How To Build A Nuke in Civilization 6

Nuclear weapons are one of the most powerful tools in Civilization 6, allowing you to strike fear into your opponents and dominate the late-game battlefield. This guide will walk you through the complete process of building your first nuke, from researching the necessary technologies to collecting resources and finally constructing the weapon itself.

Step 1: Research Nuclear Vision

The first step to building a nuke is researching Nuclear Vision. Open the tech tree located in the top left corner of your screen and search for Nuclear Vision. This technology is essential because it unlocks both the Manhattan Project and the Nuclear Device, which are required to create nuclear weapons.

Step 2: Start the Manhattan Project

Once you’ve researched Nuclear Vision, navigate to any of your cities and click on the production menu. Scroll down through the available options until you locate the Projects section. You’ll see the Manhattan Project listed here—select it to begin this crucial first phase of nuclear development.

Step 3: Collect 10 Uranium

After the Manhattan Project completes, you’ll need to gather 10 uranium to proceed. Examine your map carefully to locate uranium deposits. Uranium appears as a specific resource icon on the terrain. Once you’ve found uranium, use a builder unit to travel to the deposit and construct a uranium plant. Repeat this process until you’ve collected 10 uranium in total.

Step 4: Build the Nuclear Device

With 10 uranium collected, return to any city and access the production menu once more. Navigate to the Projects section and select “Build Nuclear Device.” This is the final step in the process. Allow the construction to complete, and once finished, you’ll have successfully built your first nuke in Civilization 6.

Summary

Building a nuke in Civilization 6 requires patience and strategy. Remember: research Nuclear Vision first, complete the Manhattan Project in one of your cities, gather 10 uranium by building uranium plants, and finally construct the Nuclear Device in your production queue. Follow these steps, and you’ll have a powerful weapon ready to reshape the course of your game. Good luck, and may your nuclear arsenal bring you victory!
