LEGO Skylines has been officially revealed at Gamescom as a LEGO version of the genre-defining city simulation game, Cities: Skylines. LEGO Skylines is being developed by Iceflake and published by Paradox Interactive, the same pair responsible for Cities: Skylines II.
The announcement trailer released at Gamescom revealed classic LEGO graphics blended with high-fidelity city-building mechanics. In LEGO: Skylines, players will have control over all of the typical city-builder stuff, like layout, public services, housing, food, and healthcare, but it seems like the LEGO version of the game will take a more whimsical approach to the genre, rather than sticking to hardcore city simulation mechanics.
On the game's Steam page, the developer encourages "enjoy a little just-for-fun fun," and to "make it weird." LEGO: Skylines is slated to launch on PC via Steam and on the Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series consoles, and the PlayStation 5, although no release date has yet been announced.
