A Chaotic Launch for Cities Skylines 2

The initial launch of Cities: Skylines 2 was marred by criticism regarding poor performance and missing features. Paradox Interactive and Colossal Order quickly faced player frustration. In an attempt to remedy this situation, Colossal Order promised to focus on free updates rather than rushing out paid DLC. In order to regain the community's trust.

The “Detailer's Patch” introduces many improvements and additions to the game, including:

  • Developable roundabouts And 8 new roundabout decorations
  • New investment tools for trees, with an age selector
  • Surface tools with different textures: concrete, grass, paving stones, sand, and tiles
  • 27 new variations of service buildingsincluding a small water tower, a small medical clinic, and an urban fire station
  • New educational buildingspolice, and public transport
  • 5 new urban parks And 6 new car parks
  • 4 new vehicles : a North American garbage truck. A North American snowplow, a North American passenger train, and a European freight locomotive

Colossal Order seems to be delivering on its promises with this update, showing its commitment to improving the base of the game before offering additional paid content. The diversity and quantity of new elements added demonstrate a significant effort to meet the expectations of players.

Although the date of the next update has not been specified, it is expected to be available after a summer break in July. Players can therefore expect new improvements and content in August. Thus continuing Colossal Order's effort to achieve the expected quality.
