Overall Stellaris: Megacorp brings a fair bit of new things to the game as well as changing some of the older systems. It may take a while to get used to the change, but it should prove to lengthen the longevity of the game. The new factions add great flavor and a different way of playing. The game stuttering and sometimes freezing midgame and beyond is the biggest issue with this DLC. You may want to wait a bit for some patches on this.

Critic reviews
- 7.0This is a great time to get back into the game. It's going to feel fresh in a way that games this well-established rarely do so far out from release. But there is simply not enough meat on the bones of this expansion to merit paying 20 bucks for it. The game's mechanical changes in the DLC are way too niche to be practical, and that's going to severely limit the value you get out of it past the first couple of experiments and full playthrough.
- 7.0MegaCorp is a decent inclusion to Paradox Interactive's spacefaring strategy sim. Sadly, it can be overshadowed by what the free update already provides to the core Stellaris experience.
- 6.5In the end, MegaCorp is extremely hard to rate. Most of the changes came in the 2.2 update, and for better or for worse, we are stuck with them. The additions brought by this DLC are mainly focused on expanding the economic side of the game to nearly dystopian levels, and as such is only a must have to those players who dream of creating their own interstellar corporate empire.
