Sid Meier’s Civilization VII is gearing up for a big release on PC and console on February 11th. But that’s not all: Firaxis and publisher 2K Games have just revealed that a special edition of the game is also set to launch for the Quest this Spring.
This Quest version isn’t just a straightforward port. It’s described as a unique adaptation designed specifically for Meta Quest 3 and 3S. In this version, you’ll step into the game itself, building your empire from a first-person viewpoint and enjoying the spectacle of the map spread out below you in both virtual and mixed reality modes.
The VR spin on Sid Meier’s Civilization VII is brought to you by the collaborative effort of PlaySide Studios and publisher 2K. It promises to deliver both solo play and online multiplayer, where you can challenge up to three other players using Quest 3 and 3S headsets.
What’s particularly exciting about this version is how it brings the series’ iconic world leaders to life. They come right up to you, reacting dynamically to your diplomatic decisions—whether you’re forging pacts or declaring wars.
While a precise release date hasn’t been nailed down just yet, 2K has mentioned a Spring 2025 window during their recent reveal at the Civ World Summit. If you’re eager to dive into this immersive experience, you can already add Sid Meier’s Civilization VII – VR to your wishlist on the Horizon Store for Quest 3 and Quest 3S.
