The colossal Europa Universalis 4 DLC Domination has been announced, as yet another round of extra content is set to come to the grand strategy game soon. You’ll be rediscovering the greatest powers in the game, as developer Paradox expands and improves upon many of the nations to choose from.
An expansion pack releasing this year for the strategy game, Europa Universalis 4: Domination will let you rediscover the history of powers like the Ottomans, Great Britain, France, Russia, Japan, China, and more in updated historical detail.
You can also expect a free Europa Universalis update for all players when the Domination DLC launches, and according to Paradox “Domination also includes new art and music alongside a rich menu of new historical detail, adding more flavorful estates, reforms, special units, and events to the leading powers.”
Europa Universalis 4: Domination DLC mission trees and features
Below is the list of nations that get new content and features in Europa Universalis 4: Domination, alongside what Paradox Interactive says you can expect from each.

- China: Different mission trees for the Han Ming and invader empires like the Qing. Choose between expansion and Inward Perfection, and counter the power of the Eunuchs to build a more stable empire

Choose the path of Peter’s reforms to modernize the state, so your mission tree as well as your mechanics will change and evolve as the game progresses. Use the power of Cossacks and Streltsy to expand your Empire to East and West.
- Spain: Expanded mission trees for Castile and Aragon, with different paths to form Spain, a new mechanic available for the new ‘Hispanic Monarchy’ government, and decisions about the Army and Navy to get the mighty Tercios and Spanish Armada.
- France: Fight the end of the Hundred Years War, centralize France into an absolute monarchy while dealing with the Wars of Religion, expand into Italy and the Holy Roman Empire, and lead the Revolution through an expanded mission tree.
