Sid Meier's Civilization VI · published
During The Game Awards 2024, we were thrilled to unveil the "Rediscover Hope" Opening Cinematic Trailer for Sid Meier's Civilization® VII, showcasing the intro cinematic voiced by Civ VII narrator Gwendoline Christie. In the video above, you can watch the Opening Cinematic Trailer's inspirational story as it unfolds across the Ages.
The "Rediscover Hope" Opening Cinematic Trailer also marks the debut of the Civilization VII Main Theme, entitled "Live Gloriously" and composed by Grammy Award-winning Christopher Tin, the same acclaimed composer behind the legendary "Baba Yetu" Civilization IV Main Theme and "Sogno di Volare" Civilization VI Main Theme.
"With 'Live Gloriously,' I wanted to capture universal themes of hope, heroism, and mortality that have resonated across history," says Tin. "You'll hear words from The Iliad, Beowulf, Popol Vuh, and Ramayana, delivering a beautiful sense of gravity and emotion that embodies the story of humanity."
During The Game Awards 10th Anniversary broadcast, "Live Gloriously" was performed live by The Game Awards Orchestra. Listen to the "Live Gloriously" Civilization VII Main Theme in full with the official Original Soundtrack video below.
We can't wait for you to experience the opening cinematic firsthand and listen to the main theme time and again when you play Civilization VII for yourself. You can pre-order Civilization VII now ahead of its launch on February 11, 2025.
