Civilization 7, the highly anticipated addition to the beloved strategy game series, has already made waves in the gaming community since its confirmation just a few months ago. In a move that has been warmly welcomed by fans, the game will not be utilizing the 2K launcher, a decision that aligns with the recent trend set by its predecessor, Civilization 6.

For many PC gamers, the frustration of juggling multiple launchers is a common grievance. The question often arises: if one is already using Steam, why add another layer of complexity with additional launchers? This sentiment has resonated deeply within the Civilization fanbase, particularly due to the previous reliance on the 2K launcher. However, Firaxis Games community manager Sarah Engel has put those concerns to rest with a recent announcement confirming the absence of the 2K launcher for Civilization 7.

This event promises to provide a closer look at what players can expect from the new installment, further fueling anticipation for the next chapter in the Civilization saga.
