Europa Universalis V

Europa Universalis V is a grand strategy game developed by Paradox Tinto and published by Paradox Interactive, the sequel to the 2013 game Europa Universalis IV. Known during development as "Project Caesar", it was in the works from 2020, announced on 8 May 2025 and released on 4 November 2025. The player guides a country from 1 April 1337 to 1 January 1837. Unlike earlier entries, most parts of the game can be automated, so a player can concentrate on, say, trade or war and leave the rest to the AI. It also puts more weight on population and internal management, with a population system that models social classes, migration and economic output. From early 2024 Paradox Tinto previewed the game in forum posts called "Tinto Talks". It received generally favorable reviews.
