This milestone means we can expect the game to hit shelves without any last-minute delays. Fingers crossed! When it drops, Civilization 7 will be available on multiple platforms: PC, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and Nintendo Switch. Plus, there’s full cross-play on launch day for all players!
If you plan to pre-order one of those fancy special editions, you’re in for an extra treat. Early access starts five days before the standard edition launches!
For fellow PC gamers out there, pay attention to those system requirements! You’ll need different specs depending on how visually stunning you want your gameplay experience to be. The game supports older CPUs like the Intel Core i3-101000 or AMD Ryzen 3 1200 and graphics cards as old as Nvidia GTX 1050 and AMD RX 460. But if you’re aiming for maximum eye candy at high settings? You’ll need at least a 14th-gen Intel CPU or AMD Ryzen 9 5950X paired with an Nvidia RTX 4070 or AMD Radeon RX 7800XT.
