Civilization VI

Civilization VI received its Maya & Gran Colombia Pack this week, which can be obtained through the New Frontier Pass or individually. A bunch of content was added and there’s also a pretty significant update for all players – even without having purchased the DLC.

Here’s the full rundown as to everything that’s new and updated:

Civilization VI

Publisher 2K and developer Firaxis have announced the New Frontier Pass for Civilization VI, a season pass that encompasses eight new civilizations, nine new leaders, six new game modes, and more. Players can expect new content to arrive in the form of six DLC packs delivered on a bimonthly basis between May 21, 2020 and March 2021.

Those who purchase the New Frontier Pass will receive the Teddy Roosevelt and Catherine De Medici Persona Packs as exclusive bonuses. These offer “a brand-new take on a favorite leader, with a new leader model and background, new gameplay bonuses and an updated agenda that reflects the changes to the leader’s personality.” 2K says Rough Rider Teddy “excels at keeping the peace on his home continent” whereas Magnificence Catherine “can use Luxuries to overwhelm the world with Culture and Tourism.” Both Persona Packs will be available with the second DLC Pack in July.

To prepare for the launch of XCOM 2 Collection on Switch in late May, 2K Games has put together a video explaining everything you need to know about the game. We’ve included it below.

We know that the physical version of XCOM 2 Collection will require an extra download, as this is clearly stated on the game’s boxart. According to a listing on EB Games Canada, that download will clock in at 24GB. The final number hasn’t been officially confirmed by 2K at this time.

Civilization VI

Civilization VI has been given a much-needed update on Switch. Version 1.2.2.0 is out now for all players.

After the previous update for the game was released on Switch, a number of reports came in regarding crashing. Those issues have apparently been addressed with the new patch, so be sure to download the update.

Update: 2K says it’s working on a fix and has a workaround (see below).


Original: Civilization VI’s latest update appears to be causing major issues on Switch. Due to a bug, players have reported that the game is crashing just as they’re about to win a game. It doesn’t appear to be limited to a small subset of users and is happening regularly.

2K Games has yet to comment on the situation nor is there any word on any imminent patch to address these problems. If we do receive a status update, we’ll be sure to let you know.
