Civilization VII Update 1.1.1 Introduces Key Gameplay Enhancements, Set for March 25 Release

Firaxis Games will release a significant update for Civilization 7 on March 26, 2025, addressing various community concerns and enhancing gameplay. Key features include a new 'quick move' functionality for faster unit movements, the ability to rename settlements and commanders, and improvements to the user interface, which has faced criticism since the game's launch. Despite favorable reviews, Civilization 7's reception has been mixed, with player counts lagging behind its predecessors, Civilization 6 and 5. The update also aims to slow down game progression by increasing the costs of technologies and civics, allowing players more time to complete objectives within each Age. This patch reflects Firaxis's commitment to improving the game's structure and quality, as highlighted by Creative Director Ed Beach. Future updates are expected to further address ongoing gameplay and user experience issues.
