Cities: Skylines publisher ‘working on Lego spinoff’

Paradox Interactive is reportedly working on a new Lego game inspired by Cities: Skylines.

Paradox Interactive is reportedly working on a new Lego game inspired by Cities: Skylines.

The publisher behind the 2015 city-building game, which has been compared to classic title SimCity, appears to be developing a Lego version of the hit franchise.

As noticed by Gematsu, the Game Rating and Administration Committee of Korea has rated an as yet unannounced game for release with the name Lego Skylines.

There are no further details available about the game, and no hint of when it could be released.

It follows a wealth of Lego crossover games, with the brand putting its own stamp on all sorts of franchises.

The brand has covered everything from Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight and Lego Horizon adventures to Lego 2K Drive and Lego Fortnite via Lord of the Rings and more.

Back in 2023, Paradox Interactive dropped Cities: Skylines II on PC, but its planned PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S versions – initially pushed back to an October 2024 release date – were indefinitely delayed.

The studio said at the time: “Unfortunately, we have not yet met the stability and performance targets we set for the console release.

“Without a Release Candidate (RC), we are now unable to meet an October release window.

“While we are making slow but steady progress, there are still unresolved issues impacting the game in ways that harm the player experience we want to deliver.

“We expect to receive a new RC, which will undergo a thorough review in August. This evaluation will determine whether we can begin the submission process and provide a solid release date, or if further issues need to be addressed.

“We understand this is disappointing, and it’s not what we had hoped for either.

“However, we are committed to keeping you informed throughout this development process, even if the updates aren’t always what we’d like.

“Thank you for your understanding and support.”
