Civ 6 Controller Support
So with the game now coming to XBOX and PS4 would this mean this game would get controller support on PC? Would be great just to slouch on the couch and play this

Do you know if they are dumbing down the game for xbox or ps4 like in Civilization revolution?

Revolution wasn't "dumbed down", it was an entirely different spinoff title. If they're releasing the game as "Civilization 6" I'm pretty sure it's going to be as closely adapted as it can be.

The iOS version is an identical match (per vanilla/expansion) as the PC release. Minus some leader animations and some other fluff type of thing I think. The actual gameplay is EXACTLY the same. I'd imagine if that is how they are doing it on mobile, the XBox/PS versions will be exactly the same as well, and will maybe even include the extra fluff stuff the iOS version didn't get.

Perhaps someone who has played the switch version can comment as well, that is probably the better indicator of the incoming console ports.

Steam has that function already. This is that rare game that requires some tailoring on the back end in order to make it work. On the console version, the controller scheme is so loaded with contextual-specific mappings and menu flow conditions that it takes a good deal of time to learn. Never mind mapping something like that independently, never mind doing it for a UI that doesn't have the controller in mind at all.

Google "steam Civ 6 PS4 controller support".

I tested this several years ago. It wasn't very good back then.

But now I play exclusively on the Switch, with Pro Controller. UI is vastly superior to mouse and keyboard IMO, especially for unit movement.
