Cities: Skylines ‘Snowfall’ expansion coming later this year

Paradox has announced Cities: Skylines Snowfall, a brand new expansion heading to the hit city-builder later this year.

Snowfall introduces a brand new ‘Winter’ map that challenges players to keep a grip on the icy weather, and ensure that traffic keeps moving through the city streets as snow starts to fall.

Players will be able to build a snow plough depot to help keep the roads from clogging up with snow, and build a tram network that is capable of running through the wintry weather. Rain and fog will also be introduced to existing maps.

Snowfall – New features:

• Now is the Winter of This Content: Rain and fog for existing maps, plus a new “Winter” map theme with snow and all of its challenges
• The Streetcars You Desire: Expanded public transportation options, including easier management of existing lines – and Trams, a new system demanded by fans
• World Warmth, Too: Cold weather increases demands for electricity, unless new water-based heat systems are in place
• Plowers to the People: Build a snowplow depot to keep traffic flowing during winter weather, and employ new road maintenance systems to keep your streets in shape
• New Chirps: #yeahthereare

Snowfall is the second major expansion for Cities: Skylines, following on from last year’s ‘After Dark’ expansion.

A price and release date have yet to be announced.
