New Seasonal Event: Chart a Course
Kicking off the start of the year with another brand-new game mode, Chart a Course. Players who select this mode will periodically receive a choice from three powerful upgrades. Look to the stars and chart your course as you adapt your civilization to the ever changing and challenging world around you! [b]Login between February 13th at 10:00am PT (1:00pm ET / 18:00 UTC) and March 31st to share in the season’s festivities![/b]
[quote][i]Known Issue: We're still adjusting to the New Year! One of the Chart a Course event challenges references "2024" instead of "2025." Rest assured, logging in this year will earn you the reward.[/i][/quote]
