As someone who has spent countless hours immersed in the strategic world of Civilization, I eagerly anticipate the arrival of Sid Meier’s Civilization 7. The intriguing details about the new crisis mechanic, linked with the Age system, have piqued my interest and set my gaming spirit ablaze.
As a dedicated gamer, I’ve been eagerly anticipating updates on the challenges that could potentially shake up my digital kingdoms in Sid Meier’s Civilization 7. Recently, Shaun Wilson, one of the key team members, spilled some beans about these game-altering events in a brief video published on X and YouTube.
Previously, we’ve caught wind of the crisis, yet we never got to put its workings to the test. Developers at Firaxis Studios, however, have subtly suggested that this feature is connected with the updated Ages system. The transition between civilizations, in essence, could be a consequence of the downfall of the previous one – particularly during times of crisis.
Wilson explained that each of the three stages within the “seventh” Civilization will experience a distinct crisis, which is an unforeseen in-game occurrence impacting all participating nations. During the earliest eras, challenges such as epidemics and attacks from barbarian hordes can be expected.
Each crisis brings about a variety of outcomes, represented as cards featuring unique “guidelines” that can be beneficial or detrimental. For instance, these may involve doubling the expense of troop maintenance, which could impact their performance in conflicts with foreign nations, boosting research levels at the cost of less gold income, and lowering city satisfaction for every level of leadership. Furthermore, crises can influence religion and resource distribution.
As a dedicated fan, I’m pondering over the possibility that these “regulations” in Civilization VII could be customizable, as there seems to be an option for selection hinted in the screenshot shared by the developer. This speculation arises because Wilson didn’t explicitly state this, but it could add a fresh layer of depth to the game. The crisis feature is another exciting element that promises to introduce variety across the three ages, especially during the final age. Each session could offer unique experiences due to the varying challenges posed by these crises and the decline of each age.
Wilson didn’t share too many new details, just confirming what the players had guessed or heard before from Firaxis Games. Maybe we’ll get more insights about the crisis during the next game preview before it launches.
Sid Meier’s Civilization 7 will be released on February 11, 2025, on PC, PS5, and XSX/S.
