Sid Meier’s Civilization V, developed by Firaxis Games and published by 2K
Games, is the fifth installment in the popular turn-based strategy game series.
Launched in September 21, 2010 in North America, Civilization V captivated
players with its revamped gameplay mechanics, hexagonal tile system, and
one-unit-per-tile rule.

Throughout its lifetime, the game has been enriched with several expansion packs
and downloadable content (DLC) that introduced new civilizations, leaders, and
gameplay features.

The base game introduced several innovations to the series, such as:

 1. Hexagonal Grid: The square grid system was replaced with a hexagonal grid,
    allowing for more strategic and realistic gameplay.
 2. One-Unit-Per-Tile: Military units can no longer stack, requiring players to
    devise new tactics for positioning and warfare.
 3. City-States: Non-playable city-states were introduced, providing
    opportunities for diplomacy, trade, and conquest.
 4. Social Policies: The new social policy system allowed players to customize
    their civilizations by adopting various policies, offering unique bonuses
    and shaping their playstyle.


EXPANSION 1: GODS & KINGS (JUNE 2012)

The first expansion pack (after several DLCs), named “Gods & Kings”, with 9 new
civilizations as well as features like religion and espionage, was released on
June 19, 2012 or June 22, 2012 in Northern America and the rest of the world
(respectively).

It focused on religion and espionage, adding depth to the early and middle
stages of the game. Key features include:

 1. Religion: Players can establish their own religion and spread it throughout
    the world, gaining benefits and influence over other civilizations.
 2. Espionage: The espionage system allows players to conduct various spy
    activities, such as stealing technology and influencing city-states.
 3. New Civilizations and Leaders: Gods & Kings introduces nine new
    civilizations and leaders, including Carthage’s Dido and the Netherlands’
    William.
 4. Enhanced Combat: The expansion revamps the naval combat system and adds new
    units, such as the Great Admiral and the Privateer.


EXPANSION 2: BRAVE NEW WORLD (JULY 2013)

The second expansion pack, “Brave New World” was released on July 9 2013 in the
USA, and on July 12th, 2013 in the rest of the world, featuring more
civilizations and new concepts like ideologies.  It focuses on culture,
diplomacy, and international trade, significantly enhancing the late-game
experience. Main features are:

 1. World Congress: The diplomatic landscape is transformed with the World
    Congress, allowing players to vote on global issues, enact resolutions, and
    compete for a diplomatic victory.
 2. Trade Routes: International and domestic trade routes offer economic and
    diplomatic benefits, encouraging players to establish connections with other
    civilizations and city-states.
 3. Cultural Victory: The revamped culture victory relies on accumulating
    tourism by creating great works of art, literature, and music, and
    discovering archeological sites.
 4. New Civilizations and Leaders: Brave New World adds nine new civilizations
    and leaders, such as Brazil’s Pedro II and Morocco’s Ahmad al-Mansur.


DLCS: ADDITIONAL CONTENT

Civilization V offers a variety of DLC packs that include new civilizations,
scenarios, and map packs. Some notable DLCs are:

 1. Spain and Inca Civilization and Scenario Pack: Introduces the Spanish
    civilization led by Isabella and the Inca civilization led by Pachacuti, as
    well as the Conquest of the New World scenario.
 2. Polynesia Civilization and Scenario Pack: Adds the Polynesian civilization
    led by Kamehameha and the Paradise Found scenario.
 3. Korea Civilization and Scenario Pack: Features the Korean civilization led
    by Sejong and the Samurai Invasion of Korea scenario.
