The Humble Bundle currently has a sale for all the big 2K games.
Most interesting for us are obviously Civ6, but as strategy gamers here we probably also fancy all the XCOM titles as well as Railroad Tycoon titles. This bundle also contains other titles of extremely high quality, e.g. the Bioshock collection or Mafia collection.
To get Civ6 and all the other titles you need to pay at least 15.98€.

Explorminate, a website dedicated to 4X, strategy and tactic games, has published a list of interesting games currently in development.
Most of these games are also interesting for us Civ-fanatics, and have been mentioned here on CFC before.
The list:
Ara – History Untold might be the most obvious Civ contender, as it’s a historical turn-based 4X game, but also Revival: Recolonization is interesting, as it is basically a post-apocalyptic Civ.
For more details please watch the video or read the article here.
