Review by Matt S. I write this review through the groggy haze that comes when you don't get enough sleep. For the last three nights I've got to bed no earlier than 4am, playing Civilization VI on the Nintendo Switch well later than I had meant to, only to get up a few hours later and play it all day long again.

Civilization Vi Nintendo Switch Review
The Nintendo Switch version of Civilization 6 does not have online multiplayer, publisher 2K has confirmed to Eurogamer. Stanford dropbox.
Multiplayer is limited to local play only.
Alarm bells began to ring when perceptive Reddit user WinneonSword spotted something a little odd with the Civilization 6 Switch eShop listing, which specifically states one to four people can play over 'local wireless'. Similarly, I checked out the British version of the store, which says 'up to four players can cooperate or compete for supremacy via a wireless LAN'. Unlike other upcoming multiplayer games on the store (such as Warframe, Diablo and Pokémon Let's Go), there is no mention of online multiplayer in the Civilization 6 eShop description.
Fans speculated online multiplayer would arrive in a later patch, but Eurogamer has received confirmation from 2K that the game will not have online multiplayer on the Switch, full stop.
'Civilization 6 for Nintendo Switch includes support for local cooperative and competitive multiplayer for up to four players via a Wireless Network,' a 2K spokesperson said via email. 'It will not have online multiplayer.'
This is obviously a blow to fans, many of whom were hoping to play Civilization 6 with friends over the internet. 'If online multiplayer is not added in a day 1 patch, I personally will be hard-pressed to buy the game,' original poster WinneonSword stated. 'The online function has been one of the primary ways I played the game and its predecessors on PC.'

Other players, however, say that the news does not particularly phase them as Civilization games provide a 'solid single-player experience'. Yet it does seem a bit of a shame to limit multiplayer to only local games. Civilization 6 is encouraging us to go back in time to LAN parties, I guess?
