Hey everyone,



The Closed Beta is not a finished product, so you might run into some bugs.

Of course, we're interested in hearing from you if you run into any problems, but there are some issues we already know about, so you don't need to spend your time reporting them. We've compiled these in the list below.

If you run into any problems not on this list, please check out the Guide to Bug Reporting before you post a thread.


  • Armies using the expansionist ability can currently not be attacked
  • The Expansionist ability can be used multiple times simultaneously
  • AI may keep offering the same treaty after it has been refused
  • Avatar appearance may not match the selected avatar on reloading
  • Some Events, Traits, or other effects that were related to Civics Points before may not have been adapted to the new system of spending influence yet
  • Tooltips and Tutorials of affinity abilities may be outdated
  • AI personas may be wrongly assigned on reloading a game
  • AI does not build military naval units
  • Controller support does not work properly in this build
  • Mouse Cursor moves on its own if a controller is plugged in. Workaround: Unplug your controller.
  • Special Characters when renaming cities, armies, or units may lead the game to lock up
