Prepare for a psionic enhancement in Stellaris with the upcoming Shadows of the Shroud DLC, set for release on September 22. This expansion focuses on revitalizing the psionic ascension path, allowing civilizations to engage with a mysterious realm known as the Shroud. Players will be able to establish connections with powerful cosmic beings, referred to as “patrons”.
In this DLC, players will navigate three main stages:
- Preparing to pierce the veil,
- Engaging with the Patrons,
- Choosing an ally and facing the associated rewards or consequences.
Additionally, a new Shroud Panel will visualize your attunement to the Shroud, making it easier to track your journey and the potential dangers that come with it.

As your powers grow, your psionic influence will expand across the galaxy, affecting various systems and their dynamics. This update marks the third overhaul of Stellaris’ ascension paths, following the Machine Age and BioGenesis expansions.
