Unlocking Napoleon:
Getting Napoleon is surprisingly straightforward. No in-game purchases or extensive playtime are required. Simply register a 2K account and link it to your Civilization VII game platform.

Once linked, log into your 2K account, navigate to the "Connections" section, and finalize the platform connection. That's it for the standard Napoleon!
Unlocking Revolutionary Napoleon:
This version presents a slightly greater challenge. Unlike standard Napoleon, simply linking accounts isn't sufficient.

To unlock Revolutionary Napoleon, you must own Civilization VI. Log in to your 2K account in both Civilization VI and VII—ensuring they are the same account—to trigger the reward. Civilization VII will recognize your Civilization VI ownership and grant you the French Revolutionary skin for Napoleon.
In short, while obtaining the Emperor Napoleon is simple, securing the Revolutionary version requires owning Civilization VI and linking the same 2K account across both games.
