Microsoft has just updated its popular Galactic Reign strategy game for Windows 8, providing users with some important bug fixes supposed to make it run faster on all devices equipped with Microsoft’s new operating system.

While the release notes only point to changes addressing the previously reported issues, Galactic Reign will most likely provide enhanced performance, regardless of whether you’re using it on a desktop computer or on a Windows RT tablet.

“Galactic Reign is a head-to-head game of tactical expansion and conquest. You and your opponent colonize planets, design ships, and build fleets as you fight for domination of the galaxy. Ship design is crucial, as you must predict what their opponent is building and construct ships to counter it,” the game description reads.

As you most likely know, the game is not available with a freeware license, but a trial version is also available in the Store for those who wish to give it a try before buying it.
