Crusader Kings II: The Old Gods

Europe’s Turmoil in Crusader Kings II: The Old Gods

In Crusader Kings II: The Old Gods, players are thrust into a fractured Europe in 867 AD, where the turbulent landscape is dominated by petty fiefdoms and ambitious rulers. The Emperor grapples with the Pope, and a holy call to arms resonates across the continent. It’s a strategic rhythm where every decision counts, especially for those daring enough to seize control as Pagan or Zoroastrian leaders.

Become a Viking Ruler with New Mechanics

Playing as a Pagan chieftain offers unique gameplay opportunities within the Viking context. Players can ravage communities, engaging in classic Viking pillaging methods. If you linger in peace too long, however, your restless subjects may demand action. This expansion emphasizes the Norse tradition of invading, raiding, and expanding, a refreshing shift that beckons players toward the thrill of conquest.
