Stellaris: Nemesis Expansion | Story Pt. 2 | Available April 15th | Pre-Order Now 

In order to ensure our security and continuing stability, the Galatic Community will be reorganized into the first Galactic Imperium, for a safe and secure society!!

Back in my day the only way to get the galaxy on your side was by restricting water rations.

Investing in those giant holographic news screens really paid off.

I'm not saying I know who's gonna win, but I kinda got the idea that the guy who has a *galaxy nuking super weapon* aimed at the custodian's fleet might have the upper hand.

I shall become the darkness.

I’m loving these Cinematics

I AM THE SENATE

Me: make my xenophile empire the crisis Galactic Community: confused screaming

Stellaris is THE sci-fi trope blender, and I’m here for all of the borg, Death Star, reaper, eye of terror, ring world shenanigans that entails Edit: entailed to entails

Stellaris Nemesis: Genocide Evolved

So this is how liberty dies... with thunderous applause

Stellaris - The Palpatine Simulator

“I promise I will lay down my Custodianship, as soon as this crisis has been evaded!” 😈

"Following the complete destruction of the Oblog system, even the squabbling diplomats of the Galactic Union cannot ignore this threat." > galactic union completely ignoring the contingency and a war in heaven

“Accept these emergency powers” Wait a minute... I’ve seen this before

When the endgame crisis fails to destroy the galaxy Player: "Fine I'll do it myself"

Pretty sure everyone is just going to become Emperor Palpatine...

Me, a Xenophile player when Nemesis is launched: BEHOLD THE PURGE CUBE, YOU XENO FLESH WILL BECOME A OFFERING TO OPEN THE GATES OF THE SHROUD

Me before watching : "uh? cool a new trailer from paradow, they're always cool!" Me after watching : "so when will the movie be in the theatre? oh wait, that's a trailer for a DLC, not for the next space blockbuster!"

Galactic Council: We must rise against this unprecedented threat together! Federation President: What? Send a couple battleships. Juggernaut and Titan? Tell me why should I worry about a space cube, when there is already psionic horror feasting on worlds on a daily basis at this side of the galaxy!!!

The trailer: "Beginning today we stand as ONE!" The game (probably): -> Galactic Community Priority Issue "Defeat the XXX Crisis" -> Everyone votes against -> Player is happy as now he is the XXX

-NO! You will not threaten the Galaxy, we stand united to fight you!!! -Ha-ha, large glowing cube goes BRRRRRRRRRRRRTTTTT

0:23 "We humbly accept the emergency powers the senate has bestowed upon us..." Humans: HA! I already see that! It's a classic! Aliens: What do you mean? This is breand news.

So... the star-eater class ship is a borg cube? lol

they aren’t even trying to hide the fact that it’s VERY heavily inspired by ROTS

Me: Look at me Endgame Crisis Factions : ... Me: Im the crisis now

Well it looks like my Federation is going to pull a horus Hersey with this final stand. Might as well as after the war in heaven and contingency most of the AI superpowers are either gone or battered and bruised to the point im stronger with my fleets and my concured civilizations fleets

Xenophiles: the system destroying Rubik's cube doesn't exist, it can't hurt you Xenophobes:

That speaker's got a good voice. I would say it's senatorial material. I wonder how he would sound yelling 'UNLIMITED POWER!".

The Republic will be reorganized into the first Galactic Empire

The most fascinating thing is that this trailer is more epic and much better directed than the final battle of Star Trek Picard.

Man not pointing fingers but by endgame standards their combined fleets look really small i guess the crisis will have free real estate

Me: "We humbly accept the emergency powers the senate has bestowed upon us...." Them : "See, it's all going to be fine now!" Me: "THE SENATE WILL BE REORGANIZED"

I love democracy.

We are the Criss, resistance is futile

Palpatin: Who are you?! Me: I am you, but better.

This is the first time that the Galactic Community is explicitly referred to as the Senate. I know there's the memes, but it's just been the Community in the past.

Gotta admit I got some excited feels when the lithoid ships flew into formation.

These trailers have downright movie quality at this point. This DLC is gonna be amazing!

Some empire: *"Fear the might of our colossus!"* The guy that just became the crisis: "So adorable, like a puppy. Kill it."

I swear each side brought 5 battleships 1 titan and 10 corvettes and they think they can hold back that massive cube? let the shadow be casted on the galaxy

Now Witness the Firepower of this fully armed and operational cube. but not today. now is time for a bed time story😄😄😄 do you ever heard the tragedy of darth plagueis the wise?

"Mesa prepose...we give emergency power to da supreme chancellor of da republic." Sure, I can't see this going badly. Is it time for my thunderous applause?

I love democracy I love this community, And I swear on behalf of my people we will lead the charge against this darkness. ~ field marshall of the Commonwealth of Man

🎶🎵Wake me up, when April 14 Ends!! 🎶🎵

you are getting better and better at animating these videos

So this is how democracy dies, with roaring applause.

This less than two minute trailer evoked a greater sense of urgency and drama than three Star Wars movies.

"Light the flame" In the next trailer it will be "SET THE GALAXY ON FIRE!"

0:45 _"Our differences shall become our strengths"_ Until the end of *this* crisis that is... That aside though, this trailer is amazing.

"Now I am become death. The destroyer of worlds" that quote but times a billion. THE DESTROYER OF STARS, BABYYYY.

I really would like a TV series based off this.

"I am the final crisis." -ASpec

1:07 BoRg cUbE cOnFirMed?

Your biological and technological distinctiveness will be added to our own, your culture will adapt to service us...

"the brighter the light the darker the shadow" thats not how that works

all our differences shall become our strengths beginning today we STAND AS ONE 0:45

I have a feeling the blue aliens from the federation trailer is behind everything going on

It's the subtle things that tell you that they pay attention to details. Anyone else notice that in the background of the Nemesis logo is a star map with the nemesis purple encroaching on the other sectors?

Come on Paradox Make a Stellaris movie already

Also...this makes for an excellent GTU intro after their last galaxy save...

Oh no the star eater really is boring cube, everything else looks amazing

Cube: "It's over Custodian, I AM the high ground!" Custodian: "You underestimate my power!" Cube: "Don't try it!"

I wish someone would make a single-player RPG with the Stellaris setting. It's the only game that's given me the same feeling from playing it as Mass Effect 1.

"We love democracy, we love the Community"

Sure the new game content is great and all but can we talk about that art for the ecumenopolis because oh my God I loved it

“I have become death, destroyer of worlds”

The powers you give us, we will lay down once this crisis has abaited!

"I love Democracy. I love the Republic."

"It has come to my attention that, with the humble nomination of the galactic custodian over 5 years ago, has officially beaten the Crisis, but with all great achievements, there are imminent questions that I, High Custodian of The Galactic Community will answer for you today. Now, the peace in our great galaxy will be prosperous, but too ensure the total security, protection, and unity of the nations of the galaxy, I am declaring emergency orders apon the Galactic Community, Senate, and Custodians, I am today, to safeguard the freedom of our Galaxy, and ensuring peace, and fairness, am dismantling the Galactic Senate, and community, and am herby declaring the First, Galactic, Imperium!"- High Custodian, Alinra Bolria

The attempt on destroying my Ring World system has left my empire scarred and deformed, but I assure you; my resolve has never been stronger!

We built this galaxy and we can melt it down just as easily!

The Seafood Conglomerate supports this action.

Giving Emergency powers to the leader of a galactic senate? That won't end poorly at all

Alright, we need a movie now, playing in the Stellaris-Universe. Or at least a cinematic short film. Those Cinematics are not enough to satisfy my needs as a Stellaris-loving gamer :D

I feel blessed. This is going to be released on my birthday. How lucky, thanks universe.

The song editing in this is a masterpiece, god damn!

So.. what happened to all the "hot code" streams that Wiz used to do? I greatly miss those, they also provided an oppurtunity for you (the devs) to get valuable feedback from your audience.

This is the fourth time I’ve watched this.

Love the new music in this.

Stellaris: Palpatine Edition

In order to ensure our security and enduring stability, the republic will be reorganized into the first galactic empire for a safe and secure society.

Bravely they rode, and well, Into the jaws of death, Into the mouth of Hell.

There is only one way for galactic everlasting peace, that is we, become one.

Forward Antares!

I know this hasn’t even come out yet but hopefully it doesn’t take long for console to get this, it looks badass.

That's a very dangerous square

(Imitating a typical Movie Trailer Announcer) Imagine the Galactic Community's gravest threat...was it's biggest defender... Coming April 15th.

will paradox just finally make a stellaris show now?

Meesa propose that the senate give immediately emergency powers to the supreme chancellor.

Ah yes can't wait to crush the threat with forced labo...I mean automated shipyards and gigastructural engineering

omg if you added a full on story mode with cut scenes like this id be in heaven

i knew the blorgs were up to no good !

"To all life; I address you today as your elected leader. As we squabbled amongst ourselves over petty interests, our enemy grew ever stronger. Now we witness the rise of a new end to our chapter in the pages of history, but this doesn't have to be. We have passed the Custodian Accords as a united collection of sentient life. We stand together united against those who declare our extinction. We will not tremble in the face of annihilation. We resist it. This will not be our end of life. This will end the chapter of "Conflict" but the beginning of the new chapter of our existence... Unity! As the center of our Galaxy lights the history of creation, we will light the way of our future. Together, we will be the victors of this new era! An era of peace. An era of unity. An era of progress. The Era of Life! May the Light of the Galaxy light our path to victory! May the light be with you all!" ~ Premier Liska, Custodian Accords, Galactic Union of Sentient Life

YESSSSSSSS LETS GOOOOOOO

0:51 Omg it looks like Mass Effect :o cant wait 4 release

This gives me goosebumps 😯😣🔥🔥🔥🔥

1:04, I can't be the only one who throught "We are the Borg. Lower your shields and surrender your ships. We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. Your culture will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile."

UNLIMITED POWER!!!

"The time has come my fellow sentients, to rally to a new banner. In unity lies strength, and already many of the factions have joined us. Out of the many we shall form an indivisible whole, capitulating only to a single throne, and from that throne I shall watch over you. From this day forward let no species make war on any other species, let no faction conspire against this new beginning, let no being consort with extra-dimensional powers, and to all the enemies of the galaxy seek not to bar our way, for we shall win through! No matter the cost."
