Release Description:

An ancient evil is returning to the vast universe of Distant Worlds 2. The Return of the Shakturi is the second expansion for Distant Worlds 2, the critically acclaimed 4X space strategy game. It adds a full endgame crisis and story, along with numerous new gameplay features and improvements that elevate the experience to new heights.BackstoryThe Shakturi, a sinister alien faction, played a pivotal role in the last cataclysm that nearly destroyed the galaxy. These formidable beings originally traveled from another galaxy and possess abilities far beyond normal understanding. Their return challenges even the most powerful late-game empires, threatening to overwhelm the galaxy.
Key Features

• Genetic Engineering in the game introduces a brand-new space creature and allows the Shakturi to manufacture these creatures for scouting and combat. It also grants the Shakturi influence over existing space creatures in the galaxy, enabling them to use these creatures to further their own goals.
• Biowarfare enables the Shakturi to deploy plagues that weaken other factions, making them more susceptible to Psychic influence and control.
• Psychic Abilities enhance the Shakturi's effectiveness in space and ground combat, diplomacy, espionage, and research. Countering these abilities requires innovative strategies that could potentially turn the Shakturi's strengths into weaknesses.
• Planet Destroyers and Mega Ships are powerful tools available to all factions, including those introduced post-release. These formidable assets are crucial in battles against the Shakturi, with Mega Ships offering unique functionalities, such as the Quameno Mobile Robotic Troop Foundry.
• New Space Creature – The Rift Strider introduces fresh challenges and opportunities within the game.
• Outposts allow factions to establish a presence on worlds unsuitable for full colonization, securing valuable territory for future expansion.
• The Multi-Empire Alliance System introduces new ways to coordinate and cooperate with allies, enhancing strategic collaboration across empires.
• New Space-based start with just a single colony ship and a small fleet.
• Ancient Guardian Vaults and Special Artifacts add depth to exploration and gameplay.

Release Description:

The Galaxy Expands! The second Distant Worlds 2 expansion brings two new playable factions – the introverted puzzle-solving Quameno and the numberless and ruthless Gizureans!

The Quameno mostly prefer to be left alone to focus on their research and their societies are often organized like war-time economies, but with a focus on research instead of military matters. They value puzzle-solving and the discovery of new knowledge above almost everything else, certainly more than distractions such as diplomacy, war or espionage. They also have a natural aptitude when it comes to energy technologies and because of the abundance of energy in their ships, stations and cities, they use energy fields where many others might use solid materials.

Their governments are typically based on a Geniocracy, which uses unique facilities such as the Enigma Maze to determine which are the most worthy to lead and the Transcendence Hub, a wonder which will trigger a singularity of sorts, which will free them from their physical limits and allow research to continue through eternity.

The Gizureans are legion, with an incredible reproduction rate, along with a ruthless focus on gaining and consuming enough resources to keep their burgeoning populations happy enough to stave off their tendency towards tribal strife. They also have a mysterious past, as the hive mind they once had was broken and a more limited shared consciousness is all that remains. They engineer their ships through partially organic processes, which allows them to be tougher, but their real focus is in their numbers. Gizureans tend to focus on numbers and tactics based on quantity in space combat, specializing in many smaller ships and large quantities of hive starfighters for their ships, stations and colony defense with the earliest access of any faction to planetary starfighter bases.

Each of these new factions also comes with their own special storyline and unique story locations, adding to the possible exploration events and to your knowledge of galactic lore. The Quameno will give you some additional insights on the Ancient galaxy and some of the mysteries the Ancient Guardians left behind, while the history of the Gizureans is connected with that of the Hive threat as well as the ancient enemy known as the Shakturi!Quameno Unique

Features:

• Geniocracy Government starts with better Research Labs and provides the largest research bonus of all government types, at the expense of other areas, including being unable to fund bonus colony growth. Also has the option for additional benefits whenever a research breakthrough or research critical failure happens.
• The Quameno also are the most gifted researchers in the galaxy, though their single-minded focus also means that they are limited when it comes to concurrent research
• Additional bonuses when they find new research locations or build new research stations
• Some temporary penalties due to distraction when treaties are signed or populations are unassimilated, preventing the Quameno from focusing as fully as they are normally able on their research puzzles
• Novacore Reactors, the best reactor in the game, along with Bubble Shields which have the highest Shield Resistance of all shield types
• The Transcendence Hub, an end-game victory condition wonder which allows the Quameno to transcend their physical forms
• Larger Research Stations
• Special exclusive Leader and Scientist Traits focused on Research
• Special conditional events Alien Distractions, Integration Studies, Puzzle Solved, Building the Future, A Piece of the Puzzle and The Answer reward them for thematic play
• Their unique story gives them an advantage when it comes to finding the new Ancient Guardian Vaults scattered throughout the galaxy and recovering the knowledge and artifacts within.

Gizurean Unique Features

• Cell Hegemony government type is a form of limited shared consciousness, which includes some of the benefits and fewer of the disadvantages of a full hive mind. Starts with better sensors and command control, more inspiring characters and a generally reduced rate of luxury resource needs.
• Excellent at boarding combat and gain extra bonuses from salvaging and retiring captured ships
• Swarm Targeting systems make their ships more accurate the more ships there are in a fleet.
• Hive Hangars and Hex Armor allow them to build and repair starfighters more quickly and cover their ships with partially organic armor that is stronger than normal alloys.
• Hive Fighter Bases are available to defend their planets from the very early game
• Internecine Tribal Conflicts can hold them back at times and they will need to supplement their slower research through reverse engineering and conquest
• Larger Carriers
• Special exclusive Leader and General traits focused on improving their collective consciousness and increasing the size and resiliency of their armies
• Special conditional events, such as Waste Nothing and The Scouring, give them extra bonuses when retiring ships or conquering planets. The Rivalry event means that their characters periodically engage in power struggles to eliminate the weak and Breeding World allows them to choose to boost their own growth rate further by using other species as food.

Release Description:

The Galaxy Expands! For the first time since the release of Distant Worlds 2, two new playable factions are joining the game – the peaceful Ikkuro and the devious Dhayut!

The Ikkuro are focused on happiness, growth and harmony. Their self-repairing ships are a mix of technology and biology and they are able to use their understanding of the various galactic biomes as well as unique terraforming facilities to achieve unprecedented levels of habitability.

The Dhayut are master deceivers and paranoid schemers. Their fast ships bring mistrust and slavery wherever they are found as their ability to infiltrate other societies allows them to manipulate other empires in ways that others cannot hope to achieve.

Each of these new factions also comes with their own special storyline and unique story locations, adding to the possible exploration events and to your knowledge of galactic lore.

Ikkuro Unique Features

• Harmonious Utopia Government focuses on happiness and increases immigration, recreation and medical capabiltiies

• Consensus Diplomacy means they are slower to agree to treaties, but value long-term relationships more
• No access to Bombardment weapons
• Biome Shaping facilities replace the default Terraforming Facilities
• SF27 Organic Hull (best self-repair of all ships), Fusion Beams (increased rate of fire beam weapons), Splinter Pods (longer range assault pods)
• Larger Colony Ships
• Special exclusive Leader and Ambassador traits focused on happiness, diplomacy and growth
• Special conditional events Respect for Life, Secrets of Life, Protection of Life and Disharmony reward non-aggression and colonization, but punish war, bombardment and extermination
• Larger than usual Colony Ships and improved suitability across most planet types

Dhayut Unique Features

• Surveillance Oligarchy Government focuses on sensors and adds a unique Internal Stabilization intelligence mission which reduces war weariness and corruption
• Bonuses to Hyperdrive Research, War Weariness and Ground Attack Strength
• Special Enslavement Control Facility improves the Slavery Population Policy
• Special Terminal Operations Center Facility improves success changes on difficult Intelligence misisons
• Access to two special Intelligence Missions: Influence Empire and Capture Base.

o Influence Empire allows them to shift the relationship of two other empires relative to each other
o Capture Base allows them to take control of another empire’s space station

• VelocityDrive Hyperdrive (fastest hyperdrive in the galaxy)
• Larger Monitoring Stations
• Special exclusive Leader and Spy traits focused on counter-espionage, slavery and assassination
• Special conditional events Disinformation and Network Effects mean succeeding at Deep Cover missions makes the target like the Dhayut more and succeeding at any of the more difficult Intelligence Missions gives them a bonus to other missions against that same faction for the next year
• Their paranoia leads to periodic purges of disloyal members of Dhayut society
