Cities of Tomorrow DLC for SimCity

New content for SimCity has been released in North America, and will be launching in the UK on November 15. The Cities of Tomorrow DLC gives gamers the chance to build the city of the future, offering new MegaTowers, city specialisations, futuristic transport links, and new technology.

"MegaTowers, futurization, and the battle between Green and Greed, these are the main foundations that drive an all-new experience in SimCity Cities of Tomorrow," said Patrick Buechner, Maxis Emeryville. "This expansion pack completely transforms how you play as you tackle the problems of tomorrow using plausible future technologies. But that technology comes as a price - the clean utopian world of The Academy requires a wealthy workforce that demands a higher style of living."

"OmegaCo, while extremely profitable, will take its toll on your Sims as the factories devour your natural resources and spit them back out in the form of harmful pollution. There is a new level of challenge waiting for you as the world pushes you back harder than ever before. The city of the future awaits; how it takes shape is up to you," Buechner concludes.

Like the main game, the expansion pack is cross-platform compatible, so players on Mac and PC can continue to play on the same servers. You can read our review of SimCity (which was released earlier this year) here.
