Last week, EA released the first gameplay video of the new SimCity. Today, the Maxis team is running a live webcast showing new gameplay and the first live demo of SimCity.

The video will be available at origin.com/maxis-live after the event is completed as well.

This virtual event will be packed full of announcements and will feature live software demos including the first live-streamed gameplay demo from the award-winning SimCity PC/Mac game.

Additionally, viewers will find out ways to get their hands on exciting giveaways and hear straight from the folks who create the games during special developer roundtables hosted by players.


SimCity is expected to be released early next year for $59.99. System requirements include 2GHz dual-core Intel processor, 2GB of RAM, and a GeForce9400M or Intel HD Graphics 3000 or better.

I'm guessing it will hit the Mac store. Although with Mac store wait times they would have already needed to submit it to hit their posted deadline lol.

Nope, one will have to purchase it through Origin.

Maybe they didn't show transit.

They explicitly said no subways. They showed a demo of the bus station and how to place bus stops using the new data layer visualization thingy.
