2023 had just started when we first heard about it Firaxis was already in the development stage of Civilization 7. The first reaction was of course joy, because we are talking about a historical saga that brought us great deliveries (albeit also some rather forgettable ones), which in turn translated into many, in some cases, many hours stolen from sleep. , always accompanied by the classic phrase “a few more innings and I’ll be done.”

So, as I say, the first announcement marked the start signal waitingdateless at the time, but which warned us that at some point the standard length of days would once again be too short for our needs, something we were reminded of last June when it leaked that it would be unveiled at Summer Game Fest in a few hours later. And as you may remember, it eventually did, although the announcement didn’t come with a release date.

So since then we’ve been waiting for more information, hoping but with little hope that it would be official, and therefore paying attention to rumors and leaks that might surface. However, in general, it seems to be Firaxis has done a good job of keeping this information private.because until now we had no information about it, only speculations that were not supported by concrete data (which is, of course, the only thing that can be done in the absence of information).

However, it seems that the halo of protection that surrounded the information we wanted to know has finally been broken, and as we read in ReadWrite, The Civilization 7 release date has already been leaked, which would be March 7, 2025. The same information also tells us that the game will arrive in two editions (digital, of course): standard and deluxe. What we don’t know at this point, of course, is what will differentiate one from the other, both from their point of view assets as well as the price, and if the saga also joins the trend of offering early access to those who purchase the deluxe version.

We learned this a few days ago through Take-Two’s results presentation His starting window was between January and March next yearwhich was already a sign that indicated a fairly advanced state of development. But now, with this new information (if confirmed, of course), we can assume that development has already ended and that the state of Civilization 7 should be quite satisfactory for the studio at this point.
