Civilization V gets Steam Workshop support with Gods & Kings expansion
2K have announced that Civilization V's existing mod browser feature will be overhauled and replaced with the Steam Workshop following the release of the Gods & Kings expansion.
The change will affect all players, not just those who've bought the add-on. It'll allow you to rate mods and subscribe to collections and authors in exactly the same way as Team Fortress 2, Skyrim and Portal 2.
Check out Tyler's hands-on for more information on the expansion. Later in the week, 2K will be posting further instructions for existing modders on the game's official forums . Civilization V: Gods & Kings is due on the 19th of June in North America and the 22nd everywhere else.
Is Workshop support enough to rekindle - or start - a Civ addiction, readers?
