As a follow up to this article, the makers of the new Civilization mobile game have released more info on the game!2K Reveals Civilization Mobile Game, Moves to Calm Concern It May Impact Civilization 7 - IGN
2K has announced Civilization: Eras & Allies, a new standalone free-to-play mobile 4X social strategy game, and insisted it won't affect development of Civilization 7.www.ign.com
I first need to read the article to make a summary, but here, have the thread already.
EDIT: The game is called "Civilization: Eras & Allies", and apparently a re-branding of an already existing game called "Conquests and Alliances", a 4X empire builder.
So this is not something actually really new.
From the IGN artcile:
"As we announced earlier this year, Firaxis Games is in active development on the next iteration of the legendary Civilization franchise. We are working with an external partner specializing in mobile social strategy games to develop Civilization: Eras & Allies."
It should also be pointed out that IGN calls it Civ7, and that whoever from Firaxis spoke calls it again the "next iteration".
EDIT: I pulled up a random video from the game on Youtube:
For the record, this was only on the Chinese site bilibili, civilization.com did not release any content yet.
The partner is confirmed to be Tencent Games, and the name is 世界启元. Literally translates to "World Starting Era" as opposed to Eras&Allies
Their official video account is at https://space.bilibili.com/3546599921814396 and currently has three videos (mostly CG)
A handful of images are also posted at https://www.biligame.com/detail/?id=111292, I'll also provide them below. Definitely from Civ6 assets.
(preorder is technically open at the site above but only has android. Also likely limited to Chinese accounts?)
Oh and Sid himself made an appearance.
