Dear Citizens of the Suzerainverse,
We are deeply honored to proclaim the arrival of the 3.1 “Sovereign” Update for the Suzerain DLC, The Kingdom of Rizia. Step once more into the reign of His Majesty, King Romus Toras, to deliberate tradition and restore power across the glorious lands of Rizia.
With the 3.1 “Sovereign” Update, we introduce richer strategic and narrative complexity. Players will wield greater authority over governance, navigate evolving relationships with advisors and foreign powers, and confront new dilemmas that will test the very limits of their regal leadership.
This is a massive overhaul update, and the dawn of a new Rizia.



The crowning features of the 3.1 “Sovereign” Update include:

A Dozen New Scenes – Experience new dialogues, including a major story conclusion. Interact more with nobles, your loyal dog, and returning characters to deepen relationships and unlock storylines with greater impact on outcomes. A new game turn with ending content and deeper epilogues.
Royal Decrees Expansion – Build factories for the industry, sanctuaries for the people, and pass laws for those you favor. Expanded content and a refined decree system offer deeper control over the kingdom, with new religious, welfare, and order decrees providing over 45 alternative ways to shape the country.
New Narratives, New Challenges, New Solutions - With over 40 added decisions, face fresh crises and dilemmas with deeper storylines, including a reworked national instability, religious unrest, and sabotage. Tackle new events and expanded war mechanics with a full airforce system and smarter enemy AI. Manage a dynamic economy with new elements like revamped trade, tourism, drug crime, and religious happiness dynamics.
Enhanced Visuals & UI Improvements - New character art for both Rizia and Sordland brings added polish to key scenes. The user interface has been refined with clearer royal decree categories, an improved resource modifier display, and a smoother story selection experience for more intuitive navigation.
Performance & Progress Enhancements – Enjoy improved performance optimization for a smoother gameplay experience. The new Torpor Account system introduces cloud save sync, achievement tracking, and a leveling system. Over 30 new achievements will be available at launch, letting you track your journey and progress across platforms.




The Kingdom of Rizia 3.1 "Sovereign" Update also marks a significant moment for Torpor Games, as we are now self-publishing this new phase of Suzerain and actively collaborating with Caboodle to broaden the community experience and visibility of our games.



The Kingdom of Rizia DLC "Sovereign" Update will be 20% off until May 20th, making it the perfect time to jump in. Following the official launch, The Kingdom of Rizia will increase in price to $14.99, to reflect the added value and enhancements, making the initial release period the optimal time for you to play at the most favorable price point.
Please note that the 3.1 Update requires starting a new save to be played. The previous save system will no longer function due to the implementation of a new technical infrastructure. However, we understand the value of preserving the legacy version 3.0.9 for those who wish to access it for nostalgic purposes.
Follow these simple steps to access Suzerain's legacy build:

Open your Steam library.
Right-click on Suzerain and select "Properties."
Go to the "Betas" tab.
Choose the "legacy3.0.9" branch.
Download and play.

It's important to mention that the old version will not receive any further support or updates. We've introduced the 3.0.9 branches primarily to support players with in-progress saves, as we recognize the critical importance of accommodating their ongoing game experiences.
