Cities: Skylines 2 publisher Paradox Interactive has announced that it's parted ways with the game's developer, Colossal Order, and that a new studio will be taking over ongoing development on the city-builder.
In an update on the game's official forum, Paradox says the decision for itself and Colossal Order to split was a mutual one, and that said decision was made "thoughtfully and in the interest of both teams" in order to ensure "the strongest possible future" for Cities: Skylines.
The new developer will be Iceflake Studios, whose name you may know from post-apocalyptic city-building sim Surviving the Aftermath. Paradox says Iceflake is already "hard at work getting into the nuts and bolts of Cities: Skylines 2".
Before Colossal Order departs Cities: Skylines 2, however, the developer will "implement a few additional updates", including the addition of bikes to the game, as well as new Old Town buildings and lots of bug fixes and improvements.
You can also look forward to a beta version of asset support for the game's Editor "before year-end", but after that, development will switch to Iceflake, who will take over starting from the beginning of next year.
