Civilization 7's post-release roadmap revealed

Civilization VII: A Roadmap to Global Domination

Civilization VII's launch is imminent, slated for February 11th, with early access for Deluxe and Founders Editions beginning February 6th. The game will be available across all major platforms: PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC, including Steam Deck compatibility. A day-one patch is also planned.

The developers, Firaxis Games and 2K, have declared the game "gold," signifying the completion of primary development and a high likelihood of on-time release.

Post-launch content is robust, beginning with the "Crossroads of the World" DLC, arriving in two parts this March. The first installment introduces Great Britain and Carthage as playable civilizations, along with the historical figure Ada Lovelace as a new leader. Three weeks later, the second part adds Simon Bolivar as a leader and Bulgaria and Nepal as new civilizations.

Further expansion is promised with the "Right to Rule" DLC, expected in Q2 or Q3 of 2025 (April-September). This DLC will include two additional leaders, four new civilizations, and fresh natural wonders.

March will also see the addition of new in-game events and natural wonders, including the Bermuda Triangle and Mount Everest. Firaxis has pledged ongoing improvements and challenges to enhance the gameplay experience.
