What unique Wonder? They have UU, UB and 2 abilities.

Good to have crazy ol' Monty back. Sounds like they kept the same voice actor too.

Confirmed: these videos do not mention every unique bonus (unique wonder never came up in the video).
Also confirmed, I will not preorder in light of there withholding civs for ransom. I'm waiting til summer at least now.

Well, as a strong fan of the Aztecs this is a mixed bag.
PRO:
+ They chose Montezuma I and not the II. That's great!
+ The eagle warrior can turn defeated enemies into Builders. That's historical accurate and pretty useful. It's been my suggestion for the aztecs for many years, so it's like a dream made true (?).
+ There's an aztec wonder!
+ The bonus seem well rounded.
CONS:
- Montezuma once again sports a very exaggerated feather... thing. Why does it seem like they're growing from his back? I'm quite sure @Ehecatzin will have a word to say about this.
- The UU is once again a replacement for the ancient warrior. I had hopes at least it would be a classical swordsman or something.
- The geography is not very relevant to the aztecs, in contrast with all other civs revealed by now. It seems like a wasted opportunity: they could have had floating gardens as a district or a building, bonus to lakes, use lakes to build districts...
- While well-rounded, the bonus are somewhat bland.

IT'S NOT A UNIQUE WONDER..
It clearly lists it as "WONDER" and not "UNIQUE WONDER" people!

Not a unique Wonder. It comes with the Aztecs as part of the DLC.

I don't think it's a unique wonder, any civ can build it, it just comes with the Aztecs as part of this DLC.
EDIT: Eagle Pursuit beat me to it
Pros:
Amazing civ as all others, each civilization in Civ6 is like 3 civs of previous game combined regarding diversity and impact of its bonuses on the gameplay. Love civilization designs so far - and those are the most "basic" "obvious" civilizations, what awaits us later?
Cons:
Aztecs as DLC?! Come on, in every previous civ iteration ever they were included in base game... TSL map balance will be really screwed on release without dlcs.

My bad, basically the listing of the Wonder in the page at the end of the video made it look (to me) like they were all uniques. It seems though that the Wonder is available to all Civs and just included in the DLC.

They're (as of now) equilivent of Mongolia. They're FREE DLC. They just come 90 days later.

I read it that way too. Overall, I'm happy they chose an Aztec World Wonder at last.

Giving a bonus for luxury ressources is kind of a geography utilisation no?
+ It doesn't look like feathers to me, it looks like leaves now i've look too closely, so now i cannot unsee leaves ...
Maybe it's semantics, but this is free after 90 days so is it really DLC? I guess free DLC. I would guess it does not count towards the digital deluxe DLCs.

And several others beat you as well
I've edited my original post so hopefully that puts an end to the confusion.

There's a Great Person(?) at 1:47 or so. It's a woman!
I was actually expecting a unique Aquaduct-district building or something after the opening sentence. Aw, well...

Can someone summarize the bonuses so I don't have to go watch the video on my phone in the bathroom again?
