The first DLC, Crossroads of the World, will be released in two parts this March. In the initial phase, players can lead the civilizations of Great Britain and Carthage, and will meet the new leader Ada Lovelace, a pioneering figure in computer science. The second phase follows three weeks later, introducing Simon Bolivar as a leader and adding Bulgaria and Nepal as playable civilizations.
Another DLC, titled Right to Rule, is scheduled for launch in the second or third quarter of 2025 (April through September). This expansion will introduce two additional leaders, four new civilizations, and several natural wonders.
Firaxis has committed to broadening and refining the game experience with fresh content. March will see the introduction of new in-game events and natural wonders, including the Bermuda Triangle and Mount Everest.
