2K and the company's world-renowned development studio Firaxis Games, in collaboration with Firefly Studios, today announced CivCity: Rome for the PC, a new city building strategy game inspired by the world of Sid Meier's Civilization, is now available at retail stores in North America.

From gladiator fights to chariot races, CivCity: Rome is the most detailed depiction of Roman life ever created, allowing the player to build Rome from a small settlement on the banks of the Tiber River to evolve into the most glorious city in the ancient world.

"It has been a pleasure working with Firaxis and the 'experiment' has been a complete success,” said Simon Bradbury, Lead Designer, Firefly Studios. “CivCity: Rome is a real evolution in city builders."
