Tom is Eurogamer's Editor-in-Chief. He writes lots of news, some of the puns and makes sure we put the accent on Pokémon. Tom joined Eurogamer in 2010 following a stint running a Nintendo fansite, and still owns two GameCubes. He also still plays Pokémon Go every day.

"It's a little bit hard to work out without knowing the altitude of that dragon...""We see and understand the disappointment," the companies behind the city sim sequel write in their joint statement - a message which repeatedly apologises for the missteps which led to Cities Skylines 2 being released in such a state, and announces that anyone who purchased the Beach Properties DLC would be refunded. Work on any future paid DLC has now been postponed indefinitely.

"We will change the pack to be a free addition to the game, refund it to the extent possible, and provide additional content within the Ultimate Edition," the statement continues."Unfortunately, it will not be possible to offer refunds for Ultimate Edition buyers. This is due to the distribution of the Ultimate Edition across digital and physical storefronts, which create significant complexities for executing a partial refund.

Paradox goes on to pledge that it will provide additional free patches and game updates before any work resumes on paid DLC, meaning the game's next expansion Bridges and Ports will now be released in 2025. Finally, Paradox says the game's console launch will now target October of this year - after previously having been set for this spring.
