Mare Nostrum Expansion now Available for Europa Universalis IV

For centuries, explorers have longed to conquer the open seas. The lure of the salty air of the open sea is a calling that few of the great navigators have been able to resist. Now, you can heed the call of the ocean in Europa Universalis IV. The latest expansion, Mare Nostrum brings with it a tonne of new options for naval combat and expansion. The DLC is also accompanied by a massive update that is free to every Europa Universalis IV player, whether or not they buy the expansion. This update will include an updated map, a new state system to organise your nation, tweaks to naval combat and the introduction of sailors to man your ships.

• Naval Missions: Naval interface improved to make control of your fleets less hands-on and more mission oriented
• Barbary Raids: The Berber nations of North Africa can raid their neighbors for money and extra sailors
• New Espionage System: Build a spy network and call on it to undertake actions in enemy lands
• Trade Leagues: Merchant republics can recruit minor nations into their Trade League for common defence and, more importantly, common riches
