Firaxis Games and 2K have announced that the highly anticipated turn-based strategy game, Sid Meier's Civilization VII, has reached its gold master status. This signifies the completion of primary development, virtually guaranteeing a timely release on February 11th. The game boasts Steam Deck verification and will launch across all major platforms.
Civilization VII introduces several key improvements for longtime fans, with reviewers praising the overall positive impact of these innovations. A notable addition is the new Legend system, rewarding players for completing campaigns – a feature designed to encourage campaign completion, a challenge often faced by players given the game's extensive playtime.
While occupying a niche genre, Sid Meier's Civilization VII is undeniably one of the most eagerly awaited titles of the year, although its level of anticipation doesn't quite match the massive hype surrounding Grand Theft Auto VI. Priced at the standard $70, pre-orders are now open.
