Paradox Interactive, Colossal Order, and Tantalus have announced that Cities: Skylines will be released for the PS4 on August 15. The city management simulation will be available to purchase as a digital download on the PlayStation Store and as a disc release at retail outlets.
Cities: Skylines will make its PlayStation debut with a new “controller-friendly” control scheme, and it’ll come bundled with the After Dark expansion. Paradox’s Niklas Lundstrom shared a bit more about the conversion on the PlayStation Blog:
There’s more to Cities: Skylines, of course, than just zoning districts and placing your roads into a neat grid (or using them to spell out your name). Want to build the all-green-energy and self-sustaining town of the future? Have a diabolical plan to build a dam across the river and funnel wastewater into your tourism district? We’ve even seen an entire town of services and infrastructure built around just one house! Cities: Skylines is a game all about setting up plans and policies to create a metropolis that’s uniquely your own, and we can’t wait to see what PlayStation players are capable of.
The first trailer for the “PlayStation 4 Edition” of Cities: Skylines has been embedded above.
