Who is the new narrator?
Gwendoline Christie, known for her sharp English accent, has been chosen as the narrator for the events in Civiziliation 7. Fans may recognize her from her roles in Games of Thrones and Star Wars: The Force Awakens. She is the inaugural female narrator in the Civilization franchise.
Following Gamescom 2024, Firaxis hosted a livestream where they showcased gameplay and revealed a highly anticipated detail for Civilization players: the identity of the narrator.
Gameplay
Looks like a Civilization game.
Firaxis intends to continue supporting Civilization 7 for many years, as it represents a significant evolution in gameplay. As always, the objective is to lead your civilization through different stages, forming alliances and engaging in warfare to achieve your objectives.
The gameplay for Civilization 7 will see several significant modifications, such as:
- Your story will link different civilizations across time. Rather than sticking with the same leader throughout, you’ll hand over leadership to someone new as you move to the next Age.
- Each Age is created as a historical sandbox, with unique technologies, units, resources, powers, and other features specific to that Age.
- Leaders are independent to civilizations. You can mix and match to your heart’s content, staying true to “Civilization’s spirit of experimentation.”
- Philosophy, Religion, and Science also serve as a source of inspiration for leaders, not only politicians, as it’s been in the past.
- There will be precise historical routes that you can either adhere to or deviate from.
