Paradox Interactive, known for strategy games such as Crusader Kings 3 and Europa Universalis 4, has unveiled plans for a new post-apocalyptic survival grand strategy game called Afterworld. The announcement was made ahead of Gamescom, which will be revealed on August 25th. Leaked information from Paradox's forum and a Discord server claim that players will lead a tribe of survivors, rediscover ancient technology, manage wasteland settlements, and engage in wars of conquest and political struggle.
The game's setting, reportedly featuring a wasteland environment, may draw inspiration from games like Fallout and Mad Max. Players will need to decide not only on military strategies but also on the philosophical direction their tribe will take, aiming to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past or forging new paths.
