With Cities Skylines II set to release at the end of October, players were starting to get excited for another go in this expansive city builder, but it seems the planning commission have had doubts on the console versions.
Paradox Interactive, the publisher of the game have announced that the console release, that is Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5, will now release in Autumn 2024. Check out the full statement on why below.
Hello City Building Enthusiasts!
We are sharing an update with you on the upcoming launch of Cities: Skylines II.
We are hard at work preparing the game for our release on October 24th. While doing so, we have realized that we need more time to reach the quality targets we have set for Console. As we want to provide the best experience for our players, we are updating the release window for Xbox and PS5 to Spring 2024.
The additional time allows us to focus on matching the quality and performance across all platforms.
We’ll share more updates on the console release window soon.
As work on optimization continues, we’re also updating the minimum and recommended PC specs.
If you have remaining questions, please find our FAQ here.
In the meantime, we are excited to welcome PC players to build their dream cities on October 24.
Happy Building!
Colossal Order & Paradox Interactive
The PC release is unaffected, meaning it will still release in October 2023 as planned.
