Update 1.5.1 released for Civilization VII

Dateline: 11/10/2026

Update 1.5.1 for Sid Meier’s Civilization VII dropped today on all platforms.

From 2K:

his update continues to refine and iterate on the existing foundation of the game, including building on the recent diplomacy focus with Liberation, giving players the power to return conquered settlements to their original founders.

On the UI side, managing your empire gets a big quality-of-life boost with the new Map Search and Unit List panels. We’re also iterating on our recent Earth release with Random Earth - which shuffles Resources, Rivers, and Wonders across the familiar Earth - plus the quirky new Donut Map. And finally, we’ve taken a fresh pass at Great People, removing them from city production queues entirely, so they unlock naturally through civ-specific milestones. For a full list of changes, check out the Update 1.5.1 patch notes here.
