Victoria 3 Gets New Video About Trade, Construction, and Opium Wars

Today Paradox Interactive released another extensive video featuring an update about the upcoming strategy game, Victoria 3.

This time around, the video focuses on a number of gameplay mechanics including construction, the various aspects of trade, and more extreme incarnations like the Opium Wars.

You can check it out below.

Victoria 3 has been announced back in May 2021, and it’s coming at some unspecified point in the future for PC via Steam, Game Pass (for PC), and Paradox’s own store.

Below you can read an official description if you need a refresher. You can also watch another video about politics,  one about the economy, one about war, one about Peace, and one about colonies.

“The railroad and the telegraph. Steamships and the birth of flight. Mass conscription, emancipation, and the campaign for women’s rights. The Victorian Age saw a world transformed by new technology, new philosophies, and new ways of doing politics. This tumultuous century springs to new life in Victoria 3, a grand strategy game from Paradox Development Studio.

After years of community requests and curiosity about the future of one of the company’s iconic games, Victoria 3 is instantly one of the most highly anticipated grand strategy games in Paradox’s history. Victoria 3 is a society simulator set in a time of great change. Track the needs and desires of national populations, each group with its own political and material preferences. Conservative factions may resist political reform as growing numbers of tradespeople and intellectuals push for a greater say in how the nation is run. Trade a wide range of goods on a global scale to make sure that needs are met at home because if people are hungry and disenfranchised, revolution beckons.”
