How To Get Leader Napoleon Free in Civilization 7 (Civ 7)

Unlocking Napoleon Bonaparte in Civilization 7: A Guide to Two Personas

Napoleon Bonaparte, a staple of the Civilization franchise, returns in Civilization 7 (Civ 7), but accessing him requires a few extra steps depending on the persona you desire.

Unlocking Emperor Napoleon:

To unlock the Emperor Napoleon persona, you need a 2K account. Follow these simple steps:

1. Visit portal.2k.com. Log in to your existing account or create a new one.
2. Link your 2K account to your Civ 7 platform via Connections -> Account Overview.

That's it! Emperor Napoleon, a leader specializing in commerce and military strength, is now available. His unique ability, "Empereur des Francais," grants a unique sanction (Continental System), reducing the trade route limit of targeted leaders, imposing significant relationship penalties, and increasing the cost of rejection. He also gains +8 gold per age for each unfriendly or hostile leader. He can reject Endeavors for free.

His agenda, "Napoleonic Code," favors players with the smallest standing army and dislikes those with the largest standing navy.

Unlocking Revolutionary Napoleon:

If the Emperor persona doesn't suit you, unlock the Revolutionary Napoleon by proving your Civilization 6 experience.

1. Follow the steps above to link your 2K account to Civ 7. Crucially, ensure your Civ 6 account is also linked.

You don't need to have played Civ 6 on the same platform as Civ 7.

Revolutionary Napoleon is a cultural/militaristic leader with the "La Grande Armee" ability: +1 movement for all land units, and defeating an enemy unit grants culture equal to 50% of its combat strength.

His agenda, "Culture from Conquest," prefers players with high culture per turn and dislikes those with many alliances.

This completes your guide to unlocking both Napoleon personas in Civilization 7.
