Paradox confirme la sortie aujourd’hui d’une sixième extension majeure pour son fameux city-builder. Add-on qui comme son nom l’évoque met l’accent sur le développement des loisirs dans vos villes de pixels, via des parcs d’attraction, des réserves naturelles, ou encore des zoos. En plus de la bande-annonce classique en en-tête, voyez aussi le trailer ci-après proposant une sorte de visite virtuelle avec un panorama à 360 degrés.
Pour plus d’informations sur Cities: Skylines – Parklife, voyez cette page chez Paradox ou cette fiche sur Steam. Concernant Cities Skylines, voyez par ici sur Steam ou cette page chez l’éditeur.
Au passage sachez que Cities Skylines fait partie des quatre jeux de Paradox allant bénéficier à l’avenir d’une déclinaison en un classique jeu de plateau. Le premier prévu étant Crusader Kings (voir cette annonce).
Cette future adaptation sera conçue par Rustan Håkansson, à qui l’on doit déjà Nations The Dice Game, et devrait permettre des parties rapides (une bonne heure). D’après de premiers échos de personnes ayant essayé un prototype au récent salon PDXcon18, le plateau proposerait une grille avec six zones de construction, pour cinq types de bâtiments pouvant bénéficier de trois types d’améliorations. Chaque joueur disposera d’une main de cinq cartes proposant des conditions pour gagner de l’argent, cela y compris via les bâtiments d’autres joueurs que l’on pourrait exploiter d’une manière semi-coopérative. La principale conditions de victoire semble être la somme d’argent amassée, le jeu se terminant quand il n’y a plus d’espaces libres pour construire, ou fonction de certains scénarios.
