Tutorials have no time limit on how long to take on each step and are shown for services and panels when the service or panel is opened.

As the game progresses, the steps of the tutorials provide more information and fewer step-by-step guides letting you take the reins and choose the direction for your city. They provide easy step-by-step instructions on the basic city needs and help set up the city for future growth. Tutorials can be enabled at the beginning of the game and function as a guide bringing you essential information on how to start a city.

While we had small in-game guides in Cities: Skylines to explain different services or features, they were quite limited, so we developed a new system for Cities: Skylines II to help both players familiar with its predecessor and players new to the genre. Our goal with the tutorials in Cities: Skylines II is to provide you with a thorough introduction to the game and guide you toward building a successful city.

Today, we take a look at the tutorials available in the game, how they work, and what kind of helpful information they provide. Hello everyone! It’s time for another development diary, the last one in our mini-series taking you behind the scenes.
