Cities: Skylines’ first expansion pack ‘After Dark’ will release worldwide on September 24, Paradox Interactive has announced.
The expansion introduces a brand new day/night cycle to the city-builder, along with new “nighttime city services”. It’ll be available for $14.99, although a UK price has yet to be confirmed.
According to Paradox, cities will be filled with less traffic during night, allowing players to “identify problem areas in the road network” and create and modify roads while it’s quiet.
“This ebb and flow of traffic will make the city feel more alive and add a whole new element of trying to cater for both the quiet times and the busiest times,” said lead designer Karoliina Korppoo. “New options for public transportation allow you to choose if the lines are active during the day, night or both. Creating bus lines that serve the needs of citizens only during the night, when their destinations are different from the day, is possible and a very good strategy.”
Cities: Skylines launched on PC back in March, and went on to sell over 1 million copies within its first month. An Xbox One version is currently in development.
