At Gamescom 2015, Paradox have announced the first expansion for Cities: Skylines. It will feature a much requested day & night cycle, new specialization, service and transportation options: Will you construct a bustling city that lives and breathes at night or will your city succumb to the perils and misadventures of night life? You’re only limited by your imagination, so take control. The sky is the limit! Find out what life is like in the city when the sun goes down! Main features Day and Night Cycle: Day and night changes in the city and affects citizen schedules. Traffic is visibly slower at night and some zoned areas do not work with full efficiency, further easing the traffic. Service vehicles move around as usual. A free update for all users. Leisure specialization: Commercial areas can specialize in leisure activities. Leisure areas are especially active during the night, but work like regular commercial areas during the day. Beach specialization: Commercial areas such as beach bars and restaurants, small marina and fishing tours on the shoreline can specialize in beach activities. Expanded City Services: Criminals will now be taken to Prison from Police buildings. Taxi service will help citizens and tourists travel around the city. Cargo hubs are harbors that accept cargo trains straight to the terminal. International airport is a huge airport, allowing much more traffic than the previous airport. It has a metro station attached to it. Bus terminal allows citizens to transfer to other bus lines in the terminal building. New transportation options: Bikes and dedicated bike lanes and bike ways let citizens opt for a faster alternative to walking. Bus lanes can be used to help the public transportation run smoother. System Requirements: Requires Cities: Skylines Base Game. Release: September 24th 2015 Price: $14.99 [More info] Full source: https://www.paradoxplaza.com/cities-skylines-after-dark

Indie Developer Crowbox in Germany, has promised a new and interesting take on the city building experience. Welcome the game EndCiv. "EndCiv is a survival city building game with high-quality 3D graphics. The world has been destroyed, and you are tasked with re-civilizing the wastelands. Resources for survival must be collected permanently to keep people alive. Energy production is an important task which is directly connected to the simulated weather of daytime, rain and wind. You will also experience that the wastelands are coming to life at night." With dynamic weather, and manageable resorces EndCiv offers a new take on the ideas of city planning. But the developers need your help, after a failed indegogo campaign it is not certain of the future for the game. Spreading awareness of the game would be a wonderful thing, as I know some of you might find interest.
