Hello Stellaris Community! We hope youve been enjoying the content from Stellaris: Season 08! Were here to let you know that as of today, November 26th, Season 08 will transition from a Steam Package to a Dynamic Bundle.

What does this mean to me?

If you already own Season 08 then these changes wont affect you or your content, and you can stop reading now and go back to loading pops into your Synaptic Lathe. If you only purchased one or more DLCs from Stellaris: Season 08, and want to pick up the rest at a discounted price, changing to a Dynamic Bundle now allows you to do that without paying for content that you already own. If you bought them all individually, and are sad that you dont get the Rick the Cube bonus portrait, you should also be able to claim it as part of the Season 08 Dynamic Bundle after this change. Early in the New Year, this Dynamic Bundle will be retired and the content added to the Ultimate Bundle, to make way for Season 09. But first, we wanted to give those people who didnt pick up the Season 08 Expansion Pass - and instead purchased only one or two of the DLCs - a chance to get the rest of the content at the same discount we offered the initial adopters. We will update you again closer to the retirement date with an exact date.
