Metropolis-building game Cities: Skylines surpasses 250,000 copies sold

Find a void in the market and fill it: That’s how this whole capitalism thing works, and that’s exactly how publisher Paradox Interactive found itself with its fastest-selling game ever.

Paradox and developer Colossal Order launched Cities: Skylines for PC yesterday, and the town-building simulator has already surpassed 250,000 copies sold. That is the fastest any Paradox release has reached that milestone, and it shows that the genre of managing a municipality still has a hungry audience.
