I have been playing the Civilization games from Sid Meier for years. I particularly liked Civilization V that launched most recently in the series, and still play that game frequently. If you are a fan of the franchise, a new game is coming in late 2014 that you can look forward to. The game is called Civilization: Beyond Earth.
Unlike the other games in the franchise that have had us evolving our civilizations over time up until the space-faring age when the game ends, Beyond Earth starts there. Players will get to colonize other worlds with their civilizations.
Players will get to lead factions to alien worlds where they can make colonies. The planets will change based on the player actions. Beyond Earth will also feature nonlinear technology progression, deep customization, and more. There is always the chance that the game will be delayed, but I hope not I am looking forward to playing this game when it hits this holiday season. You can pre-order Civilization: Beyond Earth now for $49.99(USD).
The folks over at 2K and Firaxis Games have announced that Sid Meier’s Civilization: Beyond Earth is being developed by the latter for Windows-based machines. Sid Meier’s Civilization: Beyond Earth happens to be a brand new science fiction-themed entry in the Civilization franchise, where it will also eventually make its way to the Mac and Linux platforms via Aspyr Media. Touted for a release later this fall, Sid Meier’s Civilization: Beyond Earth will see players embark on an expedition from Earth all the way to a whole new frontier, where they will need to explore and colonize an alien planet, and of course, create a new civilization along the way.
Want to pick up a Sid Meier game bundle so that you can spend hours at home entertaining yourself on the computer instead of massaging the economy by eating, drinking and being merry outside of the four walls of your “castle”? You can now do so by saving even more money while giving yourself the warm, fuzzy feeling thanks to Humble’s most recent name-your-own-price bundle.
