What Is Civilization VII?
Sid Meier’s Civilization VII is the latest installment of a strategy game series that dates allllllll the way back to 1991. Developed by Firaxis, it lets you pick a leader from history to lead your people to global domination. You can build your city, populate it with architectural wonders, and expand your rule either through conquest or cooperation with your neighboring civilizations.
You have a lot of leeway in how you steer progress for your people. You can do it in a true-to-history sort of way, or you can veer off from the textbook stories to forge a path that’s all your own.
The biggest new feature in Civ 7 is that you don’t play as a single civilization from start to finish. Instead, for each run through the game, you’ll pick a new civilization to play as during each of three Ages: Antiquity, Exploration, and Modern. The only thing that stays with you as you play is the leader you’ve chosen.
