What Is Civilization VII?
Sid Meier’s Civilization VII is the latest entry in a storied strategy game series that began in 1991. Developed by Firaxis, it allows you to select a historical leader to guide your civilization towards global dominance. You can construct cities, marvel at architectural wonders, and expand your influence through conquest or diplomacy with neighboring civilizations.
In Civilization VII, you have the freedom to shape your civilization's path, either adhering closely to historical narratives or crafting a unique journey. A standout feature in Civ 7 is the dynamic civilization selection, where you choose a new civilization to lead during each of three Ages: Antiquity, Exploration, and Modern. The only constant throughout your playthrough is the leader you've chosen.
