[i]Facing eradication, humanity left Earth behind and set off into the cosmos, believing in the promise of a better life in Eos. A peaceful reconstruction of our lives, however, proved difficult.[/i] This transmission goes out to all (soon to be) intergalactic settlers out there -- Pax Nova has spent enough turns in Early Access and is now fully released! We’ve also got a new trailer to celebrate. Take a look and spot some new stuff, like the big ol’ mech Behemoth. [previewyoutube=7EqV9yk4y5U;full][/previewyoutube] And for our new cosmic visitors (hello), here’s a quick rundown of some of the things you can expect in Pax Nova: [list] [*] Explore the secrets of Eos, both on land and in space [*] Expand your reach across multiple different planets and systems [*] Exploit the finite strategic resources of each planet you come across [*] Exterminate your enemies using customizable units and spacecraft [*] Set an Example (running out of 'Ex' jokes here) to other factions by creating your own custom civilization from scratch [/list] Does that tickle your fancy? Does the thought of intergalactic conquest excite you? Then we would urge you to give Pax Nova a go! The game will be on sale during the launch week, and will have a post-Early Access [b]price increase after that week[/b] to $29,99 USD, € 24,99 EUR, and £23.79 GBP https://store.steampowered.com/app/804850/Pax_Nova/ [h2]What's new in 1.0?[/h2] We briefly went over some 1.0 changes before, but here's a summary again.
