Gamers can add Julius Caesar to Civilization 6 for free, but they need to follow some steps first.

In order to receive this offer, players have to link their 2K account to the platform that they're using to play the game. Those who don't have a 2K account can create one on the official 2K website.

Gamers must access the Connections section in the Account tab to link their 2K account to the platforms on which they play Civilization 6.

Alternatively, fans can also do this the other way around by directly connecting their account on their preferred platforms to their 2K account by logging in directly from the in-game menu. To do this, players must enter Civilization 6, and then press the "my2K" button on the bottom right corner of the screen to log in.

Julius Caesar counts as his own DLC pack, so as long as players own the Civilization 6 base game, they'll be able to play as him. He leads the Roman Empire just like Trajan, one of the first leaders in Civ 6 .

The Julius Caesar DLC pack will be automatically attributed to the player's account as soon as it's been linked. So, the only thing that gamers need to do is open Civilization 6 or restart it if they had already launched it before linking their platform to their 2K account.

Players can then set up a Civilization 6 game to check if he's been added to the leader's pool. If he doesn't appear among the other leaders, then gamers must return to the main title screen and enable the "DLC: Julius Caesar" option in the Additional Content tab.

Julius Caesar is a leader that's definitely worth trying out; he has the unique Veni, Vidi, Vici leader ability, which allows him to make considerable amounts of Gold conquering cities and defeating Barbarian Outposts.
