Paradox Interactive heeft laten weten dat Cities: Skylines al meer dan twee miljoen keer is verkocht. De game is nu een jaar geleden uitgebracht en heeft in rap tempo de harten veroverd. Om dit te vieren komt Paradox later met wat gratis content, tevens is er een video uitgebracht.

Hieronder wat woorden van de uitgever :

“Our team is floored by the response players have had to Cities: Skylines and by the level of success the game has achieved in such a short time,” aldus Mariina Hallikainen, CEO of Colossal Order. “We knew that trying to create a city-building game with such a small team was an ambitious project, but we’d been working towards that goal ever since the first Cities in Motion title, and we knew, if given the chance, that we could make it happen. A year ago, we achieved that goal, and the results have been nothing short of incredible. We’ve got so much more in store for all two million of our players, and I want to thank each and every one of them.”

“The remarkable thing about our fans for Cities: Skylines isn’t just their number, but how active they are in keeping the game growing and changing,” aldus Fredrik Wester, CEO of Paradox Interactive. “Giving the modding community the keys to our cities has resulted in so much passion and creativity. As of this month there are over 76,000 pieces of mod content on Steam Workshop for Cities: Skylines, from custom buildings to new road designs and beyond. Together with Colossal Order we intend to keep supporting this game and our players with more updates and content of our own for a long time.”
