What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

Players appreciate the city building gameplay and recent improvements under the new studio, along with strong modding support and superior road mechanics compared to the predecessor. However, the game suffers from significant performance issues at larger city populations and demanding hardware requirements that force lower graphics settings, with some experiencing crashes or mod compatibility problems.

Not recommended Sep 8, 2026
Crashed my laptop every time I tried to play and barely runs on desktop, zoning and traffic simulation is terrible, and residents complain despite providing the best services.

Not recommended Sep 8, 2026
This game promise something it can't handle. How can you make a game that only reaches 20/30 fps when there is 50-70k people living in the city, like i can't even reach 100k and be on 30 fps even on 1x, and on 3x it only touches 10-20fps, like how is this playable? You got to fix your game performance, i'm not playing on my phone...
Not recommended Sep 8, 2026
Don't waste your money on this, unless your looking for lagging and crashing all the time, Turned the specs way down with no improvement. If you want a great Cities Builder buy the first game.

Recommended Sep 8, 2026
It’s been a long time... I’ve always been a huge fan of Cities: Skylines 1 and put countless hours into the game. I loved the modding community and the fact that the developers continued to give the game so much attention and support through DLCs and updates. I bought the second game right at release and was extremely disappointed. It felt so bland, empty, soulless, buggy, and unsatisfying... Now, three years later, I honestly never expected it to pull me in like this. A LOT has changed since release, in my opinion. MODS!! They’re well organized, nicely presented through the in-game Content Manager, and incredibly accessible. There are more assets, and you can definitely tell that this game has received a lot more love since launch. It’s a good game. And at this point, I don’t even think about going back to CS1 anymore. CS2 is just ridiculously fun, and I’ve racked up 30 hours of playtime in just two days (plus the hours I already had from 2023). A clear recommendation to buy it at this point.
