In Sins of a Solar Empire II, players must guide their
faction against the threat of extinction with three distinct races:
the Trader Emergency Coalition, the Vasari Empire, or the Advent
Unity. Each race has been updated with their own asymmetric
playstyle including unique starting conditions, units, abilities,
and game-changing Empire Systems.
Sins II will give players more tools than ever to form their own
play styles as they battle, scheme, monopolize, and manipulate
their way to victory. The sequel also introduces new emergent
tactics and strategies that reward creative thinking. Players can
protect vulnerable units by body-blocking missiles with their
Titan, launch a surprise attack from a rogue asteroid when its
orbit reaches the enemy's back line, or guard themselves against a
backstab with a time-locked alliance.
"With new ways to play, new tactical options, and new strategic
elements, the time is right to bring Sins of a Solar Empire
II to a new audience on Steam," said Brian Clair, Director of Publishing at Stardock.
"We've spent the past year bringing free monthly content updates to
the game on the Epic Games Store, where it's been positively
reviewed by fans, and look forward to sharing all that work with
Steam players while continuing to bring even more new content to
the game."
Sins of a Solar Empire II is packed with new
features for players to explore, including:
- The Advent Unity race returns for Sins of a Solar
Empire II with two sub-factions that utilize new items,
mechanics, and the unique "Unity" Empire System
- Orbiting planets that dynamically alter the map during play,
requiring players to gradually shift their strategies as new
challenges and opportunities present themselves
- Enhanced tactical battles and deeper combat simulation
featuring tracking turrets and missiles that can be blocked by
ships or shot down
- Minor factions that provide unique capabilities to players that
befriend them through a new influence system
- New economy model that allows players to truly customize their
worlds to fit production needs
- Capital ships that can be equipped with special augmentations
to be more effective in battle
- New in-game mod browser allows for easy installation for mods
and maps
For those who enjoy challenging themselves in online play,
Sins of a Solar Empire II allows for up to 10-player
multiplayer matches. Players can now seamlessly join or resume
games, and an in-game mod workshop automatically keeps in sync with
any enabled mod content.
