Sid Meier's Civilization VII Story Plot
Details about the story in Sid Meier’s Civilization VII—or Civ 7 to series veterans—are still under wraps. However, based on past entries, it’s unlikely the game will feature a traditional story mode with a set narrative. Instead, like most 4X games, Civ 7 will probably focus on letting players craft their own civilizations' histories as they advance through the eras. Players will likely be able to create a rich tapestry of origins, triumphs, and downfalls, rivaling the legacies of real-world civilizations.

Other anticipated returning features include Great People, as hinted at in the game’s teaser trailer, as well as Great Wonders, unique units, unique structures, natural wonders, and even fan-favorite game modes like Secret Societies.
