Stellaris Nexus - Early Access Release Date

The next level of the Stellaris experience

Imagine being able to experience the fascination and strategic depth of Stellaris in a compact version that you can play during your lunch break. That's exactly what Stellaris Nexus, the latest game from Paradox, promises. It offers the same infinite depth, appealing design, and diverse possibilities as the original game, but reduces the epic playing time to a manageable 60 minutes.

The long-awaited news about the early access release date is finally here! Starting from December 5th, you can embark on your own home system and attempt to be the first civilization to conquer the galactic capital world - the eponymous Nexus. Whether through warfare or behind-the-scenes maneuvering, the decision is entirely up to you.

A new strategy game for in-between

The appeal of Stellaris Nexus lies in its brevity. Unlike other Paradox games like Crusader Kings 3 or Cities Skylines 2, a full round only takes about an hour. Nevertheless, all aspects of the original game are present: you can choose from different factions, compete against five friends in multiplayer, forge alliances, engage in battles, and deal with diplomatic challenges.

How does Stellaris Nexus work?

After starting in your home system, you must try to be the first civilization to conquer the galactic Nexus. You have the choice of openly waging war or acting in secret through bureaucratic manipulations and political intrigues.

When can I finally get started?

The good news is: the early access release date for Stellaris Nexus is finally known! Starting from December 5th, you can dive into the strategic turmoil. There is no information about a full 1.0 release yet, but if you are a fan of the main game and want to continue the experience on a smaller scale, Nexus is just right for you.

Ready for the new Stellaris experience?

If you can't wait to dive into the world of Stellaris Nexus, keep an eye out for the early access launch on December 5th. And don't forget to secure your Steam Key in time. See you in the Nexus!
