Cities: Skylines 2 modding delayed, console version pushed to 2024

Official mod support and tools for Cities Skylines 2 will arrive after launch, not at release as expected. The modding features will launch alongside the game's Editor toolset leaving beta testing.

The Editor will initially allow custom maps, buildings, and code mods. It will later expand to enable custom vehicles, trees, bushes, and citizen models.

Mod sharing will be through Paradox's Paradox Mods platform, not Steam Workshop. Players can upload and download various mods and custom content.

Paradox admitted Cities Skylines 2 has not reached targeted performance benchmarks, but still plans to launch on PC next week.

The console version has been delayed to spring 2024 so more time can be spent optimizing performance before release.
