Before proceeding ahead, I would start with basic information about the game. Civilization VI is a turn-based strategical 4X multiplayer video game.

However, the sad part is that Civilization VI is the last part of the series.

Later in 2017, the ports of Civilization VI for Linux & iOS were released & 2018 was the year when the game launched exclusively for Nintendo Switch console. Within two weeks of its release, more than 1 million units of Civilization VI were sold. In addition to this, the game won several awards in the gaming category.
Civilization VI Best Leader
I have been following the Civilization video gaming series for so long that I can’t even remember properly. The first Civilization game that I played was the 3rd edition & since then I have seen many changes & improvements in the game. By changes, I mean is that with each edition, new civilizations are introduced. Every Civilization must have a strong leader. So, as a player, you must learn about their behaviors & playing styles from the beginning.
When I talk about my favorite leaders in Civilization 6, I follow only 4-5 leaders out of available leaders. So, if you want to know about them then here is the list of my favorite leaders ranked from top to bottom:
- Peter’s Russia
- Tomyris’ Scythia
- Barbarossa’s Germany
- Qin Shi Huang’s China
- Seondeok’s Korea
As per my point of view, these are my favorite leaders of Civilization VI. Besides, if you play this game then let me your favorite Civilization 6 characters in the comments section given below.

Online Multiplayer not Included in iOS/Switch Version of Civilization VI?
After the released of ‘Rise and Fall’ expansion, several Nintendo users & switch users complained that Civilization 6 does not have any online multiplayer mode. Well, regarding the issue, a representative of Civilization VI explained the reason why a most demanded feature is missing:
“It sounds basic until you realize that both private and public games required significant back end work.”
“Civ VI on desktop utilizes Steam for things like friends lists (required for private games) and server listing (required for public games). Implementing these things per unique system takes considerable effort. I’m aware the Switch has some of those systems, but it still requires custom implementation.”
On asking about the missing online multiplayer mode on the iOS version of the Civilisation VI, he said,” The Mac App Store version and iOS version do not have online multiplayer for similar reasons.”
