New updates are being added at the bottom of this story…….

Original story (published on May 19, 2023) follows:

Paradox Development Studio recently released the v1.9.0.4 ‘Lance’ update that resolves some of the previously reported issues.

For instance, the patch fixes the bugs where players were unable to plan activities after cancelling the travel plans for ‘Petition Liege’ and ‘Pay Homage’ decisions or start tournaments.

The update also addressed the glitch where alliances formed through Diplomacy Intent in Grand Weddings got null and void the next day. However, it appears that some of the problems still remain unresolved.

According to reports (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10), multiple Crusader Kings III players are experiencing frequent crashes even after installing the latest v1.9.0.4 patch.

The issue has been persistent for quite some time and affects players across multiple platforms.
