Cities: Skylines Remastered coming to PS5 and Xbox Series X/S next week
Acclaimed city builder Cities: Skylines is getting an enhanced edition for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S on 15th February, and owners of the previous-gen versions can upgrade for free.
Cities: Skylines Remastered, as the new version is known, promises a broad range of improvements over the existing console release, starting with increased graphical performance – which is as specific as publisher Paradox Interactive is being on that front right now.
Other improvements include the ability for players to build bigger cities thanks to a bump in the buildable tile limit, which rises from 9 in the current console release to 25.
Elsewhere, there’s a new map editor, as well as a quick selection tool, a distance indicator, a new environmental controls panel – used to adjust rain, fog, time of day, and environment colour – plus precision placement and updated snapping options.
