Civilization doet het traditiegetrouw met grote DLC-pakketten, en niet met microtransacties. In deel 6 is dat niet anders, en de eerste grote DLC komt in februari uit. Deze DLC heeft de naam Rise and Fall en kent onder meer nieuwe units en de introductie van de ‘Great Ages’. Hierdoor kun je je beschaving een gouden eeuw geven, maar kun je ook diep in de put komen te zitten. Hieronder kun je een trailer en een volledige lijst met veranderingen vinden. Rise and Fall is vanaf 8 februari verkrijgbaar.
-
Great Ages: As your civilization ebbs and flows, and you reach milestone Historic Moments, you will experience Dark Ages or Golden Ages, each providing specific challenges or bonuses based on your actions in-game. Rise triumphantly from a Dark Age, and your next Golden Age will be even stronger – a Heroic Age.
-
Loyalty: Cities now have individual Loyalty to your leadership – let it fall too low, and face the consequences of low yields, revolts, and the potential to lose your city to another civilization, or its own independence. But one civilization’s loss can be your gain as you inspire Loyalty among cities throughout the map and further expand your borders.
-
Governors: Recruit, appoint, and upgrade powerful characters with unique specialization bonuses and promotion trees to customize your cities, and reinforce Loyalty.
-
Enhanced Alliances: An enhanced alliances system allows players to form different types of alliances and build bonuses over time.
-
Emergencies: When a civilization grows too powerful, other civilizations can join a pact against the threatening civilization and earn rewards, or penalties, when the Emergency ends.
-
Timeline: Review your civilization’s history at any time with the new Timeline feature, a visual journey through the Historic Moments that you encountered on your path to victory.
-
New leaders and civilizations: Nine leaders and eight new civilizations are introduced. Each brings unique bonuses and gameplay, as well as a total of eight unique units, two unique buildings, four unique improvements, and two unique districts.

New global content: Eight new world wonders, seven natural wonders, four new units, two new tile improvements, two new districts, fourteen new buildings, and three new resources have been added.
