“Game balance is constantly a work in progress,” said Brian Clair, the VP of Publishing for Stardock who worked extensively on the update. “This version is huge - our major focus was to completely overhaul the game balance and optimize performance.”

“GPUs and CPUs are constantly evolving,” said Clair. “We wanted to make sure that the benchmark evolved with it. We removed redundant units and armies, revised to show more unit types, and updated camera views and positions for an overall better look.”
