I was wondering if cities 2 is an idea shared with CO or if it's just the community's concept. With the remaster it makes me think that it won't happen, and frankly, I'm fine with that. If possible, I look to get an answer from a dev.
Is Cities Skylines 2 Going to Happen?

We have updated our Community Code of Conduct. Please read through the new rules for the forum that are an integral part of Paradox Interactive’s User Agreement.
Probably not there many things to keep adding to this game now that we have a remaster for consoles since the developers know that the ps5 is a beast rendering things without using a lot of the ram. Now they put out ps vr enhanced edition for psvr2 which a game developer who worked on pavlov said the game runs faster on sony psvr 2 compared to pc with nvidia 3090 ti gpu. So no it wouldn’t make sense for a second game when you have this power and more dlc in the works.

exactly why there doesn’t need to be another one. you have a workshop to build your dreams, consoles don’t until we get way more stuff somewhat equal to pc. Plus their higher ups publishers may want something else made.

CO has to be making something. They keep hiring new people. It hopefully is a different city builder altogether. This game had had no real new game mechanics since Natural disasters DLC. The rest have just been a mish-mash of existing mechanics slapped together.
But the game is just too basic and boring after 8-years of the same ol', same ol'

Considering how many people still are playing Cities Skylines. It is still a popular game. CO won't find much competition on the market that's why they probably aren't in hurry to release anything new.

Exactly, since there is no competition, there must be a different game. Considering they have hired so many people, they have to be making something. After 8-years, it will hopefully, be good.

As long as DLC's ccp's and workshop items keep appearing CS is progressing organically to an next level CS and there is no need to put a version number on here... community themselves are making this game such a successful release.. the developers are very clever and all Paradox, Colossal and Tantalus have to do is making sure the code stays sort of up to date for various platforms and ensure future items can be added, which they seem to do, fix items, which they do...
The game will keep growing this way.. stays fresh and current... hats of to the guys and girls! May it long last!

Yes you are right. The community is adding a lot to this game.
However as long CO keeps adding more content there is a high likelihood that a mod won't receive any update. Potentially that is what could break any game while using such mod. As no one knows if the creator would still be active. Sometimes waiting a few hours and other times waiting for weeks before a "mod fix" has been released.
There is just no guarantee if a mod will be updated.
I have read my fare share of comments since the release of this game. A lot of them is related to outdated mods, which obviously is frustrating for the end user. Sometimes their games cannot be fixed properly or if it can be fixed maybe on a slightly complicated method.

Cities Skylines 2 will be 8 years old this March, and surely a new project might/should be in the works. Of course nothing is official till its official. But I think and the few subtle signs/rumors we have got, a sequel might be in the works. They have hired modders, their staff is more than double now since the original game released and obviously they can' just rely on expansions/DLC alone. I mean the game as others have stated, has hit its limits and the only way to change or improve it will be to start from scratch.
I don't except any announcements any time soon, but since Colossal Order's other project got cancelled, I think the sequel is the way to go now.

You guys say that there are still a lot of things missing in the current game. If you mean ports, ski resorts, beaches and anywhere else, then this is not the right answer. Those Are just cosmetic things.. The game already has a very old engine. even if the authors wanted to add new features, they can't. For example, the change of seasons, which would change the experience of the game extremely.

Well, with Cities in Motion 3 releasing, maybe it will get a lot of Cities: Skylines features incorporated into it! And be more like a city builder than just a transportation game.
You keep saying you know CIM 3 will be announced but haven't provided any proof yet.
CIM is a transport management game. CS is a city builder centered around traffic. So if they incorporated lots of CS into CIM, it would be more a CS2 than a CIM3. Considering CIM has almost no value as a franchise while CS has a huge one, it would be a terrible marketing move to name it CIM3.
Anyway, as soon as 2014, Marina told in interview CS was a way to expand on CIM. Why would they regress to a transport tycoon game 8 years later? This new game may be completely new, a way to expand on CS, just like CS was expanding on CIM2, or it may be CS2. But I don't see any hint or logic that it may be CIM3.

Looking at the unveil trailer some CS dlc stuff in here not anything obvious that points to a CS2
Maybe the reason being they might be announcing something for Cities Skylines and of course a new game will be announce as well. I doubt we will be seeing any hints yet on Steam or anywhere else. They have surely hidden it quite well till now must say, nothing has been leaked as of yet of this new game.
Cities skylines should get some kind of an 8th year anniversary update in the next week or so. It usually gets one every year.
