- Update of minimum requirements for Age of Wonders: Planetfall - 14 December 2023
Hello everyone! Starting next year, both Paradox Launcher and Steam will stop the support of Windows 7, 8, and 8.1. Please read more information here. What does it mean for your experience? Since we will no longer support the Launcher for Windows 7, 8 and 8.1, it means that the future versions of our Launcher will *not* run under these old OSes. Any launcher update beyond that point will cause it to stop working on above systems, and will, in turn, make it not possible to launch our games. Some of you who had their launchers update are likely experiencing that already. Other details: We strongly recommend you consider doing the free OS update to supported Windows versions, like Windows 10 or 11. Both for Launcher compatibility and personal security. In the coming weeks, we’ll update minimal requirements for our games and DLCs on our storefronts, to reflect this change. Going forward, we…

Two weeks ago we teased a balance patch, since then we've used our Open Beta to get community feedback on the proposed changes and we're very happy with the feedback we've received during this process.
