Step right up to your own SimCity amusement park.
Are you over that whole SimCity launch fiasco? Everything’s fixed now, right? And it’s been a few months, so you’re probably more than ready for additional in-game content. Good news! SimCity DLC is coming in just a few short weeks. Starting May 28, you’ll be able to build and customize your own virtual amusement park in everyone’s favorite always-online game.
A listing for the DLC was accidentally released by developer Maxis and captured by HypnoToad Productions. The leaked screens in the video show off amusement park staples like a ferris wheel, go-kart track, roller coaster, and a good-sized parking lot; other than the images, there’s not a lot of information about the expansion.
The response on the official SimCity Facebook page seemingly confirmed the expansion, as well as dating it: “Some of you may have seen thrilling new SimCity content that arrived too early at the gate. It’s coming May 28th. We think you’ll be amused.” The Facebook post (and leaked information) didn’t mention a price. SimCity sold like hotcakes at launch, but I’m curious about how much of that interest will carry over into DLC sales. As a Mac user, I’m still waiting for SimCity to be released for OS X, so I guess I’ll see this DLC sometime around Christmas.
