Nov 20, 2020 The Babylon Pack is out now. Original story below.
The next entry in the New Frontier Pass run of expansions has been announced. The Babylon Pack will be released next week and will add in a new civilisation, a new leader as well as 24 new great people, six new city-states (one of each type), and two new unique improvements unlocked by the new city-states.
The new civilisation is Babylon - which currently exists in the game only as a scientific-focused city-state. No news yet on who the leader is - there's a couple of popular options from history - but we'll find out more between now and launch. The team has revealed that the Civ-version of Bablyon will also be focusing on science.
As well as the new content above, the Babylon Pack will also introduce a new optional game mode called Heroes & Legend mode. This adds 12 powerful hero units drawn from history's roster of mythical and legendary figures. Each one has a great power and a unique ability and they can be claimed by just one civilisation. Heroes also have a limited lifespan and will disappear after a certain time, but they can be recalled by spending Faith.
