What are some of the new design ideas you’ve been thankful the team has gotten the chance to explore through Civ VI’s expansion content?Ĭivilization VI – New Frontier Pass, which included numerous optional game modes, was a great way to test out new gameplay concepts. Playing as Lincoln, you have to think through where to farm and where to industrialise in a whole new way. It is a subtle detail, but actually is an amazing way to simulate some of the pressures that led the United States into the American Civil War. The fact that Abraham Lincoln’s cities lose Loyalty for each Plantation present. What’s one small detail about the new leaders that you personally love, but we might not notice? Some of the Leaders we will be releasing later in the pass also change up play dramatically (Ludwig II of Germany is one), but we aren’t giving out exact details on them quite yet. Given that Civ’s strength with Great Works, she can become very strong with an emphasis on obtaining religious relics. Now you can play as Kongo and try to win a religious victory. She doesn’t have the same restriction on not founding a religion that Kongo’s previous leader (Mvemba a Nzinga) did. It would have been a shame if she had missed out!Ĭan you talk about how some of the upcoming leaders might dramatically alter the way we might typically play Civilization 6?Ī great example of this is Queen Mbande Nzinga of Kongo. She’s one of the handful of leaders that has been in every primary Civilization title dating back to the original Civilization game. Queen Elizabeth of England is now back in our roster. Were there any leaders that kept missing the cut that have now finally made it with the new Leader Pass? It’s great to be able to fully capitalise on this feature. However, we were so busy diversifying our cultures/civilisations that we rarely have been able to use it until Civilization VI: Leader Pass. What’s it like to suddenly have the license to expand your ideas dramatically? Is it freeing? Or does it introduce a new kind of challenge?Įd Beach, Lead Designer on Civilization 6 : We always thought it was a great feature (newly added for Civilization VI, but not possible in Civilization V) to have multiple leaders for a Civilization so you could explore different play styles. GamesHub: I imagine that a lot of careful consideration went into picking the initial roster of leaders when the base edition of Civilization 6 was being designed. GamesHub posed some questions to Beach via email, following the announcement of the new Leader Pass, concerning his thoughts about the inherent value the new content will bring to Civilization 6, and about the overall longevity of Civilization 6.
