Cities: Skylines owners will receive free content shortly after release, developer Colossal Order has revealed.
CEO Mariina Hallikainen said the addition of free tunnels and European buildings will be put into development as soon as the game launches.
"Unfortunately there's no time frame [for DLC] at this point, because we're still working on the game for release," she told Digital Spy.
"Right after that, we will start work on the tunnels. It will happen relatively soon after the release, because we will fully focus on that."
European buildings - which will be wall-to-wall city blocks - will "take a little while" longer due to them requiring "a lot of assets".
Hallikainen said it's a game "we feel very comfortable expanding" and will follow the same model at Crusader Kings 2 when it comes to post-release content, with a plan to release a combination of "bigger expansions, free content and smaller DLCs".
BLG writes, "Cities: Skylines II is a very worthy sequel to the popular 2015 city-building that improves upon the original. It could stand to use some quality-of-life updates, performance optimization, and mod support, but don't let that deter you from diving in."
If you enjoyed the last entry and its myriad DLC packs, here's a closer look at the difference between Cities Skylines 1 and 2.
The abundance of dlc is what keeps me from buying these games early , I'll pass. I will wait until a complete edition is available. Love these types of games though.
Well..that means you have to wait for probably 7 years..and even than its not sure there is a complete edition. Even now..8! years after the release of the first game..you have to pay 325€ for the game with all so far released dlc.
I'm fine with that my backlog goes back to snes, your also missing base game is practically free and dlc goes on sale constantly. Cities skyline 1 alone with dlc can be had way way cheaper then what you stated.
Well if you're a console owner you don't need to worry because it's been delayed until at least spring of 24 and they've refunded all console preorders. I was refunded even though I never asked for one which kind of makes me wonder if they can even get cities working properly on console's.
They've also upped the recommended specs for pc
From GameWatcher: "Tetris has come to Cities: Skylines, courtesy of one player's creative use of stop motion and in-game screenshots to put together a short clip that attracted a lot of attention from the city builder's community.
It all unfolds against a rather flowery background, reminiscent of a welcoming park or garden in which you can relax. Tetris pieces leave their box at the top of a green rectangular arena, gently making their way to the bottom. When they form a complete row, they flash before disappearing."
