Cities: Skylines II Announced for PC and Consoles

Publisher Paradox Interactive and developer Colossal Order have announced the next Cities: Skylines game, Cities: Skylines II. The game will launch sometime in 2023 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC via Steam and Xbox Game Pass. An announcement trailer was also released. Cities: Skylines II will offer “a deep simulation and a living economy,” and will “challenge your decision-making skills and allow you to build the cities of your dreams.”

Colossal Order CEO Mariina Hallikainen commented on the game’s announcement in a press release, saying:

“Cities: Skylines reset the bar for city-building games when it launched eight years ago, and we are incredibly proud of its impact. We built a thriving community around Cities and introduced many to city building for the first time. Now, we’ve brought the years of experience we’ve gained to take a new step forward in the city builder genre, again, for our community and new players.”

Paradox Interactive CEO Frederik Wesker:

“The Cities brand has been an important part of Paradox’s catalog of games for over a decade. Cities: Skylines is a profound success, selling millions of copies, welcoming more than 5.5 million new players just last year, and setting the foundation for Cities: Skylines II. With unprecedented amounts of customization and player control, Cities: Skylines II will continue to push boundaries for the city-building franchise.”
