Hello Cities: Skylines players,

Since the release of the Detailers patch, we’ve spent the last five months working hard on the Bridges & Ports DLC, and towards our upcoming expected release. After reviewing the content ourselves and sharing it with our early access group, we’ve received consistent feedback: the bridges are super exciting, and the port works well, but there are aspects of the expansion that are not as polished as they could be.

That left us with a difficult choice: delay the release once again to add more depth, or release it as-is, knowing players may feel it falls short. We believe the current content is enjoyable, but we’re not blind to what’s missing, and to bring it to the level you deserve, we need more time.

The free update that was intended to come alongside Bridges & Ports will release on June 11th, with a bit of content that gives a slight sneak peek of what is to come in the expansion. In the meantime, we’re assessing feedback from our early access group and mapping out what we want to improve when the expansion launches - which we are now expecting in Q4 of this year.

That said, this is still a beautiful expansion, and we’re excited about what it will add to your city. We just want to ensure it adds enough to meet your deservedly high expectations.

The full patch notes for the free update will be shared on June 11th, together with the release of the patch. In the meantime, here’s a sneak peek of the free assets included to enhance your waterfronts.

Including Combination bridge:

• Four-Lane Highway Double Train Track Double-Decked Extradosed Bridge
  
• Double Train Track Truss Arch Bridge

Piers are shoreline/harbor assets created using the net tools. They are divided into leisure and
industrial piers.

Quays are a way to beautify the cities' shorelines. Quays can be updated with trees and piers can connect to them. Container Crane can be placed over the Cargo Port Quay that is designed to be wider than normal quays to work with the Reach Stackers. Quays work similarly to other roads in that buildings can be snapped to them when the zoning grid is visible.
