Cities: Skylines gets Snowfall expansion

Paradox Interactive today announced the newest expansion to Cities: Skylines, the city-builder from Colossal Order. The new expansion is titled “Snowfall” and will be available later this year.

Snowfall will allow players to expand and grow their cities using new transportation options while challenging them to meet citizens’ needs using several new in-game tools. All of these new inclusions will revolve around the expansion’s central feature: an in-game weather system.

Cosmetic weather, composed of rain and fog, will be added as part of a free update, along with other features to be announced soon. Players who own Snowfall will get to face new challenges such as ensuring that their city infrastructure can handle seasonal heating demands – and, when the snow starts falling, that the roads can stay clear. New snowplow services will be required, while new all-weather trams and expanded public transit options can help residents and visitors alike get around town – and visit the new winter parks and landmarks available in Snowfall.

The release window and pricing information for the Snowfall expansion will be confirmed later.

Cities: Skylines was released for PC last year, and an Xbox One version is planned.
