Many of us are starting to get tired of the snow at this time of the year. This is not true for the team behind the hit city-building game Cities: Skylines. In the games second expansion, the players cities will experience winter for the first time. The falling snow will turn your city into a beautiful winter landscape. You will be able to place ice-rinks, build a fleet of snowplows to keep the roads clear and deal with increasing electricity demand. The expansion also adds trams. Making it even easier to get your cims around town. The release date for the expansion is not yet know but it is said to be coming soon.
In addition to the expansion there is also a free update coming to coincide with it. This update will feature rain and fog as well as some other features to be announced soon. This fits the theme of free DLC and paid expansions for this game.
“Snowfall will include:
Now is the Winter of This Content: Rain and fog for existing maps, plus a new “Winter” map theme with snow and all of its challenges
The Streetcars You Desire: Expanded public transportation options, including easier management of existing lines – and Trams, a new system demanded by fans
World Warmth, Too: Cold weather increases demands for electricity, unless new water-based heat systems are in place
Plowers to the People: Build a snowplow depot to keep traffic flowing during winter weather, and employ new road maintenance systems to keep your streets in shape
New Chirps: #yeahthereare”
