It’s another big day for Civilization VI, as the strategy title has received another drop of content from the Vietnam and Kublai Khan Pack. Additionally, all players can access a free update.

The full patch notes for Civilization VI are as follows:

[Kublai Khan and Vietnam Pack]
[New Features]
Civilization: Vietnam
Unique Ability – Nine Dragon River Delta
All land specialty districts can only be built on Rainforest, Marsh, or Woods. Receive the following yields for every building on these features: +1 Culture in Woods, +1 Science in Rainforest and +1 Production in Marsh. Woods can be planted with the Medieval Faires civic.
Unique Unit – Voi Chiến
Vietnamese unique Medieval era ranged unit that replaces the Crossbowman. These units have additional movement and can move after attacking. They are also stronger when defending, more expensive, and have greater sight.
Unique District – Thành
A district unique to Vietnam which replaces the Encampment. +2 Culture for each adjacent district. After Flight is researched, receive Tourism equal to the Culture output. This district does not require population, is cheaper to build, cannot be built adjacent to the city center, and is not considered a specialty district.
Leader: Bà Triệu
Ability – Drive Out the Aggressors
+5 Combat Strength for units fighting in Rainforest, Marsh, and Woods tiles. +1 Movement if they begin their turn there. Both of these bonuses are doubled if the tile is your territory.
Agenda – Defender of the Homeland

Agenda – Pax Mongolica
Likes civilizations that have both a strong military strength and Gold per turn.
Dislikes civilizations that are weak in Gold per turn and military strength.
Monopolies and Corporations Game Mode
The Monopolies and Corporations mode enables you to build profitable Industries around Luxury resources, found Corporations to further their development, and manufacture unique Products to secure your place in capitalist history. Monopolies on resources grant the player additional Gold and Tourism, based on the number of resources controlled and the number of foreign trading partners. By controlling 2 or more of a specific Luxury resource and having the Currency tech researched, players can establish an Industry around that resource by having their Builder construct a special improvement, which gives bonuses unique to the resource to the host city. Controlling 3 of the same resource and having the Economics tech researched allows your Great Merchants to create a powerful Corporation by constructing a special improvement on top of the Industry.
Corporations double the Industry effect in its host city, and they have the added ability to create Products based on the resource they are founded on. Products award the Industry effect in any city where the product resides. Like Great Works, Products must be slotted into certain buildings.
Stock Exchange – 3 Product Slots
