Sim City is not just about ruling the world on your own…

EA have released more details regarding the latest installment of the original city building sim. This new game which will be released on PC and Mac this year will put you at the front of running a city but this time if you get stuck, you will be able to call upon your friends to team up and solve challenges together.

Every decision, big or small, has real consequences. Invest in heavy industry and your economy will soar—but at the expense of your Sims’ health as pollution spreads. Implement green technology and improve your Sims’ lives while risking higher taxes and unemployment. Team up with your friends to solve global challenges: launch a space shuttle, reduce carbon emissions, or build magnificent wonders. Compete on global and regional leaderboards to be the richest, the dirtiest, the happiest or the best place to visit.

Look out for SimCity on Mac and PCs this year.
