Stellaris' new Biogenesis expansion lets you be a sapient planet or home-grow your own cosmic leviathan

Your very own cosmic leviathan, from the Biogenesis expansion for Stellaris.

Sci-fi sandbox strategy sim Stellaris will probably continue expanding until either the heat-death of the universe, or it encompasses every single notable genre trope in existence. Today, it grew a meaty little chunk of new content with the Biogenesis expansion, part of its ninth season of DLC.

With this expansion, players will be able to bio-engineer their species even further, create fleets of fleshy living craft, or commune with a fractured hive-mind in a bunch of new story vignettes. But what's probably the most interesting option is the new Wilderness player start, which Paradox have boastingly called "the most transformative Origin we have ever added to the game" in a recent dev diary. Take a first look at the new flesh in the launch trailer below.
