Quick Links
InCivilization 7, Victoriescan be unlocked in the Modern Ageafter you complete a specific Legacy Path. There are four Legacy Paths with a final Victory available for each, as well as the fifth Score Victory that will occur if the Modern Age progresses to 100%.
You do not necessarily need to follow each Legacy Path in every Era to achieve Victoryconditions in the Modern Age, though it can help. Instead, to achieve the Cultural, Economic, Military, or Scientific Victories inCiv 7,players need to achieve specific goalsthat can only be met in the Modern Age, capped by a final Victory project.
Score Victory
The Score Victory is achieved in the Modern Agewhen the Age Progression reaches 100% without someone securing another Victory Condition. If many players are able to achieve multiple different Legacy Path milestones, the Modern Age will progress very quickly, and you may not get the chance to actually finish out a specific Victory Condition.
Theplayer with the most Legacy Score points will win the game if the Modern Age ends. Currently, there is no way to turn off the Score Victory inCiv 7.
Pay attention to the Age Progression meter and slow down on other Legacy Paths from your main Victory to prevent the game from ending before you’ve earned one of theCiv 7Victories.
Cultural Victory – Geographic Society
To get a Cultural Victory,Civ 7players must acquire and display 15 Artifacts throughout all of their Settlements. To do this, you need to create Explorers to travel to other tiles, through opponents' borders, to dig up Artifacts from around the world.
You mustresearch the Natural History Civic to start training (or purchasing) Explorer units. Once created, guide them to the location of an Artifact and use their unique action to add it to your empire automatically.These will generate Cultureand other benefits for being slotted.
Toreveal more Artifacts,Civ 7players must send an Explorer to stand on top of any Museum or University tile. The unique action Research Artifacts will appear – click this to reveal more Artifacts across the world. You can do this for more Exploration Artifacts and more Antiquity Artifacts after progressing through the Civic Tree.
Todisplay Artifacts, you must build a Museum in a City. These caneach hold 3x Great Works– some Wonders and other unique buildings can also display Great Works, but for the most part, Museums are the most straightforward.You will need at least 5 Cities to display a total of 15x Artifacts.
Final Victory Condition: The World’s Fair
After getting 15x Artifacts displayed throughout your empire, the final Cultural Victory Condition will become available in any city:the World’s Fair Wonder. Build this Wonder to instantly secure a Cultural Victory inCiv 7!
To get an Economic Victory,Civ 7players must generate 500 Railroad Tycoon points. When you reach 150x, 300x, and finally 500x Railroad Tycoon Points, you will unlock Economic Legacy Path milestones.
Railroad Tycoon Points are generated by cities with Factory Resources allocated, at a rate of 1 point for each Factory Resource. You canonly have one Factory Resource of each type in each City, so it’s a good idea to convert Towns to Cities toget Railroad Tycoon Points faster.
Factory Resources inCiv 7are listed in a separate section in the Resource Allocation screen.
Youmust have a Factory in a City to allocate Factory Resourcesthere. Toplace a Factory, you must first build a Rail Stationafter reaching theIndustrializationtech. TheFactory is unlocked when the Mass Productiontech has been researched.
After you produce a Factory, make sure the settlement isconnected to the rest of your empire through Rail Stations. If you have a settlement on an island, you willneed to construct a Portin that settlement in addition to a Rail Station.
LikeTreasure Fleets in the Exploration Age, your cities with Factory Resources allocated (that are connected to other settlements with Rail Stations) will generate Railroad Tycoon Points automatically.
Final Victory Condition: World Bank
After getting 500 Railroad Tycoon Points for the Modern Age Economic Legacy Path, you will be faced with a final challenge to get the final Economic Victory:establish a World Bank Office in every Capital City. You will unlock theGreat Banker unitafter completing the Economic Legacy Path.
This unit cantravel to other cities instantly and, on its next turn, build a World Bank Office in that location. After completing the final goal for the Legacy Path, it should only take a handful of turns to secure the Economic Victory inCiv 7.
Military Victory – Ideology
To get a Military Victory,Civ 7players must generate 20 Ideology Points. You can get Ideology Points inCiv 7by conquering Settlements for the first time.
At the 10x, 15x, and finally 20x Ideology Point milestones you will unlock special rewardsand progress the Age. After getting to 20x Points, you willneed to build the Manhattan Project, a unique Wonder for players who have completed the Modern Age Military Legacy Path.
Final Victory Condition: Operation Ivy
After you build the Manhattan Project Wonder,Civ 7Military Victory players mustcomplete Operation Ivy, a special City Project. Upon completion, the game will end and you will have secured aCiv 7Military Victory!
Alternate Domination Victory
Instead of researching Operation Ivy,you can also dominate every other Leader out of the game to get a Military Victory. Though you can wait until the Modern Age to defeat every other player, you can accomplish a Domination Victory as soon as you reach the Exploration Age and are able to access Distant Lands players.
If all other players are eliminated from the game, with no settlements left to retreat back to, the game will end.
Science Victory – Space Race Projects
To get a Science Victory,Civ 7 players must complete the First Staffed Space Flight aftercompleting all three Space Race projects.
After you complete the Launch Sattelite project, you will have completed the Science Legacy Path and are ready to take on the final victory condition:launch the first Staffed Space Flight.
