Cities: Skylines is, without doubt, one of the most in-depth city builders on the market. But it’s now time for the power of the new-gen consoles to push opportunities on like never before, with Cities: Skylines – Remastered.Â
Becoming available for the first time on current gen consoles – Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 – Cities: Skylines – Remastered is an upgraded version of the old classic, allowing players to build the city of their dreams, working through road networks, bus lines and parks. Whether you decide to build a residential haven, a commercial masterpiece or embark on a new industrial revolution – or combine the three – Cities: Skylines – Remastered will allow for it.
That’s always been the case, but with the Remastered edition they’ll be able to create larger cities, will be able to place structures freely and will find graphical improvements to help. Further still, Cities: Skylines – Remastered adds in some twenty-five buildable tiles and additional player tools too.Â
In all, the upgrades included in Cities: Skylines – Remastered sit as…
- 25 buildable tiles – that’s 16 additional tiles from Cities: Skylines on Xbox One and PlayStation®4!
- Quick selection tool
- UX Improvements, such as precision placements, distance indicator and updated snapping options
- New environmental controls panel allowing players to adjust time of day, rain, fog, and environment colouring
- Map editorÂ
