Civilization VII Developers Prioritize Quality-of-Life Updates Over Events
Firaxis Games outlines significant gameplay and UI improvements for March updates, addressing player concerns and introducing new features.
- Firaxis Games has postponed Civilization VII's first in-game event, 'Natural Wonder Battle,' to focus on quality-of-life improvements.
- The March 4th Update 1.1.0 will introduce cross-play, UI enhancements, AI improvements, and new content, including the Bermuda Triangle natural wonder and part of the Crossroads of the World DLC pack.
- Update 1.1.1, scheduled for March 25th, will further refine the UI, reduce aggressive AI settling, reintroduce features like quick move, and add new customization options for commanders and cities.
- Upcoming updates will also address long-term player requests, such as the ability to continue playing beyond the Modern Age, expanded modding tools, and support for new map sizes.
- Player feedback has driven these changes as Firaxis aims to improve Civilization VII's mixed reception and rebuild its standing in the strategy game genre.
