Not sure if Spin-off or Civ VI but it has been announced and it's straying from the regular games o.o
The game will be set in the future this time and will focus on space colonization.

new CG intro:


Right from the Civ Site:
Sid Meier's website minion wrote:
Sid Meier's Civilization®: Beyond Earth™ is a new science-fiction-themed entry into the award-winning Civilization series. Set in the future, global events have destabilized the world leading to a collapse of modern society, a new world order and an uncertain future for humanity. As the human race struggles to recover, the re-developed nations focus their resources on deep space travel to chart a new beginning for mankind. As part of an expedition sent to find a home beyond Earth, you will write the next chapter for humanity as you lead your people into a new frontier and create a new civilization in space. Explore and colonize an alien planet, research new technologies, amass mighty armies, build incredible Wonders and shape the face of your new world. As you embark on your journey you must make critical decisions. From your choice of sponsor and the make-up of your colony, to the ultimate path you choose for your civilization, every decision opens up new possibilities.

FEATURES

Seed the Adventure: Establish your cultural identity by choosing one of eight different expedition sponsors, each with its own leader and unique gameplay benefits. Assemble your spacecraft, cargo & colonists through a series of choices that directly seed the starting conditions when arriving at the new planet.

Colonize an Alien World: Explore the dangers and benefits of a new planet filled with dangerous terrain, mystical resources, and hostile life forms unlike those of Earth. Build outposts, unearth ancient alien relics, tame new forms of life, develop flourishing cities and establish trade routes to create prosperity for your people.

Technology Web: To reflect progress forward into an uncertain future, technology advancement occurs through a series of nonlinear choices that affect the development of mankind. The technology web is organized around three broad themes, each with a distinct victory condition.

Quest System: Quests are injected with fiction about the planet, and help to guide you through a series of side-missions that will aid in resource collection, unit upgrades, and advancement through the game.

Orbital Layer: Build and deploy advanced military, economic and scientific units that provide strategic offensive, defensive and support capabilities from orbit.

Unit Customization: Unlock different upgrades through the tech web and customize your units to reflect your play style.

Multiplayer: Up to 8 players can compete for dominance of a new alien world.

Mod support: Robust mod support allows you to customize and extend your game experience.

Spoiler!

Looks interesting, but if I ever buy it, I'll never play multiplayer out of the fear that I'll just get completely destroyed. When I play Civ 5, I like to play economically, like have amassed a huge army, and developed central city before I start annexing or attacking other cities/players. I don't like the zerg rush type of play style; so I hope they have a game mode that caters to that.

They have some really good potential with the seeding feature. They can do something like this:
Pick 1 out of each category:
Humans: Scientists, Mathematicians, Politicians, or Businessmen
Plants/Agriculture: x,x,x,x
Technology: x,x,x,x

But with enough categories; so that each different choice will yield a completely different experience.

How does MP even work in Civ D:
A single game takes like 16 hours to finish...

The intro cinematic is out:


Civilization CG's are always so good :yay:
It's not even that the CG itself is amazing quality, but they always pay attention to the correct tiny details to make it seem realistic and believable.

That might be the most useless trailer I have ever watched for any medium.

waht? what's wrong with it?? It's just a bit of backstory.
It's not even a trailer though, it's the intro CG you'll be seein when you boot the game...

__________
Oh yeah, seems the retail version comes with a poster too :o
I really hope it's a large version of the boxart. I'd love a poster of that. Would definitely 100% buy the game then... eventually. Got a lot of stuff on steam to work on before I get there :D

Lemme guess, PC only? Seems like a game style that would work pretty well on tablets.
