Cities: Skylines Team makes new LEGO city-building game

Iceflake Studios is bringing a new wave of urban development to the gaming world, stepping into the familiar role of city builders with a creative spin on the LEGO aesthetic.

For fans of intricate city planning and the satisfying challenge of building sprawling metropolises, there is a new development on the horizon. The upcoming release of LEGO Skylines promises to be a delightful experience, capitalizing on the beloved city-building mechanics that have defined a massive franchise.

This exciting project is rooted deeply in the world of Cities: Skylines. The development team behind Cities: Skylines 2 has now taken the helm, with Iceflake Studios stepping in to handle the creative direction for the LEGO adaptation.

The connection is clear: Iceflake Studios, a dedicated team, took over the development of Cities: Skylines 2 at the beginning of 2026. Now, they are channeling that expertise into a brand new venture, bringing the sophisticated world of city simulation to the fun, brick-built realm of LEGO.

This fusion of serious city management and playful construction is set to appeal to both seasoned city builders and younger audiences who love the tactile appeal of LEGO. It’s a fascinating blend of complexity and creativity.
