On this day, July 12, in 100 BC, Julius Caesar was born in Suburra, Italy. To celebrate, we'd like to remind you that you can add the birthday boy to your roster of playable Civilization VI leaders by linking your 2K Account to the Steam Account that you use to play. You can find instructions on how to create and link a 2K Account below.

Unsurprisingly, Caesar's military prowess makes him ideally suited to aggressive play in pursuit of Domination Victories, which are achieved by conquering the original Capital city of every other civilization. Waging war on a global scale is expensive, so making the most of Caesar's unique "Veni, Vidi, Vici" leader ability is key. With it, you receive 200 Gold whenever you conquer a city for the first time, or 100 Gold when you clear a Barbarian Outpost. Once you research Steel, these Gold amounts both increase to 500!

How will you choose to lead as Julius Caesar on his birthday? Perhaps you want to recreate history by playing on the True Start Location Earth Huge map? Or maybe you want to mix things up by interacting peacefully with some Barbarians in Barbarian Clans mode? Regardless of how you choose to celebrate as Caesar, we hope you have fun and emerge victorious!
