The future is now: 5 mods to take Civilization V beyond Earth today

Humans were nothing until civilization rose from its cradle to dominate the world. You got to experience that in Civilization V, and now developer Firaxis Games is working on a sequel that will follow humanity into the future.

Civilization: Beyond Earth is in development now, and it will have gamers exploring, expanding, exploiting, and exterminating on an alien world later this year on the PC. As a sequel to one of gaming’s biggest strategy franchises, I can’t wait to set up my off-world colony and research sci-fi technologies … and I’m not gonna wait.
