Sid Meier's Civilization V: Gods and Kings is the first expansion pack for Civilization V - the critically acclaimed 2010 PC Game of the Year. This robust expansion covers the entire scope of time from founding your first Pantheon of the Gods and spreading religion across the world, to deploying your spies in enemy cities in order to steal information and technology.
As you move through the ages, you’ll interact with types of city-states, engage in city-state quests and global competitions, and master exciting systems for land and naval combat. Civilization V: Gods and Kings will also include nine civilizations, nine wonders, three original scenarios, and dozens of units, buildings, and techs that will offer even more ways for players to expand their empire and dominate the world.
Requires the base game Sid Meier's Civilization V on Steam in order to play.
