Sid Meir’s futuristic strategy game Civilization: Beyond Earth is out today on PC. The latest in the long running series follows the very successful Civilization 5.

Civilization: Beyond Earth is a turn based strategy game that begins with humanity leaving earth to search for habitable planets. When you arrive, you’ll have the usual task of setting up your civilization while dealing with a planet that isn’t entirely pleased to see you setting up home.

Civilization: Beyond Earth has a multiplayer mode for up to 8 players, and will support mods right from the start, so the game’s community can have fun adding its own content.

The first reviews have started to appear, and they are almost universally very positive. It seems that as well as the new futuristic setting, developer Firaxis has addressed the criticisms of its previous game, making this one of the best Civilization games ever. Our review will be online soon.
