Civilization VII: что изменилось в механике смены эпох после патча 1.4.0

Серия Civilization всегда строилась вокруг одной простой идеи: взять маленькое поселение и провести его через всю историю — от древности до современности. Именно это ощущение долгого развития и делало партии такими затягивающими. Вы постепенно строили империю, переживали войны, кризисы, научные прорывы и наблюдали, как ваша держава меняется спустя сотни игровых лет. Но в Civilization VII Firaxis решила заметно встряхнуть привычную формулу. Кампанию разделили на три эпохи, а при переходе между ними игра предлагала сменить цивилизацию. Одним игрокам такой подход понравился из-за свежих механик, а другие быстро начали скучать по классическому ощущению одной большой истории. Мнения тут полярные. Давайте разбираться, что там и как.

Civilization 7's imminent update will add one of history's most famous conquerors, Alexander the Great, for free, in Firaxis' latest bid to coax you back to its controversial sequel

Tests of Time has one last surprise in store.

Civ 7 is getting 'by far the most-requested addition' later this month, but I'm more interested in whether it'll finally feel fully baked

Firaxis says the massive Test of Time update is Civ 7’s “biggest and most fundamentally game-changing.”

#Firaxis just announced "Test of Time", a free update for #CivilizationVII and honestly, it feels like the game I was waiting for since launch.

The forced #civ-switching between Ages is gone 🔥 You now start as one civilisation and stay as one, with customised cultural combinations that shape how your empire evolves. Exactly what I called from day one.

(The old Age-switching is still there for those who want it)

Add a reworked Victory system, 90+ new Triumph objectives and a new map type on top of that, and Civ 7 has gone from a frustrating mess to something actually worth my time.

Now we only need the Modern Age — and maybe a Future Age — and the game is complete.

Drops 19 May 2026. Better late than never.
