About this page
- Is the disc the same game as the download?
- Yes for the game itself. A disc can be lent, resold or played on another console without signing in, and it usually still installs to the drive. A download never has to be swapped, cannot be lost, and is always to hand — and it is the only option at all on an all-digital Series S. Which matters more is a personal call, not a price one.
- How current are these prices?
- They come from our own collection runs, not from a live lookup while you read, so each one carries the date we last saw it. Anything older than a week is labelled. Open the Microsoft Store page for Sid Meier's Civilization VI for the digital side and its full price history.
