Today marks the launch of a significant update for Stellaris, version 4.0. Alongside this major update comes the new DLC, BioGenesis, which initiates Season 9 and offers players the opportunity to develop into skilled geneticists, crafting armadas of living, biological vessels. Remarkably, BioGenesis is the ninth significant update in the nine years since Stellaris first debuted, with a major update being rolled out almost annually since its launch in 2016, save for two releases in 2018 and no release in 2019. The latest rollout has led to a surge in player count on Steam, reaching over thirty thousand players, as reported by SteamDB.

New DLC for Stellaris, BioGenesis, is available now alongside the 4.0 update

Stellaris represents a sprawling science fiction 4X strategy game, skillfully crafted by the experts at Paradox Development Studio. This game allows you to establish an empire that spans the cosmos, either solo or with companions in multiplayer mode. The experience offers opportunities for both rivalry and cooperation among players. As your journey unfolds over countless hours, expect to encounter adversaries, alien civilizations, and a host of other challenges. Paradox is a renowned independent studio recognized for their contributions to various city-building and strategy games such as Cities: Skylines and Crusader Kings 3.

In a recent post on Steam, Paradox announced the launch of their DLC, inviting players to assume the role of a skilled geneticist. With this expansion, you can shape the galaxy according to your vision using living ships, customized ecosystems, and advanced species. Embrace novelty with cutting-edge bioengineering tools as you cultivate a civilization that flourishes on adaptability and evolution, or seize control of the stars by exploiting these tools. A chilling line from the gameplay trailer encapsulates the new features: “Metal corrodes, but flesh evolves.

Players will now have the opportunity to embark on fresh adventures with three distinct starting points:

1. With the Evolutionary Predators, you’ll live by the rule “Become what you eat.”
2. Fortify yourself as a Starlit Citadel, standing tall against any adversity.
3. Or, explore the universe as a living, sapient planet with the extraordinary Wilderness origin…

This latest expansion pack also brings a new crisis path, the Behemoth Fury. Aim to craft a formidable lifeform capable of obliterating entire planets.

Currently, the game Stellaris is significantly discounted on Steam and will remain so for the next two weeks, selling at just $9.99 instead of its regular price of $39.99. This reduced cost makes the DLC price of $44.99 more reasonable. Alternatively, if you prefer a subscription model, it’s available through Steam at $9.99 per month. Given that this game regularly receives annual updates, you can rest assured that there will be plenty of fresh content to enjoy.
