Civilization 7 is Coming to VR for the First Time Ever

In a matter of a few days, players across the globe will finally be able to lay their hands on the much-anticipated debut of Civilization 7 (styled as Civilization VII). It’s been nearly ten years since the last significant installment in the Civ series, and it’s no wonder that fans are eagerly looking forward to the opportunity to lead empires towards growth once more.

Just announced is a fresh take on the Civilization series – a Virtual Reality edition of Civilization 7, which is being jointly created by PlaySide Studios, 2K, and Firaxis. This innovative experience is set to launch on Meta Quest 3 and 3S in the spring season.

Truly Immersive

Firaxis, PlaySide, and 2K have joined forces to reveal a fresh trailer for Civilization VII, unveiling an unexpected Virtual Reality edition of the game.

In recent times, the realm of Virtual Reality (VR) has been thriving and advancing. The technology is becoming increasingly refined, prices are gradually decreasing, and the variety of games and applications on top-tier headsets continues to grow exponentially. Although it may still be a nascent field for some, an increasing number of developers are pouring resources into this technology, which is exciting news for those who enjoy the immersive experience it offers.

For the first time ever, a Civilization game is making its debut on virtual reality platforms, and it’s set to launch exclusively on Meta Quest 3 and 3S. It’s not surprising in today’s world that such a release is happening, as these headsets have become market leaders. As an owner of the Quest 3, I can attest that they are usually the best-in-class devices.

The trailer clearly demonstrates the functioning of this game, featuring a one-of-a-kind interface and settings tailored specifically for VR users, immersing them in the intricate experience that Civilization 7 intends to deliver. Keep in mind that due to the lengthy nature of an average Civ 7 game, it could be demanding and you may opt for an additional battery for your headset, but these are decisions left up to you.
