What was announced?

On 25 August 2026, Iceflake Studios and Paradox Interactive announced LEGO Skylines at gamescom. It is a standalone city-building game, developed by Iceflake Studios and published by Paradox Interactive with the LEGO Group.

The announcement describes a city that starts with a single plot and its first house. Players expand with roads, residential areas, utilities, workplaces and public services. The emphasis is on both running a functional city and making it look the way you want.

Confirmed platforms

The announcement lists PC via Steam, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch 2. The official FAQ does not specify an exact release date.

What we cannot establish yet

The first materials do not give a complete building catalog, editor controls, construction costs, unlock requirements or confirmed modding support. Brickline will add those details as they are documented, rather than presenting assumptions as gameplay advice.
