Civilization 6 is considered one of the most successful strategy games ever. If you want the game with the most important DLCs, you normally have to put almost 170 euros on the table. On Steam, players can currently get the Platinum Edition with a 91 percent discount.

Civilization 6 is one of the most popular strategy games of all time. No wonder that publisher 2K Games has not released a sequel in 8 years. Instead, players have been able to enjoy a whole host of DLCs - 15 in total. But the more DLCs are released for Civilization 6, the deeper gamers have to dig into their pockets to get their hands on the game. If this has always been too expensive for you, you now have the perfect opportunity on Steam. The Platinum Edition, which includes the main game and 8 DLCs, is currently being sold on Steam with a 91 percent discount for around 15 euros. Normally the price is around 168 euros. It is not known how long the offer will last.

From antiquity to the information age

In Civilization 6, players guide their civilization through different eras of human history - from antiquity to the modern age. Gamers choose from various historical leaders, such as Alexander the Great, Cleopatra or Barbarossa - each with unique bonuses, units and buildings. By building cities, researching technologies, promoting culture, founding religions and waging wars or diplomatic relations, players can create a thriving civilization. Unique to Civ 6 are city districts, which must be strategically placed on the map and provide specific advantages. Players must make smart decisions regarding politics, military strategy, science development and cultural growth to achieve one of several victory conditions and write the history of their civilization.
