Experience Epic Conquests in Quest VR: Civilization VII Lands This Spring

Civilization VR is Coming: Sid Meier’s Civilization VII – VR Launching on Meta Quest in Spring 2025

Get ready to reign supreme in a new way. 2K and Firaxis Games have announced that the iconic Civilization franchise is getting a VR treatment, launching on Meta Quest headsets in spring 2025. Exciting news for fans of the beloved franchise, but what does this "virtual and mixed reality" game have in store for us?

A New Kind of Civilization Experience

According to a Meta blog post, Sid Meier’s Civilization VII – VR brings the true Civ experience to the Quest by projecting the game into your physical space using the headset’s passthrough cameras or showing it in a virtual museum environment. You can switch between these modes at any time, making it perfect for players who want to experience the game in a unique way.

A Board Game-Like Construction

The game’s "board game-like construction" is a key aspect of the experience. In this mode, you’ll see your opponents around the table, represented by the digital bodies of their chosen leaders.

**What to Expect**

The game’s developers have made a point to speed up the pace by default, recognizing that long VR sessions can be tiring. However, you can adjust the speed to your liking. This tweak is a great example of how the developers have considered player comfort and preferences.

**The Verdict**

We can’t wait to see how closely **Sid Meier’s Civilization VII – VR** hews to the PC and console versions of the game when it’s released in the spring. Until then, we’ll be pondering that **Futurama** episode where Bender becomes a god.
