Paradox announced that Victoria II is getting an expansion. That's hardly a surprise though, I've been expecting this since the game hasn't had a single expansion since release(and Paradox releases expansions pretty often). Victoria II: A House Divided like any Paradox expansion, further refines the game and adds new systems that is bound to excite any grognard. It's due out Q1 2012. Check out the press release and key features after the jump...
