The Crossroads of the World Collection is due to launch sometime in March 2025 but is subject to change. The fingerprint says that “each DLC will be delivered automatically in-game in release,” which is handy. Some games like Tekken 8 don’t have that functionality.
Napoleon Can be Unlocked
Another leader you can unlock inCivilization VIIis Napoleon Bonaparte, who has the Emperor Persona. All you need to do is connect the game to a 2K account to unlock him.
He has a unique ability called Empereur des Francais, which “reduces the Trade Route capacity for a target civilization and causes massive Grievances,” according to theSteampage. You’re also incentivized to be unfriendly or hostile with other leaders as he gets a bonus Gold per age for each.
One of the biggest changes in Civilization VII is that leaders aren’t attached to specific civilizations this time around. You can have Napoleon rule over Egypt if you want to. “Gameplay bonuses like buffs or unique units are split between leaders and civilizations, allowing for a wider range of customizable societies,” explains our sister siteScreenRant’s preview.
Civilization VII launches for the PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on February 11. 2K is also expected to reveal details aboutWWE 2K25later this month andPGA Tour 2K25is on the way too.
