About Cities: SkylinesRead more ▾

The city-builder genre is essentially owned by Cities: Skylines for good reason — no rival has matched its moddability or its sheer traffic-facing depth. This hub compares the original with Cities: Skylines 2 honestly, lays out the DLC catalog so you know which expansions matter, and covers the Workshop and map editor for building (or downloading) a city like the popular Boston map. Since there is famously no multiplayer, the pages here set that expectation straight, then dive into what does matter: sandbox mode, platform differences across PS4/PS5/Xbox/Switch, and the PC system requirements for running a city without grinding to a halt.
