This week has been intense! We have been working on a smaller patch to celebrate the start of the 2016 UEFA European Championship and tomorrow there will be a free football (the REAL kind) related mini DLC available for free!

Alongside the mini DLC there will be a small patch to fix a few issues and adding the pre-order content for everyone to enjoy. Most interesting adjustments in the patch are the solar power plants producing now 70% of the daytime output and After Dark's Tourism specialization attracting more tourists. The full patch notes are listed below.

The team at Colossal will continue to work hard on bringing new content and improvements to Cities: Skylines in the future and I hope you enjoy this little update in the meanwhile!

Cheers,
Mariina

I wasn't expecting a football dlc that's for sure! Thanks CO for a great little patch!

Quick question @co_martsu, will this new match mechanic work on steam workshop football stadiums created before patch 1.5 or will all football stadiums automatically include this mechanic once the patch goes live?

How am I supposed to lord over the plebs who didn't preorder if I don't have exclusive content?

Nah, just kidding, that's fantastic news.

Great bit of DLC there, love it! Can't wait to customise my city's team's colours! Also, the fixes relating to the doors on the buses and the snow plough blade just show the attention to detail you guys have. It's amazing! Keep it up!

Why bother posting in this thread or even keeping track of this forum then?
Because I can, and I might have changed my mind and the need to know what's going on. but ass I hate football, really detest it, then I won't ever play this game, or any other CO game again.

Bye.

That's a really nice update, I think this will make solar much more convenient to use!
