Civilization 7 Post-Release Plans Unveiled

by Lucas Apr 19,2025

Get ready, strategy fans! The first downloadable content (DLC) for Civilization VII, named "Crossroads of the World," is set to roll out in two exciting phases this March. In the initial stage, you'll command both Great Britain and Carthage, and you'll have the unique opportunity to meet Ada Lovelace, the pioneering computer scientist who joins the game as a new leader. Just three weeks later, the second phase kicks off, introducing Simon Bolivar as a leader and expanding your empire-building options with new civilizations, Bulgaria and Nepal.

Looking ahead to 2025, the "Right to Rule" DLC is slated for release between April and September. This expansion will bring two more leaders to the table, along with four new civilizations and awe-inspiring natural wonders to explore and conquer.

Firaxis is committed to enhancing your Civilization VII experience beyond these DLCs. Starting in March, expect new in-game events and the addition of natural wonders like the Bermuda Triangle and Everest, which will add fresh challenges and strategic depth to your gameplay.
