The release announcement was highlighted with an engrossing cinematic teaser trailer.
Gameplay Features
Following its predecessors, Sid Meier’s Civilization VII will enable players to lead their chosen civilization. Players will be allowed to expand their borders, construct cities and wonders, venture into wars or diplomacy, and innovate with newer technologies, amongst other gameplay features.
Additional Details and Future Announcements
While the development team at Firaxis Games has been closely guarded about further details on Sid Meier’s Civilization VII, the Steam page revealed that the game would include full Russian localization (both text and voice).
