Oof, February 26th!

THey look good. Ramses is younger than I expected. Sundiata looks cool. And Cleo has a cool look too. I like her hair.

Weird. That's a Sunday. The pic says 16th, though, so 26th is probably a typo

Edit:
And here's the corrected Tweet

Yeah, that's what I meant by "Oof". Definitely, has to be a typo - a 2 instead of a 1.

And here's the corrected Tweet

Yep, already updated the OP.

I like this Cleo a lot better. Instead of leaning into the Isis schtick with a big Elizabeth Taylor influence, she has a nice Hellenistic-Egyptian fusion thing going on.

Did Ramesses II really had blue eyes? His face reminds me of a more modern Egyptian leader (Hosni Mubarak)....And he's fairer than Cleopatra! I know Ramesses II apparently had red hair though. I was hoping they modeled his face more on the various reconstructions of his mummy's face.
That's all I will say about his game appearance. I'm sure some people out there will take issue with his Civ 6 depiction.

I am really looking forward to playing as Ramses and the new Cleo. I hope their leader abilities are good.

Look fine so far, will need to see them in motion.

Cleopatra's hair got an upgrade.

Aaaaaand... that's it. We now do absolutely nothing as we wait for them to reveal the abilities

...Why does Cleopatra look like Xena Warrior Princess? Something looks off about Ramesses.

Maybe I'm used to seeing desiccated mummy Ramses, but he looks really robust. That's my only complaint.

Looks like Gilgabro without the beard.

Keita model textures looks great, Cleo drip is Nice too, they really should give Kublai a visual update, it became more uglier each time a new leader is released.

There's no way to divine eye color from a mummified body over 3000 years old. However, Egyptian art frequently depicts Egyptians with blue and green eyes.

He also doesn't look fairer than Cleopatra to me - just a different, more olive skin tone.

Me seeing the the thread/Me seeing the Cleopatra design

What a horrid look tbh. And why is Rameses white and blonde? He looks like Imhotep from The Mummy

Me too. Those 2 are my wanted hyped leaders for the whole pass.

Ramses II giving me this kind of vibe:

I'm okay with showing him buff. He was probably fat IRL, but his monuments continued to show him as an athletic 20-something into his nineties. What I'm more confused about is why he the man who probably has more monuments than anyone else in history doesn't look like those monuments.

There's no way to divine eye color from a mummified body over 3000 years old.

There is, actually. From running his genome, Ramesses was a redhead; having light eyes is not terribly improbable. See also blue-eyed Coptic actor Rami Malek.

Can't say I'm a fan of Cleopatra's hair but hair in generally seems to be a really weak point in the character designs for the game so. . . eh, whatever. Everything else looks great though.
