Sid Meier's Civilization Revolution 2+ is scheduled to be released on December 2015 in Japan.
Sid Meier’s Civilization Revolution 2+ has been rumoured for a while now. It was first rated back in May of this year, then the trophy list for the handheld game turned up online a few weeks back.
Today, popular online gaming outlet Play-Asia.com started accepting pre-orders for the strategy title.
yes! I will definitely be getting this one. I've been hoping that this game would see the light of day.
Surprised it's getting a physical release to be honest. Something of a rarity these days on the Vita...
Not at all a rarity in Asia, which is the region this game is getting a physical release in.
Good point, actually. I don't really know much about Asian's buying habits, I naively assumed the situation was the same all around.
Surprised this is coming out to be honest. Simply because the website I saw post it had posted another Vita rumor involveing Resident Evil that turned out to be not true.
I played the original game and disliked it severely. It might be fun for someone who has never played a proper civ game but if you HAVE done that then CivRev offers nothing IMHO.
I felt it was a great Civ game for console. I don't know how you could do Civ 4 or 5 on a console, so this was a great way to garner new fans of the series. I think a lot would be lost in translation if you tried to make a straight PC port.
EB: 2K has announced the arrival of the 2K Editors’ Choice Strategy Bundle on the iOS App Store, which will contain the iOS versions of Civilization Revolution 2, XCOM: Enemy Within, and Sid Meirer’s Starships. The bundle will cost $19.99, which is a 60% saving over buying the games individually. This will be a limited time offer, so act now or be left out in the 2K Non-Strategy-Having cold!

The smaller maps and streamlined mechanics make for perfect portable entertainment. It's just annoying that we're left feeling that what we're getting is mainly an updated visual finish. If you already own the original you'll likely be disappointed by the lack of new features as it relates to the price tag. But, it's far from a poor game. We only hope that a few quirks are sorted via updates, and that a multiplayer mode is coming soon."
If this makes its way to Android I will definitely give it a try on my Shield. I really liked Civ Rev 1 and would welcome a portable version.
