Stellaris, the representative work of the 4X genre, introduced a new DLC. With the release of the first contact story pack, which includes exchanges with primitive civilizations and concealment functions, the main story discount started, and Steam ranked #1 in world top sales.

First Contact, released on the 15th, is a story pack DLC with small contents added. Three origins corresponding to the background set at the start of the game are added, and interaction with primitive civilizations becomes possible. In addition, concealment technology is added to help you mount on a ship for infiltration investigations or covertly capture enemies.

Stellaris is a grand strategy game set in the era of space exploration when superluminal navigation technology was developed. Starting with the motherland of the empire, the player will explore the universe through interstellar travel and meet various alien civilizations. After growing the empire, you can use various means such as diplomacy, war, resources, trade, and technology with other planets and races to increase your national power, eventually establishing a galactic empire or becoming a higher-dimensional being.

In addition, in May, the official Korean language support started six years following the game was released, and domestic players are also receiving favorable reviews.
