Civilization VII's Crossroads of the World DLC: Predictions and Expectations
Even before Civ VII's official launch, Firaxis announced the Crossroads of the World DLC, featuring new leaders, civilizations, and wonders. This DLC is included with the Deluxe and Founders' Editions. Let's delve into the details and explore some educated predictions.
Two DLC releases are planned for early and late March 2025. Early March will introduce Ada Lovelace (Great Britain), Carthage, and four new natural wonders. Simón Bolívar (leading Nepal and Bulgaria) will arrive later in the month.
While specifics are scarce, we can speculate based on historical context:
Ada Lovelace (Great Britain): Given her pioneering work in computer programming, she'll likely be a science-focused leader, possibly with bonuses related to Codex and Specialist mechanics. This aligns with a potential science victory path.
Simón Bolívar (Nepal & Bulgaria): His historical role as a military strategist suggests a militaristic/expansionist playstyle, potentially leveraging the new Commanders mechanic. Unlike Trung Trac's approach, Bolívar might focus on logistical advantages for his commanders.
Carthage: Its historical wealth and trading prominence suggest a focus on trade, potentially emphasizing Trade Route capacity and Culture bonuses from international trade, possibly with a Colossus wonder synergy.
Great Britain: A Civ series staple, Great Britain might focus on naval production and trade, reflecting its island nation status. Bonuses tied to Oxford University could reinforce its scientific and industrial strengths.
Nepal: Its location in the Himalayas suggests bonuses related to mountainous terrain and potentially military and cultural advantages.
Bulgaria: Its position at the crossroads of East and West might emphasize military and economic strengths, possibly with cavalry-focused bonuses or advantages in Traditions and Social Policies.
Natural Wonders: The DLC will include four new natural wonders, but unlike previous iterations, they will likely offer passive tile yield bonuses rather than unique gameplay effects.
These are predictions, and the actual DLC may differ. The information used for these predictions is based on historical records and real-world knowledge.
