Old World - Explore Egypt with "Pharaohs of the Nile"

Off to Egypt with Old World

Which one of us gamers hasn't dreamt of creating and leading an entire civilization? The dream comes true with the 4X strategy game Old World, developed by the former lead designer of Civilization 4, Soren Johnson. And now it gets even more exciting, as the game ventures into the land of pyramids and pharaohs with the new DLC "Pharaohs of the Nile".

In addition to the base game, which was already one of the best 4X games of 2022, this expansion pack introduces an entire Egypt-centered campaign. Here, you not only have to manage the balance of your nation through the Ma'at Meter, but also interact with characters and NPCs while trying to preserve your nation from a story inspired by the Old Testament book of Exodus.

Discover the Kingdom of Kemet

In "Pharaohs of the Nile," you will guide the Kingdom of Kemet through its rise and fall, starting from its foundation to the golden age of ancient Egypt. You will face the challenge of managing the Nile's flood cycle and defending against the invasion of the 'Sea Peoples.' But beware! Internal conflicts between powerful religious factions lurk everywhere.

But that's not all: with the Old World DLC, you also have the opportunity to play a sandbox campaign where you take control of the Kingdom of Kush. With unique enhancements like the Kushite Pyramids and a selection of five dynasties, this campaign offers plenty of room for your strategies.
