Napoleon Bonaparte, a staple of the *Civilization* franchise, returns in *Civilization 7* (*Civ 7*), but unlocking him requires a few extra steps. There are actually two versions of Napoleon available.
The Emperor Napoleon persona is unlocked by creating (or linking) a 2K account. Here's how:
That's it! The Emperor Napoleon excels in commerce and military strength, boasting the unique ability "Empereur des Francais": "Gain a Unique Sanction, Continental System, which reduces the Trade Route limit of the targeted Leader to all other Leaders by 1, causes a massive Relationship penalty, and costs more to reject. +8 Gold per Age for every Leader you are Unfriendly or Hostile with. Can reject Endeavors for free.”
His agenda, "Napoleonic Code," favors players with smaller armies and dislikes those with large navies.
Prefer a different Napoleon? Unlock the Revolutionary Persona by linking your 2K account, ensuring your Civ 6 and Civ 7 accounts are connected. This works regardless of whether you played Civ 6 on the same platform as Civ 7.
The Revolutionary Napoleon is a cultural/militaristic leader with the ability "La Grande Armee": "+1 Movement for all Land Units. Defeating an enemy Unit provides Culture equal to 50% of its Combat Strength.”
His agenda, "Culture from Conquest," favors players with high Culture Per Turn and dislikes those with many alliances.
And there you have it—all the paths to unlocking Napoleon in Civilization 7!
