Whilst claiming to be equally as epic as its PC cousin, the console version will be tailor-made for the host hardware, with a brand new control scheme and possibly some significant interface changes.
16 civilizations will be on offer, and both voice and video chat are promised for the online multiplayer.
"Civilization Revolution is the game I've always wanted to make," Meier stated.
"We are excited to take advantage of the power of next generation consoles and the ingenuity of handhelds, to create a great and unique strategy game for newcomers to the series, as well as the millions of fans around the world who enjoy Civilization on the PC."
