Stellaris: Utopia brings even greater depth and variety to a game already celebrated for its story-telling power and near endless possibilities. Are you ready for perfection?
One of the core improvements in Utopia is the introduction of Ascension Perks. As your species advances and gains new traditions, it can choose how it wants to evolve as it is further enlightened. You can choose between a biological path, a psionic path or a synthetic path, with various options within these broad categories. Body, Mind or Machine - how will your species challenge the future?
Utopia Also Includes:
Megastructures: Build wondrous structures in your systems including Dyson Spheres and ring worlds, bringing both prestige and major advantages to your race.
Habitat Stations: Build “tall” and establish space stations that will house more population, serving the role of planets in a small and confined empire.
Rights and Privileges: Set specific policies for which of the many species under your thumb will have the rights and privileges of full citizenship. Build an egalitarian paradise or follow a caste system.
And even more improvements and updates, including (as is traditional with all of our paid content releases) free updates for every Stellaris owner!

"Our path leads to Utopia." It's quite poetic. After all, Utopia means no place.
-
One man's utopia is another man's dystopia.
-
"FIX BAYONETS !!!" "Ehmm ... sire ? We are in space ....". "FIX SPACE BAYONETS !"

Notice how the Xenos couldn't make the sphere properly and it was all wonky, now notice the perfect picture the humans have. I think we all know who is better at sphere looking.

I had pants on when this started

I literally had more or less this scenario play out in my last game. One of the neighboring empires discovered a ruined Dyson Sphere. Initially, I had plans to conquer it, but was forced to put those plans on hold after the Grey Tempest event occurred. For a while, I straight up forgot about the Dyson Sphere. Eventually, my empire completed its Strategic Coordination Center. As a result, my fleet capacity improved massively and was followed by a massive increase in military spending as a commissioned hundreds of new ships. However, the massive new fleet that I had built put significant strain on my energy output, leading to impending financial collapse. I needed a quick source of energy to stabilize my economy. That's when I got the message, informing me that the other empire had finally completed its project to restore the Dyson Sphere. Well... the convenient timing was not lost on me. I mobilizes my massive, expanded navy and declared war on the empire to seize its Dyson Sphere. Little did I know, the empire had powerful friends. This resulted in me getting sucked into a war with a federation which included 2 of the most powerful members of the galactic community. While it was a relatively short war, it was still a bloody one. With my fleet having to expend ships to keep the Dyson Sphere empire's allies from reinforcing it in the main theater of operations. In the end, I won, at a heavy cost. But it was worth it.

FOR THE EMPEROR!!!!
-
I love how the humans sounded like an authoritarian warmongering empire while the aliens are freedom fighters.
-
So, a pacifist empire going fleet-to-fleet with a militarist one... my energy credits on the humans
-
The alien representative saying some random platitudes about what they will do when they get a Dyson sphere. Human representative:"WE WILL CONTROL THE ENTIRE GALAXY" This pretty much describes every stellaris playthrogh i had. Even when I play a peace living diplomatic empire I always end up teaching the, galaxy of my peaceful ways. By force.
-
Because both factiones seem to be fighting over the sphere, it looks like they are just stealing it from a poor thrid faction which did all the work and research.
-
Humanity shall rise ever higher! Down with the Blorg! Oh shi- BLAM! Friendship is mandatory.
-
The human empire got me hyped, let us restore order from chaos! FOR THE EMPIRE!
-
"You call a Dyson sphere a utopia." Laughs inside the Matrioshka Brain around a Penrose Sphere.
-
1:18 "Allowing us to finally forge order from chaos" Eye of terror appeared
-
"Would you like to know more?" When i read this phrase i always hear Starship Troopers.
-
Best Paradox trailer to date. FOR UTOPIA
-
Meanwhile; a Xenophobic Fallen Empire neighboring the sphere: What the heck is going on here?
-
The human leader makes me think of Kuvira.
