Build a Navy Grand Enough for Your Ambitions

Two-thirds of the earth’s surface is covered by water, so it follows that the master of the oceans could be master of the world. Put your fleet to the test in The Great Wave, a new expansion for Victoria 3, available today, sold separately or as a part of Volume 3 for Victoria 3.

Victoria 3: The Great Wave adds a battleship’s worth of new content to Paradox Interactive’s grand strategy societal simulation. Shipyards build battle fleets specifically designed to meet your nation’s needs and aspirations, or for sale on the international market. A ship designer adds further customization, giving you complete control over the types of vessels you will put to sea.

The Great Wave also includes new diplomatic options and a range of new historical narrative content for the Empire of Japan, highlighting its struggle to reform in the face of internal, industrial and international pressure.

Victoria 3: The Great Wave includes new content related to:

  • Ship Designer: Design and construct a fleet according to your country’s strategic needs. Build powerful but expensive ocean-travelling warships to influence other nations, or build an efficient fleet designed to keep your coasts safe.

  • Flagships: Customize your very own pride of the fleet and let it lead your navy to prestigious victories.

  • Ship purchase treaties: Sell your ships to other countries across the globe, and draw profit from your ship building capabilities.

  • Gunboat Diplomacy options: Use your fleet to influence other countries in new diplomatic actions.

  • Narrative content:

    • Steer Japan through the social and political tumults of the late Edo period, characterized by increased challenges to Tokugawa samurai rule. Adapt to or revolt against a changing domestic and international landscape, and reform the country to see your vision through.

    • Contend with the entry of Japan onto the world stage, and best the Western powers at their own game. Use your navy to extend the reach of Japan beyond the home islands, and compete for land and influence with your powerful neighbours.

  • New historical characters.

  • Art: New clothing assets, a Japanese building style, UI skin, map, and table assets.
