Civilization VII is highly likely to be released on schedule

Firaxis Games and 2K have announced that Sid Meier's Civilization VII, the highly anticipated turn-based 4X strategy game, has gone gold. This milestone 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 exciting new features, many of which have been praised by reviewers. A key addition is the innovative Legend system, rewarding players for completing campaigns – a feature designed to encourage completion, given the series' notoriously lengthy playtime.

While a niche title, Sid Meier's Civilization VII ranks among the year's most anticipated games, though its pre-release buzz doesn't quite match the stratospheric hype surrounding Grand Theft Auto VI. Priced at the standard $70, pre-orders are currently open.
