Hi terraformers,

We’re thrilled to announce the final Terraformers DLC: Independence!

And it’s coming sooner than you think: April 16th! 🥳

In this final expansion, Martian factions vie for power. Will you align with the Scientists, the Industrialists, or the Humanists? Maintain a careful balance: if one faction dominates, Mars may slide into autocracy. How will you shape Martian politics and guide the Red Planet toward independence from Earth?

✨ Features:

  • Align cities - When founding a city, assign which faction should lead its local government. There are 3 factions to choose from, with a total of 21 different policies to shape your city’s focus. The better your cities are developed according to a faction’s goals, the more influence the faction will acquire.

  • Form government - When a faction acquires enough influence, they will take a seat in the Martian Government. The distribution of seats between the various factions determines whether you’ll become a democracy, an oligarchy or a dictatorship.

  • Use faction perks — There are 50 Mandates in total, divided into five tiers. When a faction gains a seat in government it’ll grant one of these perks, providing a powerful one-time effect.

  • CosmeticGain independenceEarth controls all Martian government seats at the start. Every seat that a Martian faction takes from Earth is a step towards independence.

  • Leadership - Lead your Martian society in different ways with 4 new leaders. Invest in your leadership by increasing the amount of leaders that are proposed per term, or even increase the number of skills your leaders can use per turn.
