What Is Civilization VII?
Sid Meier’s Civilization VII is the latest chapter in a strategy game series that began in 1991. Developed by Firaxis, it allows you to choose a historical leader to guide your civilization to global supremacy. You can construct cities, erect architectural marvels, and expand your empire through conquest or diplomacy with neighboring civilizations.
The game offers flexibility in how you lead your civilization, allowing you to follow historical paths or create your own unique narrative. A standout feature in Civ 7 is the ability to switch civilizations across three distinct Ages: Antiquity, Exploration, and Modern, while retaining your chosen leader throughout the game.
