TECUMSEH AND THE SHAWNEE TRIBE TO BE FEATURED IN SID MEIER’S CIVILIZATION VII

Update (10/2/24): Special Livestream Event

On Tuesday, October 8, join the Sid Meier’s Civilization team at 10:00 AM PDT / 1:00 PM EDT for a Tecumseh livestream featuring special guests from the Shawnee Tribe.


The Shawnee Tribe is set to be featured in the upcoming release of Sid Meier’s Civilization VII, a popular video game series that enables players to build and lead their own civilizations in their attempt to stand the test of time. Developed by Firaxis Games and published by 2K, the Civilization franchise is well-regarded not only for its entertainment value but also for its ability to inspire players to learn about diverse cultures and leaders that have shaped history.

In Sid Meier’s Civilization VII, the entire span of human history is divided into distinct playable chapters called Ages. Each Age contains a set of unique civilizations, chosen for their prominence during that period of time. Players select a unique leader, the Age they want to play in, and an associated civilization from that Age to represent themselves in the game. Tecumseh is available as a leader to select, and players can play as the Shawnee during the Exploration Age.

Each leader and civilization has a unique style of play, and representatives from the Shawnee Tribe worked closely with Firaxis and 2K during the game’s development to ensure that Shawnee values and historical experiences are portrayed with respect and authenticity. Early details on how the Shawnee are represented in the game are available to learn here, and more information about this partnership will be shared later in early October.

Sid Meier’s Civilization VII will be released on February 11, 2025; for more information, please visit the official website: https://civilization.2k.com/civ-vii/.
