This DLC requires the base game Sid Meier’s Civilization® V to play.

• New Civilization: Babylon
• Leader: Nebuchadnezzar II
• Unique Unit: Bowman

Add one of history’s most brilliant early empires to your campaign with the Sid Meier’s Civilization® V: Civilization Pack – Babylon for Mac. Lead Nebuchadnezzar II and turn a city-state on the Euphrates into a world-defining powerhouse of science and defense. Babylon is built for players who love planning ahead, protecting key cities, and racing toward game-changing technologies.

With the right strategy, Babylon can outpace rivals in the tech tree and leverage advanced units, wonders, and diplomacy to shape the world on your terms.
