This article was originally published on link to post

Paradox Interactive has announced Cities: Skylines – Expanded Edition, a Nintendo Switch 2 port of Colossal Order’s hit 2015 city-builder. While it’s great to see Cities: Skylines make its way to a new platform, this announcement also serves as a reminder that we have no idea when the long-awaited console ports of Cities: Skylines 2 will come out.

Cities: Skylines – Expanded Edition was developed by Tantalus Media, the team behind The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword’s Switch port. It’ll cost $49, include 10 expansions, expand the buildable area to 25 tiles, support keyboard and mouse, and add a map editor, plus better precision placement and environmental controls. Players can choose between a 30fps mode that focuses on visual quality or a performance mode targeting 60fps.

The Switch 2 port launches on October 28 and will be available at a 70% discount to those who already own the Switch 1 version. Holiday Getaways, Mansions & Manors, and Blueprint Beasts Radio content creator packs will be released for the PC, PS4, and Xbox One versions of the game on the same day.
