Civilization 6 review

Civilization is one of the great constants of PC gaming. Just as at any given moment there'll always be people modding the latest Elder Scrolls, flashbanging terrorists in Counter-Strike, and barking orders at the screen during Football Manager matches, so too will there be people clicking an entire populace from Stonehenge to space, helping shape an alternate world history in which the Aztecs are a nuclear power or where Big Ben stands next to the Pyramids in the Viking capital.

The release of a new Civ game is a monumental event in the PC gaming calendar (a hypothetical six-year calendar, that is), because there's an inbuilt understanding among gamers that we're in all probability going to be playing it for five to six years until the next entry. At the time of writing, Civilization V sits in fifth place of Steam's current 'most played' list, dutifully keeping the seat warm for its successor.

The good news is, Civilization VI is a wonderful game that'll keep us one-more-turning for as long as it damn well pleases.
