Civ 6: Gathering Storm: release date, new civs, climate change, and World Congress

Revealed in November with a new trailer and a round of interviews, Gathering Storm is the next expansion for Civ 6. It's due for release in mid-February next year, and as with its predecessor, Rise and Fall, you can expect a steady drip, drip of new civ and content reveals in the intervening weeks. When those reveals occur, we'll drop them right here, along with everything else we know so far about what developer Firaxis is calling "the largest expansion ever developed for the series". We've scoured the internet to bring you all the latest on new civs, new game systems, and new global content - meaning new units, wonders, districts, and more. Gathering Storm has an ecological theme, adding natural disasters, carbon emissions via coal-burning power plants, and modelling their consequent impact on our planet's climate. Unless you plan on using the new, map-altering engineering projects to mitigate said impacts, international cooperation is needed. Thus the World Congress makes its welcome return - and with it, the diplomatic victory. Read on for all the details about how this will work.
