Break out the planning maps as Cities Skylines II is coming in October
Paradox Interactive and developer Colossal Order have revealed a new trailer for Cities Skyline II, which not only showed off some of the games visuals, mechanics and scale, but also revealed that the game would be landing on all its announced platforms on October 24th. Check it out.
In Cities: Skylines II, players build detailed cities at an epic scale. Intricate economic systems present players with choices that have ripple effects across the city. Dynamic maps set in various biomes present both challenges and opportunities for city builders.
High-fidelity visuals showcase the beauty of cities like never before, from a humble city block to an iconic city skyline. For the first time ever, each citizen has their own individual life, including occupation, household, relationships and more, making cities feel alive. Players can now follow how their choices affect citizens’ lives, adding weight and immediate impact to every strategic decision.
The first challenge that players will face is in selecting their map, sure lots of water might look nice, but that won’t leave a lot of land and the inverse is true. Once the map has been selected, then its time for the city to grow and it is here that the games vast interconnected systems will start to appear. Building roads, assigning regions and even laying pipes, all are important to ensure your city can grow.
The game is coming to PC, Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 on October 24th.
