Victoria 3 finally launches in October, but it's dropping its day one Game Pass launch
Victoria 3 when?

Update, August 31, 2022: Victoria 3 is no longer set to be released on PC Game Pass. A🧸 representative of Paradox Interactive reached out to confirm that the game will be exclusive to to Steam at launch.
"The game will be a Steam exclusive at the release - after discussion with our partners it was decided that Victoria 3 won't be a part of Game Pass or 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Microsoft Store," Paradox says in an . "Xbox fans of Paradox’s epic grand strategy titles can enjoy our games like Crusader Kings III, Stellar🌟is, Shadowrun Trilogy, Hearts of Iron IV and more with Game Pass today and we look forward to sharing more details on our next partnership with Xbox in the future."
Original story: Victoria 3, the long-awaited next entry in the♍ Paradox line of grand strategy games, finally has a release date, set for October 25.
Confirmation of the October 25🌼 release date for Victoria 3 comes alongside an extensive gameplay reveal from the game's developers. I'd try to recap some of the highlights, but, well… It's still ongoing as I write this and it's already over three꧑ hours long, so maybe you should just tune for yourself if you want to take a look at Victoria 3 in action.
Victoria 3 was confirmed as a day one addition to PC Game Pass alongside its original announcement last year. Players have noted th💞at Game Pass branding has been conspicuously absent from recent trailers for the game, though there's been no official indication of a change in plans for that day o🀅ne Game Pass launch. Much of Paradox's catalog, including the recent Crusader Kings 3, is also available on PC Game Pass. You can also grab the game , of course.
If you're not familiar with Paradox's grand strategy format, the basic idea is that you take control of a single historical figure through 𓃲a meticulously-detailed simulation of the social, p꧂olitical, and military machinations of the era.
Victoria 3 is big on the social and political sides in particular, putting you in control of one of 100 nations in 1836 and letting your relations with the countries around you dict♑🗹ate your fate over the century that follows.
