Colonization Screenshots and News from E3

E3, an expo for video games, is currently being held this week, and one of the games featured was 2K Games' Sid Meier's Civilization IV: Colonization, the standalone expansion pack for Civ4. As expected, a lot of new information regarding the game, in terms of screenshots, previews, and other news, has been published, though a specific date for its release still remains unknown. Major gaming sites IGN and Gamespot have their own previews, as well as Shacknews.

New screenshots, whose thumbnails below you can click to see a larger version, have been added to the Colonization gallery. They feature some of our first looks at the brand-new interface and city management system!

Additionally, Firaxis’ Jon Shafer has confirmed on the forums that there will indeed be several pre-made historical maps for the game, putting fears about random-only maps to rest. Forum member magikarcher also revealed in a thread that the full game of the 1994 version of Colonization is included in this month’s PC Gamer magazine.
