Source?

Why the hell is this on Switch... Civ VI had sacrifices running in it. Not sure how ambitious this will be now.

Time to nuke the world again.

Switch indicates very low CPU requirements unless they have a very watered down version.

 

[Mercador]

I don't mind the Switch port, at least we'll be able to play with a controller so I expect loosing some turns on the Steam Deck. I noticed HDR too on the Steam page.

[YOU PC BRO?!]

No point of announcing this without any gameplay. We all knew there would be another Civ game. Such an empty reveal.

 

[Hudo]

Every civ will be purchasable as DLC!

 

[nemiroff]

Anticipating those moments when time slips away like sand through fingers, leaving behind a trail of unachievements. I will play this game..

because the port of 6 "significally exceeded expectations"

also it's not like civ games necessitate of raw power to get better, it's all about systems and how they work as a whole

To be fair, the last Civ game with ambition was Civ 4.

Civ 6 was very ambitious....
...at selling the most DLCs.

Don't worry, as soon as they figure out how to apply this to XCOM, we gonna see XCOM 3.

The biggest deal is the Ram. Limiting yourself to making a strategy game that works on a 4gb device in 2025, especially when Nintendo's next console will be out, is not something I was expecting. Civ VI did chug at the end of turns on the Switch too lategame so yeah, they also need to make sure all the AI and other processing runs in a reasonable time on a 2017 mobile cpu.

 

[Shake Your Rump]

A good thing about this announcement is that it triggered Steam sales on the series… except for the best game: Civ 4. So bizarre.

I’ve been playing Civ Revolution on 360 lately and it has me craving Civ 4 again. Unfortunately, I only own it on the original physical CD. I see it regularly goes on sale for $3, so I’m not about to pay $25. I guess I’ll satisfy myself either the second best game in the series: Civ 5.

I know but those cinematics trailer (like Dune) don't worth it in my opinion, no gameplay = no idea how it will be.

 

[Klik]

If CIV 7 is also releasing on last gen PS4/X1 after being 5 YEARS into current gen, why then CIV 6 didn't release on PS3/X360 too?
Its so weird,questionable and huge red flag to release AAA game in 2025 for last gen,especially considering its 4x strategy game that relies on good CPU/RAM/SSD

 

[Bitmap Frogs]

unless that switch is a placeholder for switch 2, god save us...

 

[dorkimoe]

Im sure this is sacrilege to say in here but i wish we'd get another civ revolution for us simpletons
