Firaxis Games and publisher 2K have exciting news for strategy game enthusiasts: Sid Meier’s Civilization VII has officially gone gold. This milestone signals that the main development phase is complete, paving the way for a smooth release on February 11, barring any unforeseen issues. Fans can look forward to diving into this turn-based 4X strategy game on multiple platforms, including the Steam Deck, where it's been verified for optimal performance.
Civilization VII promises a fresh experience with several exciting updates, and according to reviewers, these changes are overwhelmingly positive. One of the standout features is the new Legend system, designed to reward players for completing campaigns. This addition comes as a response to the issue of long development times, which often lead players to abandon their campaigns before finishing them.
While Sid Meier’s Civilization VII may not generate the same level of buzz as a title like Grand Theft Auto VI, it remains one of the most eagerly awaited games of the year within its niche. Priced at a standard $70, the game is now available for pre-order, inviting fans old and new to embark on their next epic journey through history.
