Electronic Arts bringing back ‘SimCity’ franchise after 10-year absence.
The new 3-D entry in the “SimCity” series is set for release next year for PC and will add the ability to construct curvy roads as well as introduce an online multiplayer mode that will allow one gamer’s digital city to affect neighboring towns created by other players.
“This is the first ‘SimCity’ where your city sits side by side with those of your friends playing in a region,” said Bradshaw. “The choices you make are going to directly impact their cities. You can cooperate to create regional aspects of your cities. Connect them together — or not. Be a polluter, and you’re ultimately going to affect your friends’ cities.”
