The eagerly awaited first DLC for *Civilization VII*, titled "Crossroads of the World," is set to launch in two exciting phases in March. In the initial stage, players will have the opportunity to lead both Great Britain and Carthage, embarking on historical campaigns guided by Ada Lovelace, the renowned computer pioneer who joins the game as a new leader. Just three weeks later, the second phase will introduce Simon Bolivar as another leader, alongside the civilizations of Bulgaria and Nepal, offering players even more strategic options and historical narratives to explore.
Following closely, the upcoming DLC "Right to Rule" is slated for release sometime between April and September 2025. This expansion will bring two additional leaders and four new civilizations into the fold, along with awe-inspiring natural wonders, further enriching the *Civilization VII* experience.
Firaxis is committed to enhancing *Civilization VII* with new challenges and events. In March, players can look forward to fresh in-game events and the introduction of natural wonders such as the Bermuda Triangle and Mount Everest, promising to add more depth and variety to the gameplay.
