Civilization 7's launch has garnered mixed Steam reviews, yet Take-Two's CEO remains optimistic. While early access players, often hardcore fans, have voiced concerns about the UI, limited map variety, and missing features, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick highlights the game's positive Metacritic score (81) and numerous reviews exceeding 90. He attributes the negative feedback to the innovative changes implemented by Firaxis, suggesting that the "legacy Civ audience" will appreciate the game's depth with increased playtime.
The game's current early access phase has revealed some UI issues, which Zelnick confirms Firaxis is actively addressing. Further improvements include planned additions of multiplayer teams and expanded map types. Zelnick's confidence stems from the belief that the game's unique Age Transition system – a complete overhaul introducing civilization selection and Legacy retention across Antiquity, Exploration, and Modern Ages – will ultimately resonate with players.
However, Firaxis faces the challenge of improving the game's Steam user review rating. This rating significantly impacts the game's visibility and overall success on the platform, as it serves as a prominent indicator of player satisfaction. The company's immediate focus is on addressing the identified issues and shifting player sentiment towards a more positive reception.
