Sid Meier's Civilization V: Gods & Kings Bringing Back Religion


The mainly atheistic Civilization V will be getting an expansion pack in the name of Gods & Kings that will be adding religion and espionage into the game. In their 2K blog, 2K announced the expansion and detailed some of it's additions. The new expansion will add new units, wonders, techs, new civilization such as: the mayans, netherlands, and Celts. Religion in the expansion is described as "Using the new "Faith" resource, you'll be able to found your own religion and grow it from a simple Pantheon of the Gods to a world-spanning fully-customized religion". New religious city states will be introduced. Espionage however, wasn't my favourite mechanic in Civilization IV(added in Beyond The Sword)... but they saw it fit to reintroduce it to CIv 5 in this expansion pack. Gods & Kings is targeted for a late Spring 2012 release.
