Cities: Skylines - Plazas and Promenades introduces pedestrian areas, allowing players to create walkable cities and car-free areas around their ideal metropolis. This expansion also brings specialized districts and city service buildings to Cities: Skylines, deepening the city simulator’s management gameplay.

Cities: Skylines - Plazas and Promenades key features: 

**

  • Pedestrian Streets: let your citizens walk freely on pedestrian-only streets! Place them in your city like any other road and create new green city centers free of most vehicles and pollution.

  • Pedestrian Areas and New Policies: activate three area-specific policies for your city, including Slow Driving: all roads in the pedestrian area, except highways, get a speed limit of 20 km/hour. Sugar Ban: increases the average lifespan of citizens in the pedestrian area but decreases their happiness. Street Music: increases happiness and noise pollution in pedestrian commercial areas.

  • District Specialization: we added 3 new district specializations: offices, high-density residential areas, and high-density commercial areas. Setting a specialization on a district affects all area squares in that district that will spawn buildings with a different visual appearance and a gameplay effect. Each specialization features 24 new modern wall-to-wall buildings!

  • City Service Buildings: service buildings are important, but how about awesome-looking service buildings? Connect them to pedestrian areas by matching their visual style and provide services that contribute to good happiness values.

Accompanying the release of Plazas and Promenades is a free update, two content creator packs, and two radio stations.

**

  • “Mid-Century Modern” by Rev0 grants players sleek and stylish residential growable buildings, inspired by the iconic American design movement. 

  • “Seaside Resorts” by Gèze brings the spirit of the classic seaside resort towns, boulevards, and piers that flourished in 19th century America to Cities: Skylines.

**Both Content Creator Packs are available for 5.99 USD / 4.79 GBP / 5.99 EUR.

Finally, the release also brings fresh tunes for aspiring city planners with two radio packs: Paradise Radio and Shoreline Radio.
