Ī second expansion pack, Civilization V: Brave New World, was announced on March 15, 2013. It includes features such as religion, espionage, enhanced naval combat and combat AI, as well as nine new civilizations.

Its first expansion pack, Civilization V: Gods & Kings, was released on June 19, 2012, in North America and June 22 internationally. The game features community, modding, and multiplayer elements. A civilization's borders also expand one tile at a time, favoring more productive tiles, and roads now have a maintenance cost, making them much less common. In addition, the maps contain computer-controlled city-states and non-player characters that are available for trade, diplomacy and conquest. The combat system has been overhauled, by removing stacking of military units and enabling cities to defend themselves by firing directly on nearby enemies. Many elements from Civilization IV and its expansion packs have been removed or changed, such as religion and espionage (although these were reintroduced in its subsequent expansions). The game is based on an entirely new game engine with hexagonal tiles instead of the square tiles of earlier games in the series. In Civilization V, the player leads a civilization from prehistoric times into the future on a procedurally generated map, attempting to achieve one of a number of different victory conditions through research, exploration, diplomacy, expansion, economic development, government and military conquest. The game was released on Microsoft Windows on September 21, 2010, on OS X on November 23, 2010, and on Linux on June 10, 2014.
