Originally created by legendary game designer, Sid Meier,
Civilization is a turn-based strategy game in which you
build an empire to stand the test of time. Explore a new land,
research technology, conquer your enemies, and go head-to-head with
history’s most renowned leaders as you attempt to build the
greatest civilization the world has ever known.
Now on Nintendo Switch, the quest to victory in Civilization
VI can take place wherever and whenever players want.
Key features for Sid Meier’s Civilization VI on Nintendo
Switch include:
- PLAY YOUR WAY: The path to
victory is the one you determine. Become the most scientifically
advanced civilization, dominate through sheer military power, or
become the foremost destination for the cultural arts.
- THE WORLD’S GREATEST LEADERS:
Play as one of 24 different leaders from various countries around
the world and throughout history. Build an empire of lucrative
trade routes with Cleopatra of Egypt, flex the military might of
your legions with Trajan of Rome, or develop a powerhouse of
culture with Hojo Tokimune of Japan. Each of the leaders can be
played any way you prefer, with unique abilities, units, and
infrastructure in their quest for victory.
- EXPANSIVE EMPIRES: See the
marvels of your empire spread across the map. Settle in uncharted
lands, improve your surroundings, build new districts, and see your
cities – and your civilization – prosper.
- ACTIVE RESEARCH: Unlock boosts
that speed your civilization’s progress through history. To advance
more quickly, use your units to actively explore, develop your
environment, and discover new cultures.
- DYNAMIC DIPLOMACY: Interactions
with other civilizations change over the course of the game, from
primitive first interactions where conflict is a fact of life, to
late game alliances and negotiations.
- EXCITING AND UNIQUE SCENARIOS:
Civilization VI for Nintendo Switch includes four playable
scenarios, each with a different setting and style of gameplay
inspired by history. Be part of the colonization of Australia in
“Outback Tycoon”, defend Poland from invaders in “Jadwiga’s
Legacy”, choose a Viking leader to plunder Europe in “Vikings,
Raiders, and Traders!”, or conquer the known world in the
“Conquests of Alexander.”
- COOPERATIVE AND COMPETITIVE
MULTIPLAYER: Up to 4 players can cooperate or compete for
supremacy via a wireless LAN.
