Civ 7: Journalists React to Final Previews

Civilization VII is on the horizon, and early previews paint a promising picture. While some initially questioned Firaxis' significant gameplay departures from previous installments, the overall response from gaming journalists has been overwhelmingly positive. So, what's got reviewers excited?

The dynamic era system allows players to refocus their civilization's priorities with each new age, ensuring past accomplishments remain relevant throughout the game. A new leader selection feature rewards frequently used rulers with unique bonuses, adding a personal touch to repeated playthroughs. The game's multiple eras, spanning antiquity to modernity, offer distinct and self-contained gameplay experiences within each time period. Importantly, Civilization VII offers the flexibility to adapt to unforeseen challenges. One preview highlighted a playthrough where neglecting military development in favor of literacy and inventions led to a near-disaster, but ultimately showcased the game's ability to allow players to recover and re-strategize effectively.

Sid Meier's Civilization VII launches February 11th on PlayStation, PC, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch, and is even Steam Deck verified.
