Marvel’s Midnight Suns is the ultimate crossover event combining the rich story, character relationships, customization and progression of an RPG with the tactical strategy and combat mechanics of a revolutionary new card-based tactics game.
We're excited to announce that on November 21 you can add Julius Caesar to the game's roster!* To do so, simply link your 2K Account to the Steam account that you use to play. You can find instructions on how to create and link a 2K Account below.
Once you've linked your 2K Account, you'll need to restart Civilization VI and enable Julius Caesar. To do so, click Additional Content on the game's main menu followed by Mods, then scroll down through your list of additional content, click on "DLC: Julius Caesar," and click on the "Enable" button.
Where Civilization VI's default Roman leader Trajan has a penchant for civilizations with lots of territory and starts with a free building in all founded cities, Caesar is a conqueror. His dislike of Barbarians in-game is a nod to the successful campaign he waged against the tribes of Gaul during his time as a general circa 57 BC.
New Ability: Veni, vidi, vici
Receive 200 Gold whenever you conquer a city for the first time or 100 Gold when you clear a Barbarian Outpost. These Gold amounts both increase to 500 after you research Steel.
How will you choose to lead as Julius Caesar? Perhaps you want to recreate history by allying with Cleopatra? Maybe you relish the prospect of going toe-to-toe with a leader like the German king Frederick Barbarossa, who became Rome's Holy Emperor a millennium and change after Caesar ruled there? Regardless of how you lead, we hope you enjoy playing as and against one of history's greatest military commanders.

February is Black History Month in the United States and Canada, a celebration of contributions from the African diaspora to culture, society, and history. In recognition of the month, our team is paying tribute to Civ’s Black leaders and their lasting marks on the world.
This incredible artwork from Emmy award-winning artist Teddy Wright IV captures each of our five leaders in all their greatness:
Mvemba a Nzinga: The Apostle of Kongo brought faith, wisdom, and sweeping prosperity to his growing kingdom.
Menelik II: The defender of Ethiopia modernized his empire, forging stability and identity across the African highlands.
Amanitore: The last great builder of Nubia, Queen Amanitore fortified the Land of the Bow through her extensive restoration projects.
Mansa Musa: The great king is among the richest people to ever live. Mansa Musa used his incredible wealth to transform the Mali Empire into a center for education, artistry, and commerce.
Shaka: The mighty Zulu king transformed his military into a fierce group of warriors, and his kingdom into a formidable empire.
Through their unique and exceptional abilities, each of these great leaders forever etched their names into history. Interested in learning more about them and their civilizations? You can try out each leader and lead them to victory in the Civ VI Anthology today.
As 2021 steadily draws to a close, all of us working on Civilization are taking a moment to celebrate and reflect on an incredible year. Turns out some leaders are doing the same!
On behalf of the entire team, we want to thank you for spending another year with Civ. From wrapping up the New Frontier Pass to reaching the 30th Anniversary of the series, we’ve had a blast going on some pretty awesome adventures with our community. Whether you’re sharing a meal, exchanging gifts, or sneaking in one more turn this holiday season, we hope you have the opportunity to kick back and spend some quality time with your loved ones.
