Journey to the Industrial Era with our custom-modded Civilization VII PC

We're all champing at the bit to get our hands on Sid Meier’s Civilization VII, the latest edition of the legendary franchise from Firaxis Games and the #1 Most Wanted game during December's PC Gaming Show. To celebrate its release on February 11, we decided to hold a sweepstakes and give away a custom-modded PC, themed to one of the Ages featured in the game, that serve as a core campaign mechanic.

For the project, we teamed up with the incredible modders at Blue Horse Studios to create three mock-ups of our planned powerhouse. We asked PC Gamer readers which of the three ages (Antiquity, Exploration, or Modern) they wanted to see brought to life. Which did they choose? Watch our video to see the gorgeous result of this collaboration. Congratulations to our lucky winner who gets to take home this incredible PC. Get ready to take one more turn until the wee hours of the morning this February 11.
