Civilization 7 Guides

We had early confirmation from Firaxis that Civilization 7 was officially in development back in early 2023, but we didn’t get word of an official Civilization 7 release date until Gamescom 2024. Despite a few complaints, including those in our own Civ 7 review, the Civ 7 release date came and went, but with improvements and DLCs to come from the 4X game, here are all the Civ 7 guides and walkthroughs you need.

Early access was available from February 5, 2025 to those who preordered the Deluxe or Founders edition of the strategy game. Civ 7 launched on PC via Steam, 2K Games, and the Epic Games Store for Windows, Linux, and MacOS users. It’s also available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch consoles.

Civ 7 narrator

A new entry in the series means an all-new narrator to bring the annals of your civilization’s history to life. Following in the footsteps of her Game of Thrones colleague Sean Bean, Gwendoline Christie takes up the mantle as Civ 7’s narrator, as revealed in an exclusive trailer ahead of release. Christie also follows in the footsteps of the iconic Leonard Nimoy, who also left a lasting impression as the omnipresent voice of Civilization.
Those are all the guides you need to get into Civilization 7 and its selection of new mechanics. If you’re still playing the last entry in the series, we’ve got plenty of Civ 6 guides too, but you could also try one of our other favorite strategy games if you’re looking for something new.
