We have some good news to share with you! As we are preparing everything for Victoria 3: Expansion Pass 2 (yes, you’ve read this right!), it’s about time to do some Spring clean-up and reorganize the Victoria 3 portfolio to make it truly evergreen. In this way we want to lower the entry threshold for new players, while rewarding the seasoned veterans by making it easier for them to complete their collection.
Here are the new packages we are going to introduce:
Victoria 3: Starter Edition
The Victoria 3: Starter Edition gives newcomers to the game a robust starting point to begin their exploration. It includes the following content:
- Victoria 3 Base Game
- Sphere of Influence
- Colossus of the South
- American Buildings Pack
Base price: 64.99$ (-24% off compared to the price of content being sold separately)
Victoria 3: Ultimate Bundle
The easiest way to complete your collection - and each DLC you already own will lower the price. It includes the following content:
- Victoria 3 Base Game
- Sphere of Influence
- Pivot of Empire
- Colossus of the South
- American Buildings Pack
- Melodies for the Masses
- Voice of the People
- French Agitators Bonus Pack
- Dawn of Wonder
Base price: dependent on content you already own, with 25% discount added on top!

With the packages above being introduced, we are also removing some of the older ones, which will become obsolete. As soon as Ultimate Bundle and Starter Edition are available, both Grand Edition and Expansion Pass 1 will be retired.
Now, when is this going to happen? Very soon - on March 31! That’s also when we are going to officially announce Expansion Pass 2 and disclose our plans for the upcoming year. Stay tuned!
