New screens: Europa Universalis II

Paradox Entertainment has released two new screenshots from its upcoming strategy game sequel, Europa Universalis II. Europa Universalis II will use the same adjustable real-time strategy system found in the previous game, and it will add a variety of new features, such as new diplomacy, trade, military, and development options, as well as improved graphics, music, and sound. Players will command one of 180 countries, beginning in the 15th century and ending in the early 19th century. Players must oversee all domestic and foreign policies, and they can engage in war and trade, explore new lands, and send out religious missionaries to convert infidels in other countries.

We've posted some previously available screens along with the new screens in the gallery above. Europa Universalis II is in development at Paradox Entertainment, and it will be published by Strategy First this holiday season. For more information, take a look at our previous coverage of the game.
