: This community-made expansion is essentially a "free DLC" that introduces an entirely new Asian-themed region with 130+ production buildings, new population tiers, and unique gameplay mechanics like seasonal weather. It can be easily installed via the in-game mod browser.

Some gaming platforms or stores may offer region-free or global versions of games and DLCs. Utilizing a VPN or changing the store region can sometimes allow players to access DLCs not available in their region.
