Ladies and gentlemen,
Say hello to our first expansion! Lots of awesome things will be added to the first expansion of Cities: Skylines, "After Dark", first and foremost a day and night cycle!
This thread will be update with more information when it is made available so make sure you stay tuned!

In After Dark, mayor-players’ in-game cities will go from day to night and back again, and their bustling burgs will look – and behave – differently. New leisure-focused commercial areas will become popular nightspots, with citizens flocking to nightclubs, karaoke bars, and other downtown destinations when their day is done. During the day, newly popular beachfront properties will do big business, including beach restaurants, jetski rentals, and more. For citizens who have a little too much fun, the addition of prisons will sort things out – while new taxi mechanics will help nighttime revelers get around efficiently and safely.
After Dark will include:
When does it release?
TBA - later this year
What's the price point?
TBA - it's reasonable though
What features are announced? (so far)
Day and night cycle - affects gameplay, simulation, sim behavior, budget needs etc.
Taxis, bicycles, bus lanes, leisure & beach zone specializations (via districts), improved police functionality, improved tourist simulation... lots more to come!
I'm starving to learn!
No worries, we'll be releasing a steady stream of developer diaries and continue the ongoing discussion with the community during development. Feel free to ask questions in this thread too.
Seriously, I want more.
Follow us on Facebook and twitter - additionally we recommend checking out the unofficial subreddit /r/citiesskylines
Will system requirements/age rating change?
System requirements are TBA - age rating stays the same.
Will there be any pre-order campaign or incentives?
Nope, neither.
Physical copies?
This expansion is Digital only, it will be available via most standard retailers.
Why isn't my specific want/need fixed or added?
There has been a lot of passionate feedback on Cities: Skylines since our release in March and we have a community that is not entirely foreign to suggesting changes, improvements, additions and fixes. Ultimately we believe quality trumps quantity and have chosen to focus on a group of core features that we, and the players, really wanted to see.
