from Thilo Bayer
At the Xbox Game Show, the Colossal Order’s Skylines 2 cities were featured in the game’s trailer and showered with praise for the technology on display. City-Builder will launch in October.

A few days after the final DLC for Cities Skylines 1, developer Colossal Order paved the way for Skylines 2. Already on October 24th. Here we are, the base game is 50 euros pre order.

Youtubers are excited

The Youtube clip of the gameplay evokes various delightful reactions. The commenter with the most likes at the moment is happy about the trailer stating that the gameplay was completely “in-game”. It would be the perfect answer to post-announcement speculation. It’s clear that the overall aesthetic of the game gets a “massive” improvement over Cities Skylines I”. The current gap between “workshop-heavy custom asset builds and full-vanilla builds” should be bridged a bit with this.

Ein anderer User schreibt: “Die Maßstabsverbesserung ist wahnsinnig, in Skylines 1 fuhlen sich hohe Gebäude nicht wirklich groß an, aber der Maßstab in Syklines 2 mit der Tatsache, dass man seine Stadt im Gegensatz zu Sim City zum Beispiel massiv erweitern kann, ist so good”. A third user wrote: “For the first time in ages, I’m watching a new trailer for a game and I’m really convinced the game is going to be amazing. Actual gameplay and amazing features months before release – this shows other game makers how to do it!”.
