REDWOOD CITY,
Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Bring the cities of today into the world of tomorrow.
Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: EA) today announced that the SimCity™ Cities of
Tomorrow* expansion pack is currently in development for Mac and PC and will be
arriving November 12. Built upon the foundation of the ultimate city building
simulation that has more than 2 million players worldwide, SimCity Cities of
Tomorrow gives players the ability to transform their cities as they take them
on a journey 50 years into the future. Using new technologies and experimental
urban planning techniques, mayors will shape the destinies of their cities,
thriving in a utopia of clean technologies, or a dystopia of
hyper-commercialism.
“Will the world of tomorrow be a utopia powered by clean energy or an industrial
society consumed by mass commercialism?” said Patrick Buechner, General Manager,
Maxis Emeryville. “With SimCity Cities of Tomorrow, players can build the future
as they imagine it. Transport your Sims on MagLev, power your cities with fusion
reactors or tidal wave generators, manufacture a legion of drones to serve your
Sims and build massive MegaTowers that dwarf modern skyscrapers. We’re giving
you plausible technologies to take your cities onto a journey 50 years into the
future. What will you create?”
