Several DLC packs are slated for release, featuring new Leaders, Civilizations, and Natural Wonders. The “Crossroads of the World Collection,” a two-part release, will be the first paid DLC. Part one, launching in early March, includes Leader Ada Lovelace, four Natural Wonders, and the Carthage and Great Britain civilizations. Part two, arriving in late March, adds Leader Simon Bolivar and the Bulgaria and Nepal civilizations. Free content updates, including new Natural Wonder events and Wonders themselves (Battle event and Bermuda Triangle in early March, Marvelous Mountains event and Mount Everest in late March), will also be released alongside the paid DLC.

Later in the year, the “Right Rule Collection” will launch, bringing two new leaders, four new civilizations, and four New World Wonders. Additional free content and updates are planned for the period between April and September. Firaxis promises continued post-launch support from October 2025 onward. Specific release dates for all announced content are yet to be revealed.
