This looks like the live stream of the gameplay reveal, starting now:

Highlights as I remember them from the live stream:

  • Play progresses through 3 ages: Antiquity, Exploration, Modern
  • Continue as a different civ when starting each new age
  • Map expands with each new age
  • Leader choice is separate from civ choice
  • Districts
  • Christopher Tin soundtrack
  • Gwendoline Christie narration
  • February 2025 release

Edit: Here's the rerun:

Also noted :

  • Navigable rivers
  • terrain has cliffs
  • armies seems to be condensed, with generals leading them. Fighting looks to be constant in some way? (or that's just the render for the trailer)
  • cities seem to expand much more
  • the leaders looks to have some stats which can be improved
