Where to Buy Sid Meier's Civilization VII and Which Editions Are Listed
Updated
The official Sid Meier's Civilization VII site at civilization.2k.com sends buyers to a single purchase page at civilization.2k.com/civ-vii/buy/. From that page, the listed options are the Standard Edition, Deluxe Edition, and Settlers Edition, plus a separate Earthrise release that currently shows a Wishlist Now option rather than a buy link. The site states the game is available on PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch.
The official purchase entry point
Start at the main site and look for the BUY NOW button. Every buy link on the site resolves to the same purchase page, with an edition parameter appended to the URL:
| Edition | Link pattern on the site |
|---|---|
| Standard Edition | civilization.2k.com/civ-vii/buy/?release=civilization-vii-standard-edition |
| Deluxe Edition | civilization.2k.com/civ-vii/buy/?release=civilization-vii-deluxe-edition |
| Settlers Edition | civilization.2k.com/civ-vii/buy/?release=civilization-vii-settlers-edition |
| Earthrise | civilization.2k.com/civ-vii/buy/?release=civilization-vii-earthrise/ (Wishlist Now) |
If you already know which edition you want, going straight to the matching link skips a step. If you are still deciding, open the base buy page and compare there.
What each listing tells you
- Standard Edition — the base game listing, linked with a BUY NOW label.
- Deluxe Edition — a higher-tier listing, also linked with BUY NOW.
- Settlers Edition — a further edition listing, also linked with BUY NOW.
- Earthrise — a separate release on the same buy page, labeled Wishlist Now instead of BUY NOW.
The site does not publish prices, included content, or platform-by-platform availability for these editions in the material available here. Treat the edition names as the confirmed list and check the buy page itself for what each one contains before paying.
Choosing between the listings
Because the site presents three purchasable editions without itemized contents, the practical decision rule is:
- You want the game with no extras — start with the Standard Edition link.
- You expect to want the additional content the higher tiers carry — compare Deluxe and Settlers on the buy page before committing, since buying up later is usually not equivalent.
- You are interested in Earthrise — it is not yet purchasable through this page; use Wishlist Now and wait for a buy option to appear.
A concrete case: if you plan to play on Nintendo Switch and want the version with the most included material, open the Deluxe and Settlers links side by side on the buy page and confirm the Switch version is offered for each before choosing. The official site confirms Switch as a supported platform, but the edition listings themselves should be checked for platform coverage at the point of purchase.
Common snags
- All buy buttons lead to one page. Do not expect separate storefronts per edition; the edition is selected by the URL parameter or on the page itself.
- Earthrise is wishlist-only right now. A missing BUY NOW on that listing is expected, not a broken link.
- No price or payment details are published on the site pages referenced here. Confirm currency, payment methods, and any account or login requirements on the buy page before entering details.
For the broader question of what the site is and which platforms the game supports, the official site itself is the authoritative source: PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch, with purchasing handled through the buy page above.
