Cities: Scalins 2 have been riding somewhat since the launch of 2023. It cannot be denied that in almost two years since its arrival, a great order has made some improvement in the launch blood, but it seems that the team is constantly disputes with different issues.
In the original roadmap after the launch, which went to the second quarter of 2024, an asset pack and an extension were sporadic. Asset Pack, beach properties, which was launched in the early 2024, but it was so thread beer and received badly that a month later, a great order and publisher Paradox issued an apology, lifted the refund and gave it free.
The first expansion, from the bridge and the ports, was expected to appear within a few months of the beach properties, but that never happened. In September 2024, the team announced that it was delaying the extension to improve the base game. Finally, he found a release window of the second quarter of 2025. So around now. Well, that will not happen.
“We have spent the past five months working hard for the DLC of bridges and ports and our expected release.” City: Skyline 2 Forum Today, after reviewing the contents and sharing it with our initial access group, we have received permanent feedback: the bridge is very interesting, and the port works well, but there are aspects of this extension that are not as polished as they can. “
With this, the extension has been pushed back. “In the meantime, we are evaluating our initial access group’s opinion and maping when we want to improve at the beginning of the expansion – which we are now expecting in this year’s Q4.”
However, it feels a little contradictory, and the lack of details has paused me. “Polish” is rapidly used as a catch all -term, when it technically suggests that only very minor changes are needed. An experienced developer is difficult to imagine that four to six months is needed to polish extension.
The tremendous order also mentions that he wants to “increase the depth”, which once again, does not feel like a simple Polish. And the share of the “thing we want to improve” shows that matters are not clear at all.
Everyone said, the delay looks like a good idea. City: Sciles 2 issues started because great order and Paradox released it very quickly. It was badly improved, full of insects and basic features. The players felt as if they were bought in the son, and in this period of early access, it is very common, the city: Skyline 2 was sold as a ready game.
I still hope that the city: Skyllines 2 will turn into a game that I expected. The Asset Editor will definitely help it, and open a lot of possibilities for moods – which was important for the success of the first game. But it seems still far away.
The good news is that the free update that was expected to extend with the extension is still coming soon. It will arrive on June 11, “with a little material that gives a slight sneak peek into the extension.”
