Unlike publishers of other strategy games, Paradox Interactive doesn’t overlook console players. The Chapter IV content pack for Crusader Kings III recently launched on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. This expansion includes the Khans of the Steppe expansion and the Coronations event pack, developed by Room 8 Group. It also includes the All Under Heaven expansion, but that isn’t available yet and will be released later.

Crusader Kings III is a grand strategy role-playing game set in a meticulously crafted and detailed medieval world. The game’s historical tapestry spans not only battles and conquests, but also religious faith, diplomacy, and intrigue. True strategy calls for cunning, and Crusader Kings III will test how well players can manage their court and thrive in a dangerous world—because both are full of extraordinary personalities.

Chapter IV for Crusader Kings III includes:

  • Crowns of the World pack: Available immediately after purchasing Chapter IV, this pack includes six new historical royal crowns, four new hairstyles, and two new beards for character portraits.
  • Khans of the Steppe expansion: Focused on the historical details and vibrant character of nomadic tribes, this expansion also introduces new game mechanics, such as herd migration and clan politics.
  • Coronations event pack: This event pack explores the decisions a ruler must make when ascending to the throne. Plan a carefully orchestrated coronation to show off your wealth and power to both vassals and rivals.
  • All Under Heaven expansion: This major expansion for Crusader Kings III expands the game map to include China, Japan, and Southeast Asia. Explore new government types for each region, special events, decisions, and character roles as you create original alternate histories of the medieval world unlike any seen in previous Crusader Kings games.

In Khans of the Steppe, players (or, more precisely, their characters) will have to master horseback riding and archery, as well as the complexities of clan politics. On the steppe, you’ll raid your neighbors, grow your herds, and amass enough power to become the Khan of Khans—and perhaps ruler of the entire world.

Key features of Crusader Kings III: Khans of the Steppe:

  • Nomadic government. Experience a new way to rule. A nomadic government takes care of the people’s most important asset: their herds. Manage your people, regulate migration, and keep your population stable and mobile. Strengthen your authority and bend your subjects to your will, ensuring their obedience.

  • The Steppe. Experience the hardships of life on the Great Steppe. The seasonal system changes the fertility of the land, forcing you to adapt and migrate. Seek greener pastures, claim new territories, and seize power in this vast, untamed region.

  • Tributary system. Forge alliances and secure resources through a new type of vassal relationship. Tributaries are a more flexible alternative to vassalage, offering benefits to both suzerains and subjects while allowing for independence and adaptability.

  • Become the Scourge of God. Don the robes of the Great Khan and unite the steppe under your iron fist. Conquer the world, subjugate and shatter empires, and fulfill the prophecies of the Scourge of God.

  • Mongolian flavor. Immerse yourself in Mongolian traditions and culture. Begin your journey as Temüjin, the future Genghis Khan, ready to change history forever. Take part in a kurultai and explore the Mongolian system of inheritance. Discover how the kurultai and the new Mongolian inheritance system work. Join in exciting new events, such as the Tsagaan Sar New Year celebration.

Coronations is an event pack for Crusader Kings III that adds a new activity for your ruler, along with related events. The coronation ceremony allows kings and emperors to solemnly proclaim their rule, impress high-ranking figures, and even hatch a few plots along the way. Even if your character isn’t being crowned, they can attend the ceremony as a guest and fulfill their noble duties.

Key features of Crusader Kings III: Coronations:

  • New activity: Coronation

    • Legitimize your rule with a grand ceremony that will impress your vassals and the rulers of neighboring countries.
    • Scheme and maneuver to keep members of different factions and your detractors happy, and ensure the coronation goes off in splendor despite the dangers.
    • Gather your vassals for a grand ceremony to celebrate the beginning of your reign.

  • Oaths

    • Take an oath after your coronation and declare the purpose of your reign.
    • Unlock new decisions with unique rewards to suit any playstyle.
