Buy Sid Meier's Civilization VII Founders Edition PC key

Sid Meier's Civilization VII is a turn-based strategy game in which you guide an empire through the Antiquity, Exploration and Modern Ages. You expand your territory, develop technologies, build Settlements and architectural Wonders, and compete or cooperate with other civilizations as you explore the world's unknown reaches. You can play solo or online with others.

Shape your empire

In each Age, choose whether to keep the same Time-Tested civilization, evolve into a new identity for the next Age, or combine elements through hybridization. Scientific, cultural, militaristic and economic milestones achieved during an Age unlock advantages in the next, giving you decisions about when and how to change your empire's identity and strategy.

You pursue Triumphs, attribute-based objectives that shape your civilization's story. As each Age expands the game's scope, it also brings opportunities to borrow elements from other civilizations, unlock bonuses and achieve Victory in different ways. You can order Commanders to move armies as one, use revamped combat mechanics, and equip swappable leader bonuses across campaigns with Mementos.

Leaders and civilizations

Choose from a diverse roster of historical leaders, including heads of state known for military or political skill and visionaries who shaped philosophy, science, human rights and other fields. Your chosen leader remains with you across the Ages and has a unique ability that can reinforce or redirect your strategy. For the first time in the series, leader and civilization selection are separate, letting you mix and match their gameplay bonuses.

Explore and expand

Your empire's cultural styles appear in its architecture and Unit designs. You can traverse navigable rivers, explore undiscovered parts of the map and extend your borders by founding Cities or specialized Towns. As your territory grows, its vistas, metropolises and frontier settlements connect across the changing landscape.

Online multiplayer

Compete online in campaigns spanning multiple Ages or matches set in a single Age. Cross-play lets PC and console players play together. Antiquity and Exploration Age matches support up to five players, while Modern Age matches support up to eight; map-size restrictions may apply to some cross-play games.
