Galactic Civilizations IV Version 3.0 "Hyperlane" Update Next Month

A post on Steam from Stardock announces plans for a major patch for Galactic Civilizations IV to update the 4X space strategy game to version 3.0. This "Hyperlane" update will arrive on June 12th adding its namesake hyperlanes to the map, which can speed up interstellar travel between specific star systems while maintaining the game's overall free-form space navigation. This will also add a Fleet Supply feature to reduce micromanagement along with a revamped user experience. Here's the intro from an overview on Steam:

Galactic Civilizations IV is closing in on a large and important milestone in its development history with the imminent release of version 3.0, the Hyperlane Update, with a lot of work done in previous versions to prepare the way for the incoming additions and changes to the game too. Now it’s time to take you through some of the main features of v3.0. This is an overview rather than a deep-dive, and we’ll be releasing more developer journals on these features soon.
