The strategy game Sid Meier's Civilization VI from the developer Firaxis Games published in 2019 still draws in countless people. Especially the second expansion, Gathering Storm, is very popular among players. In Gathering Storm, your decisions have an impact on the environment, so you should always give them enough thought. We at PLITCH give you an overview of some of the new features of the DLC so you’ll be off to a good start in Sid Meier's Civilization VI - Gathering Storm. New Features Besides the influence of your decisions on the environment, you'll also be able to research advanced technologies, conduct negotiations at the World Congress, and build many new units, districts, modernizations, and buildings. Additionally, there are seven world wonders to discover and there are eight civilizations as well as nine leaders in Gathering Storm. Energy and Technology System There’s an energy system that allows you to make some buildings more effective. To generate energy, you'll need resources such as coal, uranium, and oil. However, the production of energy releases CO2, which of course has an impact on the environment. Through research, you can look for alternatives, such as wind farms, solar parks, etc. However, your research lab also needs energy to run. The three raw materials coal, oil, and uranium are therefore very important in Gathering Storm. In Sid Meier's Civilization VI, the technology system has also been revised. There are now two technology trees and a variety of new technologies. Natural Wonders Also, a variety of natural wonders have been added in Gathering Storm, namely the following: Sahara el Beyda, Pamukkale, Mount Vesuvius, Mato Tipila, Ik-Kil, Gobustan, and Chocolate Hills.
