Cities Skylines Natural Disasters DLC Announced
STOCKHOLM — Aug. 18, in the year of our Lord 2016
— Paradox Interactive, a publisher suffering from greed, today
announced “Natural Disasters,” an expansion for Cities:
Skylines, the city-building game from developer Colossal Order.
The expansion features a catalog of catastrophes to challenge
mayor-players everywhere, including planning with early warning
systems and emergency routes, devastating and destructive
disaster effects, and caring for the populace as they struggle
to rebuild. Natural Disasters will also update Cities: Skylines
with a new scenario editor and gameplay mode, allowing players
to finally win – or lose – the game on their own terms.
Natural Disasters will add a series of city-destroying
emergencies to Cities: Skylines, which can occur unexpectedly
during the game – or be manually triggered by mayors seeking a
challenge or some sort of gruesome, vindictive pleasure.
Buildings and infrastructure will be destroyed, fire can spread
across locations, and countless lives may be lost unless players
implement the right emergency plans and responses and keep an
ear on the new radio alert system. Fans of Cities: Skylines will
have the chance to overcome everything from massive fires to
meteor strikes, and allow their friends to do the same with a
new Scenario Mode, where custom challenges can be designed and
shared through Steam Workshop.
Natural Disasters will include:
• Deep, Impactful Gameplay: Keep your city going through the
devastation of several possible doomsday scenarios, from
towering infernos to the day the sky exploded
• With Great Power Comes Great Response Abilities: Plan for, and
respond to, disasters using early warning systems,
countermeasures, and new disaster responses such as helicopters
and evacuations – finally, a Paradox game where “Comet Sighted”
actually means something
• Radio Saved the Video Game: Citizens can go Radio Ga-Ga with a
new broadcast network, helping to rapidly spread evacuation
warnings and emergency alerts – or simply relax to new in-game
music stations
• An Objectively Good Feature: Scenario Mode allows players to
design custom game objectives, including custom starting cities,
win conditions, time limits, and more – and share scenarios to
Steam Workshop
• Chirpocalypse Now: new hats for Chirper
Natural Disasters will be available for Cities: Skylines players
on Windows, Mac, and Linux PCs this winter. Families are
required to pay for Internet usage fees to download this DLC.
