As I noted before, it's unprecedented in the franchise's history, where full expansion releases have been the norm. It's an interesting move to add some new life to Civilization 6 four years out from release. These updates will include more maps, scenarios, and balance updates. Firaxis is also providing free updates to Civilization 6 between each paid DLC release. None of the releases beyond the Ethiopia Pack are detailed at the moment, though Firaxis is clear how many civilizations, leaders, and gameplay modes players can expect. The New Frontier Pass is currently slated to end in March 2021 with the sixth pack. This pack will include a civilization, a new leader, a new district, and the Secret Societies game mode. The next release is coming in July, focusing on Ethiopia. The screenshots and video also point to new disasters like meteor showers, comets, and forest fires. The pack will include the Maya and Gran civilizations leaders, buildings, and unity for each civ and the new Apocalypse game mode. The first DLC pack in the season pass will be the Maya & Gran Colombia Pack, launching on May 21. The full New Frontier Pass release schedule. These packs offer a new model and background for those leaders, alongside updated agendas and gameplay bonuses.

Anyone who purchases the New Frontier Pass will get Persona Packs for Teddy Roosevelt and Catherine de' Medici. For $39.99, players will get access to all the DLC, which encompasses new civilizations, leaders, and gameplay modes. Instead, 2K Games and Firaxis have announced the New Frontier Pass, a collection of six bi-monthly DLC releases. If anything, fans were likely expecting a move toward the next entry in the franchise in 2021 or 2022. The game was released in 2016, and received the series standard two expansions, Rise and Fall and Gathering Storm, in 20.
