Civilization VII: A Roadmap to Global Domination
Civilization VII's launch is imminent, with a release date set for February 11th, 2024. Deluxe and Founders Edition owners gain five days early access, starting February 6th. A day-one patch will also be released. The game will be available across all major platforms: PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC, including Steam Deck compatibility.
Firaxis Games and 2K have declared the game "gold," signifying the completion of primary development and minimizing the risk of further delays.
The first DLC, "Crossroads of the World," arrives in a two-part March release. Part one introduces Great Britain and Carthage as playable civilizations, along with the new leader Ada Lovelace. Part two, launching three weeks later, adds Simon Bolivar as a leader, and Bulgaria and Nepal as new civilizations.
Further expansion is planned with "Right to Rule," slated for release in Q2 or Q3 of 2025 (April-September). This DLC will include two additional leaders, four new civilizations, and fresh natural wonders.
March also sees the addition of new in-game events and natural wonders, including the Bermuda Triangle and Mount Everest. Firaxis promises ongoing improvements and challenges to enhance the gameplay experience.
