How to Increase Loyalty in Civilization 6

Loyalty is a crucial mechanic in Civilization 6 that determines the stability and happiness of your cities. If your loyalty drops too low, your citizens may become disloyal, threatening the integrity of your empire. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the essential steps to increase and maintain high loyalty in your cities.

Assign a Governor and Build a Monument

The first thing you want to do after establishing a city is to assign a governor and build a monument as soon as possible. These actions should immediately increase the loyalty per turn in your newly founded settlement.

Increase Your Amenity

The next critical step is to increase your amenity. To do this, click on the gear icon on your main city located on the right side of the screen.

Building an Entertainment Complex

Under the districts and buildings section, you’ll see the entertainment complex option. Build this district as it will provide plus one amenity from entertainment. Once constructed, you can further improve the entertainment complex to increase your overall amenity levels.

Viewing Your Loyalty Statistics

To monitor your loyalty progress, you need to know where to check the loyalty stat. Look at the productions panel of your main city, then click on “toggle city details” in the bottom right corner.

Understanding the Loyalty Panel

Once you’ve opened the city details, click on “loyalty and governors” to view your loyalty information. Here you’ll see that increasing amenity is essential for boosting the loyalty and happiness of your citizens. The panel displays two key metrics: your current loyalty (shown as 100 loyalty of 100 possible) and your loyalty per turn, which indicates how quickly your loyalty is increasing or decreasing.

Summary

Increasing loyalty in Civilization 6 is straightforward when you follow these steps: assign a governor and build a monument immediately after founding a city, then focus on increasing your amenity by constructing an entertainment complex. By regularly monitoring your loyalty statistics through the city details panel, you can ensure your cities remain stable and your citizens happy. With these foundational strategies in place, you’ll maintain strong loyalty across your empire and prevent any civil unrest.
