While the original plan for the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S versions of Cities: Skylines 2 was set for a Spring 2024 release window, Colossal Order has now said that it can’t promise a release date for the ports.
Before these builds have been evaluated, however, the studio has no plans on promising a release date for Cities: Skylines 2 on consoles.
Alongside offering a lengthy apology for the state of Cities: Skylines 2 as well as its recently-released Beach Properties DLC, CEO of developer Colossal Order, Mariina Hallikainen, and Paradox Interactive deputy CEO Mattias Lilja, have revealed that the console release of the city builder is being pushed back.
This is due to it not being able to hit the necessary levels of optimisation for a console release of the game.
