And there’s a new gameplay trailer to celebrate.
Cities: Skylines’ new aviation-focused expansion, Airports, is out today, 25th January, on PC and consoles, and publisher Paradox Interactive is preparing for take off with a new gameplay trailer and news of an accompanying customisation-focused free update.

That includes a steadily expanding selection of modular airport building options, cargo terminals, and connected public transport – and you’ll see a fair number of Airports’ new features in action in the newly released gameplay trailer below.
