Sid Meier’s Civilization VII comes to Apple Arcade
Day three in what appears to be Apple services week chimed with the huge news that Sid Meier’s Civilization VII is coming to Apple Arcade. I’m pretty pleased about this as I’ve been a devoted player of the game since the beginning.
The OG strategy game
Apple tells us that on February 5, “the award-winning strategy franchise by legendary game designer Sid Meier comes to Apple Arcade” with the launch of Sid Meier’s Civilization VII Arcade Edition.
What’s fun about this is that you’ll be able to play the game across all your Apple devices, iPhone, iPad, and Mac. I do hope that this extends to shared gaming sessions across families, as that should help while away the winter months.
What Apple says
“In a pivotal new chapter of the iconic series, empires evolve with the dawn of each distinct age of human history, and players’ strategic decisions will shape the unique cultural lineage of their civilizations. Whether players choose to follow a path rooted in history or imagine new possibilities, they can create a legacy that echoes through the ages,” Apple says.
Also on Feb 5
Apple Arcade will also introduce three more games: Retrocade, enter a magical world of music and dreams in Felicity’s Door, and create order out of chromatic chaos in I Love Hue Too+.
Retrocade brings acclaimed games from old-school arcades together in one place -and even lets you wander a virtual arcade with Apple Vision Pro. Felicity’s Door is a brand-new rhythm game, while I Love Hue Too+ is a psychedelic puzzle game full of color, light, and shapes.
