Civilization 7 will receive a major patch that will fix some of the biggest issues in the game

A new update for Civilization 7 will be released tomorrow, incorporating several features anticipated by the community. Among the most notable changes is the ability to perform ‘quick movement’ for armies and the option to rename settlements and commanders. This update also promises improvements to the user interface, an aspect that has received strong criticism since the game’s launch.

Civilization 7 is not a game that fans are enjoying

Since its debut on February 10, Civilization 7 has received mixed reviews. While the reviews have been favorable, they have not reached the level of enthusiasm that the developers at Firaxis and 2K Games expected. Currently, the user rating on Steam remains ‘mixed’, and the concurrent player counts are below those achieved by Civilization 6 and even Civilization 5, which was released 15 years ago.

User interface issues have been identified as one of the most critical aspects of the game. While fixes have been implemented through small quick updates, substantial improvements are still needed to make the gaming experience smoother. The latest update will also adjust game progression, increasing the costs of technologies and civics by 25%, which will further slow down the pace of advancement in the game. This includes reducing the progress gained from eliminating other players.

Creative director Ed Beach has stated that the intention is to strengthen the game’s structure, aiming for Civilization 7 to approach the quality of its predecessors over time. Although tomorrow’s update does not promise a radical change, it is expected to be a positive step towards improving the game. In this regard, it is rumored that future updates could more effectively address the persistent issues in gameplay and user experience.
