Paradox Interactive's upcoming grand strategy game, Afterworld, aims to attract new players by incorporating strong role-playing game elements into its post-apocalyptic setting. Game director Dan Lind explained that the focus on discovery and cultural development, alongside RPG-like tribe origins, is intended to make the genre more accessible. The game builds upon Paradox's legacy of complex strategy titles like Crusader Kings III and Stellaris, but with a fresh approach to player onboarding.
