beyond their own limits. They believe enlightenment is found in engaging with the greatest force the universe has to offer: the Cosmic Storms.
  • 3 NEW CIVICS: Astrometeorology, Storm Devotion, and Environmental Architects
  • 2 PRECURSOR NARRATIVES: Discover the stories of the Ancients, vanished masters of the storms: Weather Manipulators and the adAkkaria Convention of Benevolence. The completion of these narratives will unlock a new relic for each.

In addition to those new features, Cosmic Storms adds technologies dedicated to storms, Galactic Community Resolutions, Anomalies, Arc Sites, and Weather Forecast Map Mode. It also adds a new Galactic Weather Control ascension perk, which makes it possible to create cosmic storms with science ships.
