Firaxis Games has revealed yet another leader for Civilization VI, however this time it’s for a previously detailed civilization.
The proud and powerful Queen Gorgo of Sparta, known as the wife of the indomitable King Leonidas I, will also lead the Greeks in the upcoming strategy game.
Firaxis has confirmed that multiple leaders will once again be available for each civilization, bringing different abilities and city-districts for the game civilization. Gorgo will also get the Greek-specific unit, the Hoplite, as well as their unique district, the Acropolis.
Featured above, you can view Queen Gorgo’s introduction trailer. Here’s some more about her unique ability, as well as her behavior as an AI:
LEADER ABILITY: THERMOPYLAE
Gorgo’s unique ability allows her to gain Culture from conflict. Whenever her units are victorious in combat, she’ll accrue Culture equal to 50% of the base strength of the defeated unit.
LEADER AGENDA: WITH YOUR SHIELD OR ON IT
Gorgo seeks glory in combat, therefore she will never give up items in a peace deal. She prefers civs who haven’t yielded in a peace deal and dislikes any civ who has surrendered in a peace deal or any civ who has never engaged in war.
Civilization VI is launching on October 21st, for PC. You can pre-order Civilization VI over on Steam.
(Editor’s Note: Multiple civilization leaders were originally introduced back in Civilization IV. The article has been re-worded to avoid confusion)
