Last week, the procession of pop songs on TV show America’s Got Talent was interrupted by a massive group performance of Baba Yetu, the Grammy-award winning Civilization IV theme.
Last month, dadabouin went and did something I’ve never seen accomplished in Civilization VI before: he built 34 wonders in the one city, arranged in a way that has me thankful Civ VI doesn’t have Independence Day’s landmark-destroying aliens in its faction lineup.
Civilization IV player WastinTime has achieved something I would never have thought was even remotely possible: winning a space race victory in the strategy classic by launching a rocket two centuries before Jesus was born.
Religion has been a powerful motivating force throughout human history, but some Civilization VI AIs are a little too into religion, at the expense of, well, pretty much everything else. It’s a real bug, and it’s all because of a typo.
From the same fanbase that brought you “building Oxford inside Oxford” and “building Petra outside Petra” comes this, “building Civilization V’s UN inside the UN”.
It took Civilization V two full expansions to become the classic it’s regarded as today. Civilization VI is halfway there.
It’s hard work, turning a video game into a board game.
One of the nine new factions coming with Civ VI’s first big expansion are the Cree, led by Poundmaker.
Hahahah, a $60 iPad game, in 2017, would you get a look at that. Only in this case, it’s not as insane as it sounds.
Another of my favourite Civ V factions will be returning to Civ VI next year, with the Dutch accidentally revealed a little early on local TV.
One of the new factions coming to Civ VI alongside the big new expansion will be Korea, a welcome return since they were so cool in Civ V.
Civilization VI had a strong launch and reviewed very well, but in November 2017, Civilization V—a 2010 video game—is more popular on Steam than its more modern successor.
Civilization VI is getting a new expansion, Rise and Fall, which is full of new features and civs. It’ll be out February 8, 2018. More info over here.
A mountain or two can be a nice bonus for a Civilization V spawn point, but XtraFalcon’s start here is something else.
Civilization VI’s South East Asian run continues, with Indonesia joining the Khmer as the two latest factions in the game.
After skipping Civ V, the Khmer are returning to the series in an update for Civilization VI.
It’s been almost a year since Civ VI was released, and in that time Firaxis has been trying to address some of the issues fans have had with the enormous and otherwise excellent game. The upcoming Fall Update continues this process.
There’s a long history of Civilization board games, from a 1980 title that kinda inspired the video game series to a number of versions (in 2002 and 2010) that have in turn been based on the video games. We can now add one more to the list, this time based loosely on Civilization VI.
Alongside the release of Nubia, Civilization VI has a “Summer Update” out today that makes a number of surprisingly major changes to the game.
