What Is Civilization VII?

Sid Meier’s Civilization VII continues the legendary strategy series that began in 1991. Developed by Firaxis, this game allows you to select a historical leader to guide your civilization to global dominance. Build your cities, erect architectural wonders, and expand your empire through conquest or diplomacy with neighboring civilizations.

Civ VII offers flexibility in how you lead your people. You can stick to historical accuracy or diverge to create a unique narrative. A significant new feature in Civilization VII is the dynamic civilization change through three Ages: Antiquity, Exploration, and Modern. Your chosen leader remains constant throughout, but you'll switch civilizations as you progress.
