Cities: Skylines 2 for consoles has been delayed

Cities: Skylines 2, developed by Colossal Order and published by Paradox Interactive has been available on PC since October 24, 2023, but it still has yet to release for consoles. When the sequel to the City Builder was announced, it was expected to come to consoles in 2023, but it has continued to get delayed.

The expected release window was pushed to October 2024, but it was announced on Paradox Forum that they are unable to meet the release window. A new release window has not been decided yet.

“We wanted to update you on the console release schedule. Unfortunately, we have not yet met the stability and performance targets we set for the console release. Without a Release Candidate (RC), we are now unable to meet an October release window.

While we are making slow but steady progress, there are still unresolved issues impacting the game in ways that harm the player experience we want to deliver. We expect to receive a new RC, which will undergo a thorough review in August. This evaluation will determine whether we can begin the submission process and provide a solid release date, or if further issues need to be addressed.

We understand this is disappointing, and it’s not what we had hoped for either. However, we are committed to keeping you informed throughout this development process, even if the updates aren’t always what we’d like.”

Cities: Skylines 2 is available to play on PC via Steam for $49.99.
