Sid Meier’s Civilization 6 on Apple iOS devices offers a good chunk of the fun DLC that has been available to console and PC players for some time, but Civ 6 mobile developer Aspyr is doing players one better through the holiday season. On various upcoming days, players can pick up six DLC packs for Civilization 6 on iOS for free.

Aspyr announced both their holiday giveaway and the launch windows of each free DLC pack on December 17, 2019 in a press release. Starting on December 18, 2019 and running through January 1, 2020, players will be able to get the DLC packs for free download in various launch windows. Each of the DLC packs contain a new nation and leader, as well as a scenario pack to play with them. Unfortunately, the Gathering Storm expansion still isn’t a part of the fun just yet, but each of the packs is normally $4.99 a piece, so getting them all for free would be about a $38 bargain if you download them all.

With the holiday giveaway, mobile players will be able to get a lot of Civ 6 content for free.

      How is this game? Something you can easily play on the phone itself without any dongles or anything?

        Dongles for what?

        I've only played on iPad and it runs well, but not full resolution so it looks kinda fuzzy.

        The UI is clunky and messy and I don't get along with it. Even with a keyboard it's fussy.

        The game itself is fine. Not my fave Civ by far.

      These are the same DLCs they gave away last year for Christmas. Really nice offer by Aspyr.

      I'm hoping the expansion goes on sale for Christmas this year.
