► About The Game...
• IF YOU CAN DREAM IT, YOU CAN BUILD IT.
Raise a city from the ground up and transform it into the thriving metropolis only you can imagine. You've never experienced building on this scale. With deep simulation and a living economy, Cities: Skylines II delivers world-building without limits.

Lay the foundations for your city to begin. Create the roads, infrastructure, and systems that make life possible day to day. It's up to you – all of it.

How your city grows is your call too, but plan strategically. Every decision has an impact. Can you energize local industries while also using trade to boost the economy? What will make residential districts flourish without killing the buzz downtown? How will you meet the needs and desires of citizens while balancing the city's budget?

Your city never rests. Like any living, breathing world, it changes over time. Some changes will be slow and gradual, while others will be sudden and unexpected. So while seasons turn and night follows day, be ready to act when life doesn't go to plan.

An ever-expanding community of Builders means more opportunities to build a truly groundbreaking city with mods. They're now more easily available in Cities: Skylines II.

The most realistic and detailed city builder ever, Cities: Skylines II pushes your creativity and problem-solving to another level. With beautifully rendered high-resolution graphics, it also inspires you to build the city of your dreams.

• DEEP SIMULATION
AI and intricate economics mean your choices ripple through the fabric of the city. Remember that as you strategize, problem-solve, and react to change, challenges, and opportunities.

• EPIC SCALE, ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES
Cities: Skylines II lets you create without compromise. Now you can build sky-high and sprawl across the map like never before. Why not? Your city is you.

• CITIES THAT COME ALIVE
Your decisions shape each citizen's life path, a chain of events that defines who they are. From love and loss to wealth and wellbeing, follow their life's ups and downs.

• A DYNAMIC WORLD
Pick a map to set the climate of your city. These are the natural forces you'll negotiate to expand your city amid rising pollution, changeable weather, and seasonal challenges.

I think your city is definitely ready for a metro system. much higher capacity than trams, and prevents waiting on the street. keep the tram, but add a metro too!

I love that even though you constantly have a deficit, your money still keeps going up. There has to be some hidden income that the game isn't showing you.

Props to the "Mustang" doing Mustang things at 0:11
-signed a Mustang owner.

making so many railroad crossings at a railyard is certainly an interesting choice! Irl, most railyards are not actually accessible on foot, to prevent train hopping, theft, and sabotage. Also, the traffic out there is gonna be super congested after a while, not to mention the accidents that are prone to happen when you gotta cross four active railways in a 500m span.

You can build anather train station in the suburbs. Like many cities in india does . So peaple can take the train to downtown if they want to . And it reduces traffic. So it can be very good .

[stephenreardon]

Regardless of whether you build a quarry out by the power station or not, a cargo station in that area is a very good idea

[jonnycreelman]

Love the public transport stuff. Cant wait for subways!

[Archangel-wh]

crazy that i started watching during software inc alpha 3 years ago, still putting out great content, keep it up man

[blackhearttek]

Hya. For Bulter Street near the Train Station, why don't you put a road tunnel underneath and a seperate Pedestrain Tunnel too. I think it'd look quite cool.

[stephenmurray]

your rail maintenace yard looks great but I was wondering why you didn't run the main line through it and save all the extra rail line? Thanks for the video.

[coucamaya]

Surprised there's no subway system as yet

[cmdr_stretchedguy]

Busses and trams are fine for low population areas. Trains are severely underused in this game, but I found subway is greatly used. Since the traffic simulation needs a LOT of work, the busses and trams get stuck in traffic all the time.

[fgm]

To me it's quite clear the game is missing suburban/commuter rail station as well as terminals. The asset we have is fine for a central passing station, but not for most other roles.

this is something I realized I needed to start doing with my city as i have about 200k residents but only 80k ridership, at this stage however you kinda have infinite money so it is only a matter of tracking down and revamping/fixing my stations.
I think I will focus more on centering my businesses around my transit as opposed to the other way, as it is much easier in my city to move zoning around as opposed to the several hundred types of transit stops

[bradhaughton]

I agree that some people keep on upgrading your existing Metro System. Don't keep bulldozing and moving it around it doesn't really help. I mean, it's not like your cities like a density city like Tokyo just add more buses trams cab and make the wait time a little less in my opinion the only time you should consider adding another system is when you're building another part of the city instead of bulldozing the existing part of the city and adding the structure into it.

[noellec-lntw]

i’m wondering why you didn’t just merge the train lines of the new station closer to the station instead of having all of them run through the city and then merging them? great video!

[NithinJune]

you should clear the trees around the big power pylons

[paulmouton]

Subway would have saved all the destruction part from the sport grounds?

[ChillWillGamer]

Thomas Shelby is definitely up to no good, hopefully there’s an eye doctor somewhere near him 1:02:48

[Foxy_AR]

22:31 you don’t need to change the road, buses can run on pedestrian streets and you don’t even need to upgrade them with bus lanes
