Firaxis Games studio has unveiled another trailer for Sid Meier's Civilisation 7 historical 4X-strategy, which introduces another national leader.

Here's What We Know

When starting a game for America, players will be able to choose Ben Franklin, one of the founding fathers of the United States, as their leader.

This outstanding man can emphasise scientific development or focus on diplomacy. In the role of leader, Franklin gives the player additional production and science points for placing production buildings in cities and guarantees some other bonuses that will help to discover new technologies faster.
