Gameplay
Sunset Invasion adds a fictional event where the Aztec Empire invades Europe. The feature was created as a way to counterbalance the invasion of the Mongol Empire, which usually conquers large sections of the eastern half of the game map while leaving the west untouched.[1] The DLC added an Aztec culture and religion to the game, as well as an "Aztec disease".[2]

The DLC was announced on October 31, 2012, and released on November 15 of that year.[3][4] Initial reactions to the DLC noted it as the first alternate history DLC created by the Paradox Development Studio.[4]
Reception
Sunset Invasion received mixed reviews from critics. Konstantin Fomin of Riot Pixels gave a positive review, rating it at 80% and declaring that it would "take you on a rollercoaster ride".
