The latest title in the long-running strategy series was the biggest reveal at an event that celebrated small indie titles as much as big hitters
In a two-hour presentation that was short on major announcements, but big on independent titles, this year’s Summer Game Fest was dominated by one reveal – Civilization 7 is coming out in 2025.
The legendary strategy simulation series, which debuted back in 1991, hasn’t seen a fresh instalment for eight years. Although it seems publisher 2K accidentally leaked the announcement earlier in the day, it was still a treat for fans to see designer Sid Meier on video, introducing the new project standing in front of a table filled with Bafta awards.
