Paradox Interactive and Colossal Order have launched a new mini-expansion with Cities: Skylines - Financial Districts, along with another free update for all players.

There's also a Map Pack 2 content creator pack and African Vibes radio pack, introducing more biomes and expanding the game's music library. Main features of the mini-expansion include:

  • Investments - Invest your money wisely and improve the lives of your citizens. Many sectors await your support such as deathcare, healthcare, oil, ore, farming, generic industry, and logistics. Keep track of your investments with the new stock trading tab. 
  • Stock exchange - Level up your investment funds with the stock exchange. This new building also unlocks the tax income bonus for office zone buildings in its area.
  • Bank buildings - Money, money, money! Banks add a new service to your city and improve its safety thanks to their transport vans that, while collecting cash from commercial zone buildings, decrease the criminality rate in the area. 
  • Financial District Specialization - Unlock a new district for office zones when you reach the “Big Town” milestone.  Financial Districts features a new visual style, and generate higher taxes than basic office zones but decrease happiness. The tax income bonus increases if a stock exchange is nearby.
