Civilization Beyond Earth

About game

Set in a distant future where humanity has ventured beyond Earth, "Civilization: Beyond Earth" expands the beloved Civilization franchise into the realm of science fiction. Players take on the role of a leader of a faction that has landed on an alien planet, tasked with establishing a new civilization while grappling with the challenges posed by an unknown environment and extraterrestrial life forms. The game introduces innovative mechanics, such as the use of "Affinities"—three different ideological paths (Purity, Harmony, and Supremacy) that shape the development of technology, military strategies, and diplomatic relations. Players must strategically choose which path aligns best with their goals and adapt their tactics accordingly. The game features a diverse array of new technologies, units, and buildings, set against stunning alien landscapes filled with unique resources and mysterious flora and fauna. Exploration plays a crucial role, as players uncover ancient alien artifacts, face potential threats from native species, and establish cities in a world that can be both hostile and hospitable. "Civilization: Beyond Earth" also enhances multiplayer gameplay, allowing friends and foes alike to compete for dominance on the alien frontier, fostering intense battles and intricate diplomacy. Through a blend of traditional 4X gameplay and innovative sci-fi elements, the game invites players to ponder humanity's future beyond our home planet.
