Civ VII Weekly Reveal Guessing Thread

[AriochIV]

I'm not sure the website ever said a date, but the picture on Steam with what each edition give still says March 2025.

The description on the official site initially said March for Crossroads and "prior to the end of September" for Right to Rule, but these were later removed.

The Steam graphic still says March, but the Steam site hasn't really been updated since August except to add new trailers.

This specific picture has been added quite recently on the Steam page though, it was not here from the start.

And yet it still includes the typo about wonders in CotW, thus perpetuating confusion.

If memory serves me right, that image isn’t that recent, at least a couple of months old? And at this point they don’t seem to bother with updating graphical promo materials anymore.

We’re splitting hairs here but I think it’s a month or so old…I wish they would definitively clear the air on this so we know what to expect though.

They aren't going to give us the skinny on Crossroads until after launch, despite the mixed signals on what's already been revealed about it.

Actually that makes me think that the next livestream might involve some of the DLC (like Napoleon/personas…some of the Crossroads civs)

I wouldn’t expect to see gameplay of Crossroads/Right to Rule in a stream, I could see revealing what civs/leaders are in those.

While I don't see that as very likely, as those two dlcs packs are kinda like the usual with a season pass, you give an idea of the amount of content but not any details until it is close to release, if they reveal what civs and leaders are on those, it may help people decide to upgrade to the more expensive versions.

We are still missing
Himiko + Meiji
Friedrich + Prussia
Mughals
Jose Rizal
Napoleon

Today will be Jose Rizal, right?

Correct. Since we know we’re only getting a First Look, it’s almost certain that we’ll get the Leader not associated with one of the civs that are left to be revealed. Thus, José

Right. And since Napoleon will probably be held till last to encourage 2K account hookup, that leaves Rizal.

 

[TheSpaceCowboy]

But where is he? Are they not doing the First Look today?

It's posted right now!

 

[AriochIV]

They only have one more full week to do these. Early access begins Thursday the following week.

I don’t think they planned without the early access week. They want to have the last reveal shortly before release. We‘ll get the last civ and leader after Feb 6, I think.

I agree, but my point is that we won't need them after that.

 

[Eagle Pursuit]

I think it's a strong possibility that they do a guide and FL on Feb 4th.

The next few weeks may look like this:

Tuesday the 28th: Himiko and Meiji
Thursday the 30th: Livestream, Prussia, and Friedrich

Tuesday the 4th: Napoleon and Mughals
Thursday the 6th: Early Access

Tuesday the 11th: Full release

Babylon has been spotted I believe.

2 first looks and 2 civ guides next week! Obvious guess would be Meiji Himiko and Prussia Frederick and Mughals Napoleon the next week.

 

[lo24681]

suprised it looks like they may be saving Mughals for last, given that two leader leader reveals for next week strongly suggests that Japan and Prussia will be getting revealed.

It makes sense insofar as Mughals have no associated leader, and they'll want to reveal Napoleon last to remind people to connect their 2K accounts.

 

[TheMarshmallowBear]

Crossroads is described as delivering 6 individual DLCs before the end of March.

Oh.. I thought it was more like a New Frontier Pass where it's just a single DLC, not split in multiple parts.
