From Press Release:
March 2, 2026 – Hooded Horse and Mohawk Games are excited to announce a brand new DLC for historical 4X strategy game Old World, titled Empires of the Indus. This add-on throws players into a vibrant, turbulent world grappling with the rise of mighty dynasties and challenger states that shaped the region for centuries to come. It will release on March 30, 2026 via Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store.
From the mighty Mauryas, who founded one of the greatest Iron Age empires under the rule of Emperor Ashoka, to the nomadic horse lords of the Yuezhi who transformed the region as the Kushan Empire, and the illustrious, culturally rich Sangam kingdoms of Tamilakam, players will spread their domain across South Asia – from the northern reaches of the Indus valley, to the southern tip of the subcontinent. Each faction has its own unique mechanics, units, and buildings, such as:
- Establishing Buddhism as a new, fifth, world religion under the Maurya
- Bringing the tribes to heel with unique vassalization missions as the Yuezhi
- Engaging in political rivalry and fighting for dominance between the three Tamilakam families
Empires of the Indus also introduces Hinduism, the Huns as a fearsome tribe that come with their own special events, four new wonders to construct, a new Jungle vegetation type, new maps, and over 200 events, 60 ambitions, 11 Cognomens, and four rare resources.
Old World – Empires of the Indus will be available on PC via Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store on March 30, 2026.
Old World is available to buy on PC via Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store for $39.99 / £34.99 / €39.99 / ¥3,980. There are six other DLCs currently available.
