Civilization VII: Anticipated On-Time Release

Firaxis Games and 2K have announced that the highly anticipated turn-based 4X strategy game, Sid Meier's Civilization VII, has reached the gold master stage. 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 exciting enhancements, generally well-received by early reviewers. A noteworthy addition is the new Legend system, rewarding players for campaign completion. This innovative feature aims to encourage players to fully experience the game's extensive campaigns, a common challenge in previous iterations due to their length.

While belonging to a niche genre, Sid Meier's Civilization VII ranks among the year's most eagerly awaited titles, although its pre-release buzz doesn't quite match the phenomenal hype surrounding Grand Theft Auto VI. Priced at the standard $70, pre-orders are currently open.
