Europa Universalis IV, one of my most anticipated releases of the year, is only a fortnight away. As we enter August, the finalpre-order bonushas been revealed by Paradox Interactive, and it’s a doozy: a free copy ofCrusader Kings IIand a savegame exporter.

The latter might not seem like a big deal, but it’s a real treat. The exporter will convert aCKIIsavegame file into aEUIVone, allowing players to keep their empire and their holdings, and experience the Renaissance altered by the centuries of medieval intrigue and conquest that played out in their game ofCrusader Kings.
