Overview
- Paradox and the LEGO Group unveiled LEGO Skylines at Gamescom Opening Night Live on Tuesday, August 25, 2026, presenting a short trailer and an official Steam page that outline the project.
- The Steam listing names Iceflake Studios—the team now handling Cities: Skylines II—as the developer, signaling Paradox has moved active development away from original developer Colossal Order.
- Official materials describe LEGO Skylines as a city-sim that manages core systems such as electricity, water, food, hospitals, garbage collection and sewage while offering extensive brick-based customization.
- Paradox confirmed the game will target PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and Nintendo Switch 2, but it did not announce a release date or window and the trailer showed very limited gameplay footage.
- Fans and modders are watching for future reveals on systems depth, mod and tooling support, and a launch timeline because those elements will shape whether the LEGO version matches the technical scope of previous Cities: Skylines titles.
