• See the marvels of your empire spread across the map like never before. Each district, wonder, and improvement is built on its own hex, allowing you to customize your city to your heart’s content.

• Build better than your opponents, place yourself strategically for your allies, and become the best civilization on Earth.

• Boost your civilization’s progress through history to unlock powerful bonuses before anyone else! To advance more quickly, use your units to actively explore, develop your environment, and discover new cultures.
  
• Research isn’t just limited to science. Explore the Civics tree to unlock powerful new governments and cultural policies
  
• Cultivate the civilization that fits your playstyle, or switch it up every time you play!

• As the game progresses, so do your diplomatic relationships. From primitive first interactions where conflict is a fact of life, to late game alliances and negotiations.
  
• Carry influence with nearby city states to gain its diplomatic allegiance and earn game-changing city-state bonuses
