Buy the Royal Court DLC for Crusader Kings III
There's only one centre of power and prestige: the ruler's court. Immerse yourself in your immersive throne room with
Crusader Kings: Royal Court, and impress vassals and courtiers alike by displaying your splendour and treasures. Watch visitors bow or your family argue as you dispense justice in royal audiences, forging a vital link between the people and the realm.
In Crusader Kings: Royal Court, you can commission masterpieces from talented craftsmen. Impress your rivals with the grandeur of your court, or with the legacies and relics of your house. An enhanced culture system lets you guide your people towards innovative knowledge as they unite or divide, embrace their heritage, learn languages or integrate new traditions.
A royal court on display
- As king or emperor, watch your throne room come to life with a wide range of court drama and intrigue. Immerse yourself in a fully 3D space, available in one of four main visual styles, and adorn it in finery and majesty.
- Deliver justice to the plaintiffs, whether harshly or kindly. Grant an audience and watch your courtiers plot and try to get your attention.
- Raise the grandeur of your court to match that of your greatest rival. Or fail to impress him and suffer the diplomatic consequences of your bad taste.
A real treasure
- Display sophisticated relics or focus on the heritage and history of your dynasty. A whole assortment of never-before-seen items can be admired thanks to the return of inventory to the series.
- Talented craftsmen, from jewellers to weavers, can work on special projects to add unique objects to your estate.
- Order masterpieces or win items in battle. But be careful! They can easily be lost after a botched duel or a rival's plot.
Culture and people
- A completely redesigned culture system is at your service. The new core cultural traditions allow you to make in-depth changes to your game, from choosing the right benefits for your kingdom to granting new military bonuses. Determine your heritage with the Cultural Pillars or teach your subjects new languages.
- Create a dynamic melting pot with the Cultural Hybridization function, which mixes and matches the characteristic traits of your people into a unique cultural amalgam. Become a great Bedouin conqueror who merges with a recently subjugated people, or emulate the adventurous Viking ruler who has adopted the culture of Sri Lanka.
- Witness the cultural evolution of your kingdom with the Cultural Divergence function, as the passage of time subtly transforms a homogeneous culture into a myriad of different peoples. Choose to shape it or sow the seeds of change and watch a monolithic culture evolve into many different peoples.
