Cities XL Details Revealed

The developer of the upcoming city building sim, Cities XL, has revealed several features of both the single player and multiplayer game.

The single player game, which Monte Cristo hopes will attract players to the game initially, will contain 25 maps with different landscapes such as snowy mountains and grassland, around 500 buildings in varying architectural styles, four levels of citizen wealth, many industries to build up, a traffic system and a brand new real-time construction tool feature.

The multiplayer mode will offer a persistent world known as the ‘Planet Offer’, where in addition to many of the above features, players can trade with others, work co-operatively and visit each other’s cities.

The monthly cost of using the multiplayer mode is €7 EUR per month, €5 EUR per month for three months or €4.50 EUR per month for six months.

“We think that with a price point of 7€ for one month or 5€ per month for 3 months, the Planet offer offers tremendous value for money. There are countless hours of gameplay, fun and sub-objectives in the Planet Mode that players will discover with time,” said Jerome Gastaldi, Monte Cristo’s CEO. “We really intend to continually expand the game, and together with the community keep on enriching it and improving it.”
