We absolutely recommend the base game in our Shacknews review, but if you want to get freaky and tweaky, then we’ve compiled a solid list of mods for you to peruse. It may be staggering to know where to start if you want to dabble in CK3 modding. There are already hundreds of mods over on the Crusader Kings 3 Steam Workshop, made by creators from all over the community that run from simple conveniences, to outright overhauls. Even so, if the “vanilla” foundation of Crusader Kings 3 isn’t tooled just to your liking, then you’ll be delighted to know Paradox Interactive worked to make the game immensely and easily moddable as well. The game is chock-full of NPC characters acting with, against, and nebulous of your activity, trying to further their rule and lineage by any means available to them. The rule set can now be configured to affect the frequency of AI matrilineal marriages.Crusader Kings 3 is one of the most flexibly vast and random experiences around.
Changes to rules and options. Nudity is now a game setting, not a rule. Ugly characters now have more exaggerated facial features. Siberian Paganism added to the game as a new Faith. Military Improvements allowing you to attach armies to your main force and prevent raising levies in a province beyond its supply limit. Kill List that tracks the executions, battle slayings, and (known) murders by characters in the game. Additionally, patch 1.2 brings a number of other updates and fixes to Crusader Kings 3. With today's update, Paradox Interactive brings this famed feature to Crusader Kings 3 for all players to enjoy. The ability to create unique characters was a major part of Crusader Kings 2 and proved to be one of the title's most sought after expansions.
Customize their appearance with thousands of options, including hair length, skin color, eyebrow shape, and much more. Play as male or female, with any in-game culture, religion, or sexual orientation. Make a brilliant strategist or holy administrator. Add traits and fine-tune their skills.
Choose your ruler's starting realm and then dive into the designer. With the Ruler Designer feature, players can handcraft the best – or worst – of rulers with customization options spanning appearance, age, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and more, then quickly dive into the mayhem and drama that has become the game's hallmark. You can read more about the patch here and check out a trailer showing off the new content.
But the additional content is what really makes it stand out.
The update comes as part of the 1.2 Patch that brings in a number of fixes and adjustments to the game to help eliminate bugs and help it run a bit smoother. Paradox Interactive has dropped a new free update into Crusader Kings 3 this week, giving you a chance to explore the Ruler Designer features.
