Indie developer Midjiwan AB has announced The Battle of Polytopia Diplomacy expansion for its 4X strategy game. The expansion introduces diplomacy, cloaks, and sneak attacks in the game’s biggest update since launch.
The Diplomacy expansion is available for free and can be downloaded with the latest version of the game from the App Store, Google Play, and Steam.
The update’s newly introduced technology in the Tech Tree offers a wide range of unique features, adding a new layer of complexity to the gameplay like Treaties, Embassies, Tribe Relations, and more.
The new feature of Diplomacy will let you form alliances with other humans and AI, build embassies, find player capitals, dispatch spies, and launch clever and sophisticated sneak attacks that come out of nowhere.
Christian Lovstedt, General Manager at Midjiwan AB talked about the expansion,
Diplomacy is the biggest core gameplay update ever for The Battle of Polytopia. It is the result of years of development, testing and hard work. The update takes our game to the next level of complexity and fun. We can’t wait for players to sink their teeth into all the new features we’ve prepared for them.
Diplomacy Tech Key Features:
- Peace Treaties – Become friends with former enemies… until one of you calls it quits. Teammates cannot attack one another and can share roads.
- Cloaks – These infiltration specialists are trained in the arts of subterfuge and clandestine operations and arrive armed with two new abilities: Stealth and Infiltrate. Cloaks are invisible to enemy units until they perform an action.
- Tribe Relations – With Tribe Relations systems, players can evaluate which tribe they can become friends with. Colored bubbles offer detailed explanations of what the tribes think of them.
- Embassies – Diplomatic buildings that can only be built in other tribes’ capitals when players are not at war with them. Embassies reveal the surrounding eight tiles and provide monetary rewards every turn.
- Daggers – Rebels incited to action by the Cloak to attack an enemy city. Daggers are the ultimate surprise attack guerrilla warfare units, meaning enemies won’t retaliate when they pounce.
- Capital Vision – View the Capital City location of any tribe you’ve encountered. Capital Vision will also take effect when players meet someone new, thus aiding them in making tactical decisions
