Cities Skylines: Snowfall Gets First Gameplay Video

Colossal Order and Paradox Interactive have been releasing an avalanche of information for their upcoming Cities: Skylines expansion, Cities Skylines: Snowfall. Unless you’ve been living under a rock that’s devoid of simulated city/traffic management game information, you’ve probably heard of Cities: Skylines — the most spectacular city management game since Sim City 4.

Coming February 18th, Cities Skylines: Snowfall is bringing the winter winds to your quaint little towns and mega metropolises. As we’ve mentioned before, CK:S will also have a pretty large patch for the game that is available for all players; here are a few of the additions (for free).

– New Chirps from everyone’s favorite in-game social media avatar
