The Civilization VI Leader Pass continues - Meet the Rulers of England!

Sid Meier’s Civilization VI Leader Pass* concludes with the Rulers of England pack. Each Leader Pass release contains brand new leaders decked out with inventive abilities, each designed to tease out clever new playstyles and challenge veteran CIV players in surprising ways. You’ll also see a few familiar leaders, reinvented to represent them at a different stage on their journey through history. Forget the old ways and put your safe strategies to bed—the Civilization VI Leader Pass will forever change the way you rule.

The Rulers of England includes:
  • Elizabeth I
  • Harald Hardrada (Varangian)
  • Victoria (Age of Steam)


Elizabeth I constructed the foundations for the British Empire to come, but in her day, this was a desperate patchwork of privateers and spies amidst a world order dominated by other hostile powers. Trading’s a tough gig.

Unique Leader Ability: Drake's Legacy
  • England's Trade Route Capacity is increased by 2 after acquiring your first Great Admiral. Trade Route to any city-state provide +3 Gold for every specialty district in the origin city. +100% Yields from Plundering Trade Routes.


Harald Hardrada (Varangian) takes on a new hue, reimagining the famed Norwegian at a different stage in his journey during a stint as a commander of the Byzantine Vangarian Guard.

Unique Leader Ability: Varangian Guard
  • Base Game: 75% Discount on Levying units and all units pay 2 less maintenance.
  • Rise and Fall + Gathering Storm: 75% Discount on Levying units and levied units receive Culture, Faith and Science From Kills equal to 50% of the opponent’s Combat Strength.


Victoria (Age of Steam) returns to CIV VI with a new focus. While her long reign marked great militaristic progress, which defined Victoria’s original CIV VI playstyle, she also ushered in great industrial change. Double down on industrial growth, get those cities hot and steamy.

Unique Leader Ability: Age of Steam
  • +10% Production in Cities for every Industrial Zone building in that city. +2 Production to all Strategic Resources.
