Release Date: October 20, 2016
A story expansion to Stellaris – a space real-time strategy game developed by Paradox Development. The greatest novelty in comparison to the base version of the game is a story campaign titled “War in Heaven” in which the player participates in a conflict between the Fallen Empires.
Leviathans is the title of the first story DLC for the space real-time strategy game Sunless Sea), helped in creating this expansion pack.
Unlike the base game that lacked any storyline, the Leviathans expansion introduces a story plot titled War in Heaven. The player is thrown in the middle of a conflict between two Fallen Empires which after years of peace decide to get back on the war path. The player can decide whether they will one of the sides of the conflict or remain neutral and try to gain profits amidst the chaos.
The Leviathans DLC for PC doesn’t introduce any revolutionary changes – it is still a real-time 4X strategy game in which the player globally manages a civilization. In addition to introducing a story plot and various new random encounters, the expansion adds a few important novelties. The first one is a new, neutral race named Guardians, creatures that hide many mysteries – solving them may proof as profitable as dangerous. Enclaves appear in the game as well – they are independent facilities created by merchants and artists. In these places the players can trade, exchange resources, gather valuable information and order some works of art that can be exhibited among their empire.
Stellaris: Leviathans for PC doesn’t introduce any serious changes to the technical aspects of the game. However, the developers implemented new sounds and music themes.

Game Ratings for Stellaris: Leviathans Video Game.
GameWatcher: 9 / 10 by Michael Brown
The Leviathans DLC is in my opinion an absolute must for Stellaris players. The content offered is high quality and produces some great in game experiences. The additions add strategic depth to the overall game and frankly, I couldn’t see anyone going back after playing this.
Cubed3: 6 / 10
Stellaris is great for a play or two, but the content simply lacks the replayability. The Leviathans DLC fixes some of the issues of content being light in the midgame, but does nothing to remove the bog that inevitably comes mid to late game. As fun as a single play is, even a grind through the later portion of the campaign shows enough that little changes the player can make, such as the empire customisation or content added in the DLC, do nothing. For fans of Stellaris, the DLC will be pretty interesting, but those who have side-lined it are not going to be lured back by this.
GameSpew: 6 / 10 by Matthew Hung
Leviathans offers some nice new features, but does not add enough worthwhile content to Stellaris to recommend purchasing alone or to justify the price tag.
