Paradox Interactive revealed on the official forum that Cities: Skylines 2 will be 12 times larger than Cities: Skylines, with a total space requirement of 50 GB compared to 4 GB for the previous version.
Paradox also reveals that the 50GB variant will not be available for pre-loading, so players will have to wait for the official launch to install and play. It is important to note that in the minimum and recommended Steam configurations, a requirement of 60GB of disk space is mentioned – which is slightly higher than what was mentioned in the forum.
Paradox Mods were also mentioned in the post, which will allow you to add community-created components within the game, and in addition to the Steam Workshop, people will be able to add their own creations based on the platform’s terms. It’s worth noting that this will increase the size of the game even more, so keep some extra space.
Cities: Skylines 2 will be released on October 24 for PC via Steam and Microsoft, with a console-only release in 2024. The developers stated that the game Did not reach the desired performance goal The launch will take place because it is the best way forward, but improvements will be made over the next few months.
