Wow finally one that's worth getting
Terra and wizard of legend are both great.
they all have been, with dark and darker dlc being the exception tbh
Dredge is awesome though
Honestly, good grab compared to all the other stuff they've been throwing out
Hopefully your loved ones can get you this next year. For now, merry Christmas, and enjoy this deal tomorrow
Woops! Thx, just ordered the "Learn to Read Activity Book", I'll come back here if I strike any tough words.
Also, it's $112.95 not $4.49 :)
Hoping after Boxing Day they’ll give us a AAA title.
Thanks, that's very civilized of Epic.
“I’ll go to bed after this turn…”
"Just one more bargain…"
Thanks op
This is Epic. CIV8 schedule to come out in late Feb 2025.
CIV8 schedule to come out in late Feb 2025.
Maybe you mean Civ VII?
According to Steam, Civ VII will be released on 12 Feb 2025.
Pretty sure Civ7 is coming out first.
How big is this game btw?
One year if you play an hour each day and finish everything.
How Long To Beat - Sid Meier's Civilization VI
Noice. Had it in my steam wish list forever
Technically not a repeat because it wasn't the Platinum edition but the standard edition was given the freebie 22-28 May 2020.
About that. It seems if you claimed the standard edition on that giveaway then you can't claim the Platinum edition because it shows as unavailable. Because it's detecting that you own the standard edition (base game). So this kind of sux.
You're probably right and Epic probably won't care but lets just wait and see what happens at 3am.
This shows as unavailable for me because i already claimed the base Civilization VI on that giveaway from a few years ago. I won't be able to claim.
Can we remove the original version and then claim the Platinum version?
Nope. You can't remove a game from the account.
you can by chatting/emailing with support. I have done it myself.
Ah crap, my family will be reporting me MIA for the next 1 month now….
It looks like that won't be happening now.
This game looks very boring. Is it worth getting?
ozbargain spirit says, take the freebie
This game looks very boring. Is it worth getting?
A game with millions of fans since 1991, with the 7th iteration releasing next year, giving away the 6th for free.
Naaaah, not worth bothering.
Why did you even post this if it wasn't legit nor confirmed?
It did have a countdown last night. Now it's showing unavailable on Epic. How does this work?
It shows as unavailable if you already own the standard edition on your account. It won't let you buy or claim the Platinum edition (if its being given for free) but shows as unavailable. A few years ago they gave the standard edition away for free of a freebie giveaway. Maybe you got it from that. Oh well. At least that giveaway for the standard edition back then was real.
Yeah for me (having claimed the freebie) it shows as Unavailable. But I just tried loading the page in a different Firefox container (i.e. logged out from my Epic account) and it shows up as full price, not free
Yes i know, well because the game isn't free. This was a case of a game giveaway deal post which turned out to be false. You know getting people excited over nothing.
So what happened to this. No Civ VI Platinum. This was nonsense.
Knew it was too good to be true.
Still salty
