EA has announced the Cities of Tomorrow expansion pack for SimCity, the press release is below:

 

SimCity Cities of Tomorrow Expansion Pack Coming November 12 

      Speculative Technologies, New Specializations, and Massive MegaTowers

      Take Gamers' Cities to the Future

    REDWOOD CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

      Bring the cities of today into the world of tomorrow. Electronic Arts

      Inc. (NASDAQ: EA) today announced that the SimCity™ Cities of

      Tomorrow* expansion pack is currently in development for Mac and PC

      and will be arriving November 12. Built upon the foundation of the

      ultimate city building simulation that has more than 2 million players

      worldwide, SimCity Cities of Tomorrow gives players the ability

      to transform their cities as they take them on a journey 50 years into

      the future. Using new technologies and experimental urban planning

      techniques, mayors will shape the destinies of their cities, thriving in

      a utopia of clean technologies, or a dystopia of hyper-commercialism.

      "Will the world of tomorrow be a utopia powered by clean energy or an

      industrial society consumed by mass commercialism?" said Patrick

      Buechner, General Manager, Maxis Emeryville. "With SimCity Cities of

      Tomorrow, players can build the future as they imagine it. Transport

      your Sims on MagLev, power your cities with fusion reactors or tidal

      wave generators, manufacture a legion of drones to serve your Sims and

      build massive MegaTowers that dwarf modern skyscrapers. We're giving you

      plausible technologies to take your cities onto a journey 50 years into

      the future. What will you create?"

      SimCity Cities of Tomorrow gives players an entirely new way to

      dream about their city of the future. New regions, new future

      technology, new city specializations and new transportation methods will

      transform the way that cities take shape and evolve. Will they create a

      utopian society underpinned by clean technology under the auspices of

      the Academy, or encourage giant corporation OmegaCo to strip-mine

      natural resources and pollute in the name of feeding consumerism? For

      the first time in the history of the franchise, cities can be built

      vertically with enormous multi-zone MegaTowers that extend high into the

      sky and dwarf the rest of the city. Education and research will help

      players discover new technologies that make their cities less polluted,

      less reliant on natural resources, managed day-to-day by service drones

      and fueled by green energy. As the population increases, Sims will live,

      work, and play closer together. When players have finished deciding

      whether they want their Sims to live together in harmony, or as members

      of an exploited workforce, they can rain chaos upon them by unleashing

      an all-new disaster exclusive to this expansion pack.

      The SimCity base game is available now on Mac and PC and

      developed by Maxis. SimCity is cross-platform compatible, so all

      players play together across the same servers. Players can play both

      versions with the same Origin account, allowing them to seamlessly

      continue their cities, achievements and leaderboard progress across the

      Mac and PC. Since its launch in March, SimCity has had seven

      major game updates that have made upgrades to the core simulation and

      provided game content and features at no additional charge.
