Developed by Firaxis Games, Sid Meier’s Civilization V reinvigorates the classic turn-based strategy genre with an astonishing new engine built from the ground-up for this flagship edition of the Sid Meier’s Civilization franchise.

Features of Sid Meier’s Civilization V Mac include:
- Hexagonal tiles that allow for deeper strategy, more realistic gameplay and stunning organic landscapes for players to explore as they expand their empire.
- A brand new engine which orchestrates a spectacular visual experience that brings players closer to the Civ experience than ever before, featuring fully animated leaders interacting with players from a screen-filling diplomatic scene and speaking in their native language for the first time.
- Wars between empires that feel massive as armies dominate the landscape, and combat is more exciting and intense than ever before.
- The addition of ranged bombardment that allows weapons to be fired from behind the front lines, and challenges players to develop clever new strategies to guarantee victory on the battlefield.
