Sid Meier's Civilization IV is an award-winning strategy game that challenges players to build and expand an empire, throughout all of human history, and become the most powerful ruler the world has ever known. With the Sid Meier's Civilization IV: Warlords expansion pack, players have even more options to win by military might - including the powerful Warlord unit - and have six new civilizations, ten new leaders and eight additional scenarios from which to choose.
In addition to Civilization IV and Civilization IV: Warlords, Sid Meier's Civilization IV: Gold Edition includes these bonus features:
- Exclusive fantasy-style poster from world-famous artist Greg Hildebrandt (illustrator of the original "Star Wars" fantasy-themed "Clash of the Titans" movie poster, "Lord of the Rings" calendars and posters and other seminal artwork)
- Behind-the-scenes DVD with developer interviews, insight into the Civilization IV development process and a short feature on Sid Meier's video game history
- Tech-tree poster featuring the paths to researching and discovering all of the technologies needed to advance in Civilization IV
- Civilization IV Game Manual
"Sid Meier's Civilization IV: Gold Edition is a great way to get into the award-winning Civilization IV series," said Christoph Hartmann, President of 2K. "Gamers will now have the chance to change the course of world history and relive battles from every era of the past with both Civilization IV games in one box - in stores just in advance of the highly anticipated second Civ IV expansion pack, Beyond the Sword."
Sid Meier's Civilization IV: Gold Edition will ship on July 17th for the PC.
