New screens: Europa Universalis II

Paradox Entertainment has released new screenshots from its upcoming strategy game, Europa Universalis II. The game will use the same adjustable real-time strategy system found in the previous game, and it will add several new features, such as new diplomacy, trade, military, and development options, as well as improved graphics, music, and sound. It will let players command one of 180 countries, beginning in the 15th century and ending in the early 19th century.

We've posted the new screenshots showing different map views, along with a previously released screenshot, 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.
