PROCESSOR: Fourth generation Intel Core i5 2.5 Ghz or AMD FX8350 4.0 Ghz or greater

Apart from all the stuff above, you will require Steam and an internet connection to authenticate the game. There’s also a bunch of redistributable packages required, but they’re all included in the installation, so that shouldn’t be a problem.

Civilization VI releases worldwide on Oct. 21 for PC only. In the latest First Look trailer for the game, we got a look at the Roman civilization, led by Trajan.
