Firaxis announces Civilization V

I must say, I’m pretty psyched about this one. I’ve followed this series since the beginning before I even knew how I was supposed to play it properly. I was addicted to non-stop play with Civ 4 for months on end, now Sid is about to lure me back in with the sequel!

Civilization games follow the same concept and ultimate goal of building a civilization and conquering the world through various methods, be it through diplomacy, war or cultural influence.

Civilization V will expand on the previous games with a new combat system, deeper diplomacy and improved visuals. The game is due for release sometime this Autumn.
