There is nothing stated that indicates culture is gone.
And I also don't think it's strictly "one hex at a time." I think it was just a matter of wording and awkward translations. What I imagine the case will be is that your cities will still generate culture, and you'll still spread it out evenly from your city, just some terrains will take longer to bring into your control than others. And when you expand your borders, it isn't all surrounding tiles at once, but when each hex is ready to be expanded to. And you can use money to individually help a hex along.
At least, that's how I imagine it working.
