Buy Sid Meier's Civilization VI Xbox One key

Sid Meier's Civilization VI is a strategy game in which you lead a civilization through history and compete with other leaders for one of five victory conditions. Cities expand across the map, while active research in technology and culture unlocks new options. Rival leaders pursue agendas based on their historical traits.

Build your cities

Each district, wonder and improvement occupies its own hex, letting you shape how your cities spread across the map. Districts such as the Commercial Hub and Spaceport provide distinct bonuses, so you can choose what to build to suit your needs.

Advance through history

You develop your civilization by exploring, improving the environment and discovering new cultures, which can speed up your progress and unlock bonuses before other civilizations. Research covers both science and culture: the Civics tree opens new governments and cultural policies. You can cultivate a civilization to fit your playstyle or take a different approach each time you play.

Diplomacy and espionage

Diplomatic relationships change as the game progresses, from early encounters where conflict is common to late-game alliances and negotiations. Influence over nearby city-states can secure their diplomatic allegiance and grant powerful bonuses. You can also enlist spies to gather intelligence on rival civilizations, steal resources and topple governments.
