When I cast my mind to videogame franchises I'm excited about, I draw a bit of a blank. I've got Diablo 4 already, Dragon Age: The Veilguard is right around the corner, and Fable is still a little too far away to really excite me. The only upcoming game I can genuinely say I'm looking forward to is Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2, but even that's been delayed and pushed into the start of next year, engulfed by concerns that it's getting axed entirely.

The one-year anniversary of Cities Skylines 2 is just around the corner on Thursday October 24, and - while there have certainly been improvements - the Colossal Order city builder is still struggling to win over fans. Despite strong foundations and some notable updates, we’ve yet to see a return to the best-in-class form established by its predecessor. Speaking with CS2 publisher Paradox Interactive’s deputy CEO Mattias Lilja and chief creative officer Henrik Fåhraeus, I ask what went wrong, and if they’re worried about competition.
