Civilization will soon receive its next installment. A new trailer was shown at Gamescom. Once again, players can build an empire, but the game is expected to be even bigger than its predecessors.
What does the new trailer show? Fans of Civilization will be pleased with the images from the new trailer. Once again, you can lead your people through the centuries and build a true empire.
The trailer shows the beginnings of a people, the construction of cities, and various military units going head-to-head. All of this in the familiar hexagonal fields. The graphics are again quite colorful, featuring loving animations of the various units and figures.
Also, the cities and smaller details like wonders of the world already look impressive in the new trailer. You can see the Eiffel Tower, or even the launch of a rocket to the moon – likely another one of the possible victory options.
The developers reflect nostalgically
What else does the trailer tell? Right at the beginning, the developers speak up and take you back into the past. They talk about the creation of the first Civilization. According to the developers, it was created at a time when they were still figuring out what a video game could actually be.
The possibilities that the medium offered were still limited, yet the developers wanted to pack in as much as they could. That’s why they decided to incorporate the entire history of humanity into their game. The result was the first CIV, where you could build a great empire through the centuries.
CIV VII is expected to surpass its predecessors in terms of size and scope. We will find out what this looks like when the developers release more details about the game during Gamescom.
When will CIV VII be released? At the end of the trailer, the release date of the game is revealed. It is scheduled for February 11, 2025. Then, strategy fans can once again slip into the usual “Just one more turn” spiral and rise to become the great ruler with one of several victory conditions. A current leak has already revealed more about CIV VII – read on MeinMMO to find out more.
