Crossroads of the World, the first Civilization VII DLC, arrives in March, launching in two parts. The first introduces Great Britain and Carthage as playable civilizations, alongside the new leader Ada Lovelace, a pioneering figure in computer science. Three weeks later, the second installment adds Simon Bolivar as a leader, and Bulgaria and Nepal as new civilizations to conquer.
Right to Rule, the second DLC, is slated for release in Q2 2025 (April-September), bringing two more leaders, four additional civilizations, and new natural wonders to the game.
Firaxis is committed to ongoing expansion and improvement. March will see the addition of new in-game events and natural wonders, including the Bermuda Triangle and Mount Everest.
