Sid Meier’s Civilization VII (XBSX/XB1)

Sid Meier’s Civilization® VII is a revolutionary new chapter in the award‐winning 4X turn‐based strategy series that empowers you to build the greatest empire the world has ever known. In this game, your strategic decisions—whether to pursue cultural, military, scientific, or economic victories—shape a unique historical legacy as you guide your civilization from the dawn of antiquity to the modern era.

A New Era of Strategic Depth
Civilization VII introduces a groundbreaking “Ages” system, where your playthrough is divided into three distinct epochs (Antiquity, Exploration, and Modern). At the end of each Age, you get a fresh start by selecting a new civilization, allowing you to mix and match iconic leaders, philosophers, scientists, and statesmen in ways that defy traditional historical boundaries. This innovative mechanic not only reinvents how you approach long-term strategy but also creates opportunities for emergent storytelling as your empire evolves over time .

Refined Gameplay and Immersive City-Building
Enjoy a completely overhauled tutorial experience and streamlined management systems that make it easier than ever to jump into complex 4X gameplay. Gone are the cumbersome builder units—instead, you develop your cities and towns directly, with improvements expanding your territory organically as your population grows. Enhanced diplomacy is driven by a new “Influence” currency, while navigable rivers and refined combat tactics add depth to both exploration and warfare .

Unprecedented Flexibility and Visual Splendor
Sid Meier’s Civilization VII lets you choose your leaders and civilizations independently, meaning you can pair historical figures with any culture to craft your own alternative histories. Coupled with a visually stunning presentation that brings diverse architectural styles and rich landscapes to life, each decision you make carves out a legacy that echoes through the Ages. Whether playing solo or challenging friends in cross-platform multiplayer, the game promises hundreds of hours of strategic conquest and discovery .

Available Soon Across Platforms
Set to launch on February 11, 2025, Civilization VII will be available on PC, macOS, Linux, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and Steam Deck. Developed by Firaxis Games and published by 2K, this title is poised to redefine the 4X genre for both newcomers and longtime fans of the series .
