Paradox heeft een nieuwe uitbreiding voor Europa Universalis IV aangekondigd. De Common Sense uitbreiding draait rond het uitbreiden van de rol van religie en politiek in de game, wat twee zaken zijn die een oorlogsconflict kunnen verhinderen, of aanwakkeren natuurlijk. De uitbreiding verschijnt 9 juni.
- Parliaments: The English crown and other constitutional systems of government can now use their flexible system to pass laws through parliaments
- National Churches: Protestant kingdoms can customize their new faith and make it a true partner to the throne.
- New Religious Systems: Buddhism and Protestantism both get fresh coats of faith-based paint
- New Options For Subject States: Once just tiny money faucets, recent expansions have made vassals and colonial nations more useful. Common Sense gives you new tools to exploit them or keep them in line
- Government Ranks: As you invest in the development of your nation, you can climb from a small duchy to a major empire, unlocking new benefits.
- New Government mechanics: Theocracies will have new actions and mechanics to highlight their unique character, and the Holy Roman Empire can create Free Cities
