Can Take-Two Interactive live up to its hype and redefine the genre, or will it be another cautionary tale in the ever-evolving gaming landscape?
Yesterday Firaxis Games unveiled Civilization VII, a game that critics are hailing as a groundbreaking evolution in the strategy genre. Our specialised trackers indicate that Civilization VII has quickly become one of the highest-rated games of 2025, boasting an impressive initial global average score of 80 from 127 reviews so far.
23% of reviews are above 90 with 3% awarding it a perfect 100. Civilisation VII seems poised to take on the likes of 11 Bit Studio’s ‘Frostpunk 2’ and League of Geeks’ ‘Solium Infernum’ to claim the top spot in the strategy game category. Looking at the broader social impact, our data shows just under 7500 video were posts in the 28 days building to the launch of Civilization VII. We are only a day from launch and have already seen over 1500 content posts about the game. We will keep you updated on the progress of Civilization VII especially considering the launch window overlaps with fan favourite Kingdom Come Deliverance II.
