About the Game

Raise a city from the ground up and transform it into the thriving metropolis only you can imagine. You've never experienced building on this scale. With deep simulation and a living economy, Cities: Skylines II delivers world-building without limits.

Lay the foundations for your city to begin. Create the roads, infrastructure, and systems that make life possible day to day. It's up to you – all of it.

How your city grows is your call too, but plan strategically. Every decision has an impact. Can you energize local industries while also using trade to boost the economy? What will make residential districts flourish without killing the buzz downtown? How will you meet the needs and desires of citizens while balancing the city's budget?

Your city never rests. Like any living, breathing world, it changes over time. Some changes will be slow and gradual, while others will be sudden and unexpected. So while seasons turn and night follows day, be ready to act when life doesn't go to plan.

The most realistic and detailed city builder ever, Cities: Skylines II pushes your creativity and problem-solving to another level. With beautifully rendered high-resolution graphics, it also inspires you to build the city of your dreams.

AI and intricate economics mean your choices ripple through the fabric of the city. Remember that as you strategize, problem-solve, and react to change, challenges, and opportunities.

Cities: Skylines II lets you create without compromise. Now you can build sky-high and sprawl across the map like never before. Why not? Your city is you.

Your decisions shape each citizen's life path, a chain of events that defines who they are. From love and loss to wealth and wellbeing, follow their life's ups and downs.

Pick a map to set the climate of your city. These are the natural forces you'll negotiate to expand your city amid rising pollution, changeable weather, and seasonal challenges.

This is a great game and it is very fun. Road placement can be a bit annoying sometimes, but it is playable. The graphics are great, however you do need a moderatly good pc. I get around 30-50fps on medium to high

Would not recommend. It is a buggy mess, and on several occasions I have lost hours of gameplay when it spontaneously crashes without warning. A few things have improved since snowflake studios took over, but still, I

Really fun. Loving it. I was very skeptical about Cities: Skylines II due to mixed reviews but decided to give it a go because I enjoyed the first one. I'm glad I did. It runs well. The gameplay is fun.

Almost 3 years have passed since the release and the game still has huge performance issues and not so great mod compatibility. Game is crashing at the slightest mod version inconvenience. I deeply regret spending money

I enjoyed the first game and this one improved on a lot of details. I like the improved industries and the roads. Wish they would add the traffic mod options directly to the game. Overall I think it is still worth
