Stardock Corporation have released a big update for Galactic Civilizations III.

Officially titled the v2.0 update, a whole host of new features have been added to the game, including the likes of: new Starbase Administrators resource, improvements to its Diplomacy system, various enhancements to its UI, and more. You can find an exhaustive list of all the additions and changes here.

“Version 2.0 is the culmination of many months of working closely with our community on the kinds of features players like but often don’t get a lot of attention,” Stardock CEO Brad Wardell said in a statement.

“For example, the diplomatic AI is more sophisticated and plays a lot like a human would both in terms of trading and how they deal with the complex web of foreign relations. We also added a new concept called administration that is designed to let players have smaller empires that are competitive.”

Alongside the update comes a massive, celebratory discount for the game, including a 66% discount for the base game, as well as a staggering 73% discount for the Galactic Civilizations III: Gold Bundle, both of which are available until January 30th.
