This is a short overview of the purchasable versions of Civilization V and its downloadable content (DLC).
Up to date as of December 14th, 2013.
Versions
Civillization V was initially released in three different versions. A normal version, a digital deluxe edition, and one special edition (not as download, only in shops).
The normal version included only the game, whereas the digital deluxe edition came with the Babylon DLC, a digital artbook, and the ingame soundtrack as another separate download (23 songs).
The special edition came with a CD for the game, a real artbook, two soundtrack CDs and five tin figures. Approaching blocks download free.
These versions, including the Game Of The Year versions (see below) are available for PC and Mac. Civilization V is also part of SteamPlay, so if a customer purchases the PC version, he will also be able to download the Mac version. However, if a user chooses to purchase the Mac version through SteamPlay, Aspyr (who develop the Mac version of Civilization V) receive none of the revenue.
All versions, no matter if digital or bought as DVD in a shop, are bound to the digital distribution platform Steam (Steam article on wikipedia).
The only exception is the the “Campaign edition”, which is a Mac version and only available via Apples AppStore. This edition lacks multiplayer support and does not support achievements.
Besides the several DLC packs (listed below), two addons, named “Gods & Kings” and “Brave New World” have been released (the former on June 19th/21st 2012, the latter July 9th, 2013). The addon “Gods & Kings” does only include Spain from the DLC content, and no other civs, scenarios or other things released as DLC.
All the DLC packs are compatible with Gods & Kings and Brave New World.
Scenarios have not been updated to include the respective addon rules though.

DLC – miscellaneous questions
What happens with my DLC if i format my HDD, buy a new computer, etc.? Do I have to save it somewhere?
No, it’s not necessary to save the DLC. The DLC is bound to your Steam account, and will be automatically redownloaded after a new installation.
Does the DLC work in multiplayer?
It is possible to use the DLC civilizations in multiplayer, but only if all players own these civilizations.
The maps and mappacks cannot be used in multiplayer games.
Are DLC packs also available for Mac?
Yes, DLC can also be purchased for the Mac versions, but is not as soon available as for the PC. Patches are normally also delayed for the Mac version.
DLC packs are not available for the already mentioned steamless “Campaign edition”.
The addon “Gods & Kings” is available for Mac, for both the Steam and App store version. Please be aware that both versions are not compatible with each other. If you own the App store version you cannot buy the addon on Steam or vice versa.

Description
The Americas
Although civilization blossomed later in the western hemisphere, the region from Peru in the south to Mexico in the north was just as important as an incubator for the development of ancient cultures. This map spans this rugged area of jungles and highlands.
The Cradle of Civilization map packs are Firaxis-designed maps of real-world locations. You can play random leaders in these settings, or choose leaders appropriate to the history of these areas. The maps can also be opened up in World Builder, where you can even create specific scenarios.
To activate your DLC code open your Steam client and select '+Add a game' from the bottom left of the screen. From the drop down list select 'Activate a Product on Steam' and then enter your code exactly as it is printed. Ensure it is entered in upper case and that you include the dashes also.
If you have not done so already, ensure that you activate and install Civilization V via the code on the back of your manual first. If you do not the DLC code will not work.
