The award-winning city-builder launches later this year on PS4, including its "After Dark" expansion.

Hello, Players and Mayors! The team here at Paradox Interactive is delighted to announce that your demands have now become official city policy: we’re bringing our award-winning city-builder to your favorite console in Cities: Skylines – PlayStation 4 Edition!

At Paradox, strategy and creativity are the core of what we do, and judging from the amount of requests we’ve had to release Cities: Skylines on the PS4, they’re passions shared by this community as well. We’ve been hard at work making sure the roads are smooth and the turbines are tuned, so that everything is ready when you build your first city block — but rest assured, the game is looking and playing great on a controller. When you pull back and watch the sun rise over the bustling city you’ve built from the ground up, it’s going to look truly inspiring on the big screen.

There’s more to Cities: Skylines, of course, than just zoning districts and placing your roads into a neat grid (or using them to spell out your name). Want to build the all-green-energy and self-sustaining town of the future? Have a diabolical plan to build a dam across the river and funnel wastewater into your tourism district? We’ve even seen an entire town of services and infrastructure built around just one house! Cities: Skylines is a game all about setting up plans and policies to create a metropolis that’s uniquely your own, and we can’t wait to see what PlayStation players are capable of.

When the game arrives later this year, you’ll get not only a controller-friendly version of Cities: Skylines, but also the tourism and nightlife features from the After Dark expansion. Your thriving community will need some places to unwind once the sun goes down, after all. Please, though, make sure you put in enough taxis and trains to let them get home safely!

We’ll have more info soon on the launch, and then you’ll be able to find the game in the store of your choice, or download it directly from the PlayStation Store. Until then, brush up on your civic engineering and prepare your campaign speeches — the mayor’s office awaits!

Considering how old news this is, I guess you wanted to remind us of the release?

Anyway, it's a great game, so this is good news for PS4 owners. I wouldn't expect great sales though but ought to be worth the porting effort anyway.

Cities skylines without a mouse..?

Just adds to the list of games coming out for ps4 this month. Plenty of games from indies, to AA to AAA. No summer drought this year and in Japan ps4 got DQ11 aswell.

Easy

ps4 supports mouse and keyboard, but dunno if the game will allow them. Probably not as it will have the console friendly interface. I rather have headtracking support anyway :)

It's not just no mouse, sitting on the couch makes me feel too distant from a game like that . I tried Tropico on ps4 and didn't get on with it. I also tried Tropico on my projector running on PC with keyboard and mouse, didn't like it either. Those games are made to be played behind a desk, although in VR it could work. Dino frontier has a promissing interface, with a couple refinements I could see myself building a city in VR.

I'm playing Fastastic contraption atm with PSVR, and Infini factory on my laptop. It's amazing how quick and easy it is to put things together in VR as opposed to fiddling with Inifini factory. That is, until you cross the motion controllers in front of eachother or in front of the headset and you mess up your construction, some kinks still need working out. I'm looking forward to the day I can build a city in VR!

Got this pre-ordered. Extreamly excited to finally get a chance to play. I hope it does well enough that they come out day and date with any sequals.

Ultimately I would love to see these games move to VR and Motion based gameplay. These city builders and RTS games would be an absolute perfect fit for the technology.

At any rate, I am glad it is coimg, and I am excited to play. I just hope I find enough time, because between PS4 and PSVR I have been hit with a tidal wave of titles in the last month, and I only have so much time. It is a blessing and a curse.

I have on my PC, glad it coming to PS4 . It's far way better the new sim city in my opinion. Or it's the true successor to the old simcity .

Im pumped for it. Downloaded it but haven't had time to sink any time into it, busy month.
