Paradox Interactive lader til at klare sig fortrinligt med deres nye sci-fi-strategispil Stellaris, selvom spillet udkom uden megen fanfare. Udvikleren og udgiveren har afsløret i går, at udgivelsen er gået godt, og at spillet har solgt 200.000 kopier på 24 timer. Dette slår den rekord der tidligere har været holdt af Cities: Skylines - Stellaris "has broken every record available and is the studio's fastest selling game ever".
"We are immensely proud of the Paradox team for putting together such a stellar release -- This release is the result of hard work and dedication from the entire company and in particular Paradox Development Studio. The incredible reception by players, indicated for instance by the steam user reviews, is all the proof we could ask for that our hard work paid off. Our fans have put their faith in us and Stellaris will be a part of Paradox's onwards journey for a long time to come.", siger Fredrik Wester, CEO hos Paradox Interactive.
