Even ‘Civilization VI’ is getting a battle royale mode

Firaxis and 2K are taking an all-too-familiar approach to revitalizing a game: tack on a battle royale mode in a bid to capture the Fortnite crowd. They've released an update to Civilization VI that introduces Red Death, a 12-player competitive mode...

Civilization VI Takes World Domination to Nintendo Switch

I can say with ease that the best video game I have ever played, and have played for years, is Civilization VI. When I feel like playing a game on my PC, that is normally the game I go to. While Civ VI has been out on computers for a long time, it hasn’t come to all the consoles like you might have expected. That’s about to change for Nintendo Switch.

Switch owners will get the turn-based strategy game on November 16, 2018, and can expect updates and improvements to the original game. It also comes with content packs that add scenarios and leaders to the original game that PC gamers had to buy separately.

That includes the Vikings scenario pack, Poland civ and scenarios, Australia civ and scenario, and Persia/Macedon civ and scenario pack. This game is awesome and if you have never played it, add it to your list of must-own games.

Civilization VI Cities are Something Completely Different

One of my all-time favorite video games is Civilization V. The ability to build an empire and take it from the stone ages up to space flight is incredibly fun. I had high hopes for Civilization: Beyond Earth but that game turned out to be pretty crappy. I was absolutely bummed when I realized that Civ V won’t run correctly on Windows 10 either.

Now that Civilization VI is in the works, some tidbits about the game are flowing out. One of the latest bits of news is that the cities in this game will be nothing like cities in the old game. Cities are no longer constricted to a single tile and will take up multiple tiles on the game map.

The new mechanic is called the “district system,” and to build new buildings you will need to expand the city by building districts on neighboring tiles. You’ll have options like market districts, religious districts, theater districts, and more. Check out the video walkthrough from E3 for more details.

I am looking forward to this game more than any other launching this year.
