Fans of Cities Skylines 2 have had to wait far too long for this… and yet they are still disappointed again

Cities Skylines 2 was anything but convincing when it was released last fall. Previously, the team had v or technical problems warnedbut this could do little to change the reaction of the fan community. In our test A similarly skeptical picture emerged of the city building simulation from Colossal Order.

Instead of that Core problems To solve the game, in the eyes of many fans, a half-baked, paid update is thrown onto the market. PCGamesN points out that on the day of the DLC's release, there were more negative Steam reviews posted for the title since at least the end of February. However, it seems even more serious other update to be.

Are there mods for Cities Skylines 2?

The problem: The technical difficulties that once plagued the start of the game are also evident around the mods. Sometimes mods for the game are not installed correctly, cannot be selected or the entire system collapses.

The reaction from fans is, unsurprisingly, extremely negative. This means that the reputation of the sequel will continue to be suboptimal in spring 2024. It is unclear when exactly Cities Skylines 2 will be released (buy now / €42.99 ) for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S comes onto the market. The sometimes toxic reaction of the fan community has the boss of the studio discussed in January.
