Preordering from place where refund is possible after initial launch experiences start to arrive makes it possible to get preorder bonuses, but refund if game is horrible/buggy/etc.
Imo games are not quite physical anymore,even if got in disc. Update downloads etc are still required.
Well, no. But Firaxis is based in Maryland, so probably East Coast Time?
Firaxis say the game's regular launch is the 11th - but it's the 12th for me on Steam, and I'm 16h ahead of their offices at the moment. So assuming it'll be the same time for early access five days earlier, I'd expect no earlier than 8am US EST.
I would speculate from Civ 6 that at worst you need to turn off founders dlcs from dlc-menu when starting game on PS5 to continue on platforms that do not have founders cosmetics dlcs.Hi all, my first post here.
Tried searching but struggling to find an answer. From what I can gather the following more minor content in the Founders Content Pack is limited to the Founders edition or the founders upgrade at this time which can't be purchased past the 28 Feb.
I assume I’ve read that right?
If so, as someone with a few consoles and a laptop, I’m pretty interested in the Cross Save capability where one can start a game on one system and move to another. I appreciate that the base game and any purchasable DLC needs to be purchased on any system one wants to play on, but does that apply to the sort of content in the founders pack that I believe won’t be available for sale past the 28th February? If I didn’t have this content on all systems and looked to pick up a save on another system, without it, would cross save just not work or does the game allow things like cosmetics to carry over. That’s my experience with Diablo 4 where DLC packs need to be repurchased but unlocked items/cosmetics don’t, but that’s its own game and set of criteria.
I'm thinking I’ll buy the Founders PS5 copy at launch but then possibly grab PC and/or Switch (after maybe seeing if they do any optimisations for Switch 2) at a later date, probably during a sale. Just weary as to whether the founders content if unavailable for my later copies will impact cross save experience.
Thanks
This is probably worth getting @FXS_Sar to weigh in on.Hi all, my first post here.

Deluxe will still be available; only the Founders is time-limited.
I’ve purchased games with “advanced access” preorder benefits from legitimate authorized third party sellers like Green Man Gaming before.
Civilization VII official FAQ has bad news for you. It indicates that upgrades are not possible during early access: https://civilization.2k.com/civ-vii/faq/Has anyone found a way to upgrade a standard edition to deluxe? I was gifted a copy of standard but want to play now
