It seems that one recent leak regarding free games on Epic Store during the Epic Mega Sale<\/a> was true.<\/p>\n

That leak suggested<\/a> that the next free game will be Civilization VI, and this is now confirmed by Epic Games.<\/p>\n

Civilization VI<\/a> will be free on Epic Store from today until next Thursday, so make sure to add it to your Epic Games account.<\/p>\n

This is another AAA title in a row coming from Take-Two Interactive to be free on Epic Store after they previously gave away GTA V<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Civilization VI was released in October 2016 for PC and later ported to Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.<\/p>\n

During the reveal period, it was criticized for its “cartoonish” look but that was quickly dismissed in favour of generally positive reception of its gameplay mechanics and a myriad of features it offers. <\/p>\n

Developer Firaxis Games explained that one of the key things they were focused on when they were designing the game was to avoid having the player follow a pre-set path of improvements towards their civilisation which they had observed from earlier games.<\/p>\n

Since the release, numerous new civilisations and scenarios were added in the form of a DLC. Besides small DLCs, two major expansions were also added. The first one is Civilization VI: Rise and Fall, released in February 2018, and the second one is Civilization VI: Gathering Storm, released in February 2019.<\/p>\n

Recently, they introduced a season pass, called The New Frontier Pass<\/a>, which includes six DLC packs on a bimonthly basis from May 2020 to March 2021. The first one is already out, and it includes two new civilisations: Gran Colombia and Maya.<\/p>\n
