Paradox Interactive, the publisher of Cities: Skylines, has announced that the release of a sequel to their highly successful city-building game is currently in development and will be released in 2023. The announcement was made during a livestream showcase of upcoming games, which also included the reveal of expansions and DLC for Crusader Kings 3 and Europa Universalis 4, as well as a new turn-based strategy game called The Lamplighters League. Here are the details about Cities Skylines 2 release.
The game will allow players to build and develop municipalities, from small villages to bustling metropolis. The game will include fully realized transport and economy systems, a wealth of construction and customization options, and advanced modding capabilities. The game will be available for PlayStation 5, PC, and Xbox Series X. Not surprisingly, it won’t be available on the current-gen consoles because the developers want to make a process with the graphics; that’s only achievable by the power of the new generation.
Cities: Skylines 2 Is Releasing Next Year
Developed by Finland-based Colossal Order, the original Cities: Skylines was a commercial and critical success and quickly became the go-to game for city-building enthusiasts after the disastrous launch of Maxis’ SimCity reboots in 2013. The failure of SimCity ultimately led to the closure of the Maxis studio. Cities: Skylines was also loved by the Twitch streamers, and that was a big shot.
The announcement of Cities: Skylines 2 is exciting news for fans of the original game, who have been eagerly anticipating a sequel. The new game promises to build upon the first game’s success and provide players with even more options for creating and managing their own virtual cities.
With the release of Cities: Skylines 2, Paradox Interactive again demonstrates its commitment to the city-building genre and its dedication to providing players with engaging and immersive gaming experiences. The game will surely be one of the most highly anticipated releases of 2023 and will undoubtedly be a must-play for fans of the genre.
