Firaxis has announced Civilization VI, the next entry in its long-running Civilization series, which first appeared a quarter of a century ago.
The sixth game will fundamentally change the way cities operate within the world, for the first time allowing cities to expand across the map.

Firaxis is also promoting a new feature it’s calling ‘Active Research’ where your empire’s research will advance more quickly if you explore and discover new cultures.
