Works with Vanilla, Rise and Fall and Gathering Storm. No requirements.
I will expand this mod every now and then with the help of feedback.

• This mod adds a Season system with Summer, Autumn, Winter and Spring to the game.
• Positive or negative Effects are applied to units and cities depending on the current Season and its randomized Severity. AI is naturally affected too.
• The map colors and lighting can change with the Seasons: dark and cold in Winter, bright and warm in Summer.
• With Four Seasons, planning of wars and food management is more important.

All aspects of this mod are thoroughly described among Concepts in the Civilopedia. The essential ones are:

• You can set a Season Length between 5 and 25 turns. It is recommended to choose a value that correlates with your game speed (see image above). Note that your Season Length is only used as an approximation, randomized Offsets can delay or speed up a Season change.
• A randomized Severity (1 to 5, higher is worse) dictates how mild or severe Season Effects are. You can choose a Severity Bias (1 to 5) that sets the most likely Severity and thus, the game difficulty.
• The Season Effects include: unit experience, healing, maintenance, movement, food, production and war weariness.
• If you activate the Time of Day based on the Season in the game setup: Deactivate ‘Animated Time of Day’ in the options for the visual effects to work properly.
• After starting, an icon in the top right lists all important information (see images above). The game will always start in Summer with no Effects.

I only provide an English Version of this mod, but others can translate it and I will link it here:
