Previously, terraforming works by digging up land and placing them back. This means you can now have perfectly aligned palm trees for your avenues.ġ4 new tree assets, created by MrMaison, will be included in the free update.Īlso, you can now sell or buy soil. This is done by going to the landscaping tool, selecting a tree you want to plop, and placing them on the road segment. Other public transport services, in particular, that ones with a connection to outside of the city, has been improved so that they are less frequent but can carry more passengers.Īlso, the road avenues with trees can now have their trees customised. The update adds improvements to AI aeroplanes, which will fix issues where planes just circle above an airport endlessly. The reveal of Airports comes a week after the announcement of VR spin-off Cities: VR, from a different developer.In addition, there’s a new free update available for all players. It is, at least, an excellent juggernaut, and lives on both our best management games and building games lists. As with all Cities: Skylines DLC, it makes me wonder whether Colossal Order are satisfied, having released nothing but DLC for the past six years, or whether Skylines' juggernaut success has imprisoned them. As a one-time frequent traveller, I will not stand for any airport that isn't linked to its nearby city by rail.Ĭities: Skylines Airports will launch next year on January 25th and will cost $13. Importantly, you can also link your airport up with other forms of public transport, letting your citizens ride bus and railway links to catch their flight. You set the ticket prices, and you'll unlock new airport buildings to construct depending on the overall success of the airport.
The DLC lets you construct modular airport buildings, clicking terminals together and connecting buildings via "concourse networks" according to the Paradox website. Cities: Skylines takes another step in that direction with its next DLC, which will let you construct sprawling airports when it takes flight in January. I always liked the idea that a citybuilder eventually comes to contain several other management games within it.
