Cities: Skylines 2 release date and platforms
Cities: Skylines 2 was released on October 24, 2023, on Xbox Series X|S, PS5, and PC. The release date was confirmed in a pre-order trailer that aired during the Xbox Games Showcase in June 2023.
Cities: Skylines 2 trailers
Before the game's release, the below trailer was the best insight into in-game action we had, with it detailing the game's climates and seasons. "Temperature and the amount of rain or sun affect citizens’ behavior when they are deciding if they want to use a park or indoor leisure activities", Colossal Order said in this trailer. "Temperature also realistically affects the city’s energy consumption with hot weather increasing the energy consumption as the city needs air conditioning to keep cool." The new climate feature paved the way for natural disasters, which were previously only available in a DLC. Check out the trailer in full below. However, Cities: Skylines 2 had lots of trailers and dev diaries prior to this which gave great insight into the game. You’ll find all of these on the official Cities: Skylines YouTube channel.
Cities: Skylines 2 gameplay
Cities: Skylines 2 offers a “deep simulation and a living economy”, according to the game's Steam page. “[That’ll] challenge your decision-making skills and allow you to build the cities of your dreams”, much like the first city-building game. The game allows you to complete fully realized transport and economy systems and have more modding and customization options, including creating trade routes at your city limits. There's a complex AI pathfinding system that will give more realism to how citizens navigate your city and randomly generated natural disasters courtesy of the simulation title's realistic climate and season features. There are also reforms to road systems, as vehicles will now use all lanes, preventing needless traffic, while there will also be varying levels of danger when navigating the roads. Delivery trucks and citizens will play it safe, while emergency vehicles are more likely to speed or do dangerous U-turns in traffic.
