In June 2026, the developers Hooded Horse and Pavonis Interactive announced that the grand‑strategy game Terra Invicta would receive its first expansion, titled Dark Skies. The DLC was officially launched on 27 July 2026 across PC platforms—including Steam, GOG, the Epic Games Store and the Microsoft Store—priced at $9.99 with a limited‑time discount.

Dark Skies introduces two alternate‑history scenarios: one set after a nuclear apocalypse triggered by the Cuban Missile Crisis, tasking players with rebuilding global stability; the other placed in 2003 during the US invasion of Iraq, confronting covert alien forces that predate the base‑game storyline. The expansion also adds new visual assets, featuring NASA‑inspired spaceship designs and industrial sci‑fi aesthetics for Earth's space forces.
