Cities: Skylines 2 Takes a Dark Turn with Introduction of Deadly Natural Disasters

The upcoming Cities: Skylines 2 game will feature natural disasters, marking a significant change from the original Cities: Skylines, where natural disasters were only available as part of a DLC (Downloadable Content) package.

In the sequel, Paradox Interactive, the developer of Cities: Skylines 2, is focusing on realism, including changes to climate and seasons. The game will introduce new day and night cycles, and climates will be based on latitude and longitude, resulting in different lengths of day and variations in sunlight, temperature range, cloud coverage, and precipitation. These changes will introduce four distinct seasons, and players will need to consider the impact of climate on their cities.
