Greater than another citybuilder, Cities: Skylines requires deep engagement with its site visitors simulation. You may spend an limitless variety of (very glad) hours tweaking your highway community to attempt to repair site visitors jams. The following Cities: Skylines growth would possibly provide an alternate, nonetheless. The Plazas & Promenades DLC, introduced as we speak, will will let you create pedestrian streets and zones the place vehicles dare not tread. Discover the primary trailer beneath.
I assumed this DLC would simply be about creating parks and leisure areas, however the concept that I may flip complete streets into automotive free zones is enormously interesting. Principally as a result of I want extra cities and cities would comply with the instance and do the identical in the true world.
Based on the press launch, pedestrian streets might be freed from “most autos”, and you’ll enact three new zone-specific insurance policies in your cities. These are Gradual Driving, which give roads within the pedestrian zone a 20mph velocity restrict; Road Music, which will increase happiness but in addition noise air pollution in pedestrian business zones; and Sugar Ban, which will increase peep lifespan however decreases happiness. I am undecided that final one matches with the others, however then, I do not personal a automotive however I do drink loads of fizzy drinks, so maybe I am biased.
You may additionally be capable of specialise districts as workplaces, high-density residential or high-density business zones, with every together with 24 new buildings. Lastly, there are newly enticing Metropolis Service Buildings. Alongside the Plazas and Promenades DLC, Paradox additionally introduced two new content material creator packs that includes mid-century fashionable buildings by REVO and seaside resort buildings from Gèze.
There is no launch date for the DLC but however will probably be “accessible quickly” and can value $15/£13/€15 when it’s. For now, you may discover extra screenshots on Steam.
