Sid Meier's Civilization® V is the fifth offering in the multi-award
winning Civilization strategy game series featuring the famous "just one
more turn" addictive gameplay that has made it one of the greatest game
series of all time.
In Civilization V, players strive to become Ruler of the World
by establishing and leading a civilization from the dawn of man into the
space age, waging war, conducting diplomacy, discovering new
technologies, going head-to-head with some of history’s greatest
leaders, and building the most powerful empire the world has ever known.
- Believable World: More than just a strategy
game -- the expanded visuals and immersive audio invite would-be kings
to take up the reigns of power and forge a mighty empire. Civilization V
offers a limitless variety of vast, realistic and diverse landscapes
for players to explore, battle over and claim as their own.
- Inviting Presentation: An intuitive
interface eases both new players and Civ veterans into the game. Guided
by a set of trusted advisors who will explain game functionality and
provide counsel for significant decisions, even first-time players will
be confident in the choices they make.
- Huge Battles: Combat is more exciting
and engaging than ever before. Wars between empires feel massive with
armies spreading across the landscape. The addition of ranged
bombardment allows players to fire weapons from behind the front lines,
challenging players to develop clever new strategies to guarantee
victory on the battlefield.
- In-Game Community Hub: Compete with Civ
players from all over the globe via the Internet or compete locally in
LAN matches, offering endless ways to rule the world. The game itself
now serves as the hub of community activity, featuring the ability to
share scenarios, compare scores, brag about achievements and visit one
of the thriving Civ fansites without leaving the game. It's now easier
than ever for players to become involved in the global Civ Community.

tools, players will have unlimited options for modifying Civilization V
any way they like.
