Cities Skylines mods are a great way to enhance the vanilla version of the game. Fortunately, there is an outrageous number of mods. At the time of writing this post there are 148,218 mods – it’s incredible the dedication and creativity this community shows. But with that number of mods you could spend hours browsing for the best intersections, buildings, or other random assets. To save you that time, here are the 24+ best Cities Skylines mods.

  2. Extended Public Transportation UI: get more insight into how many people are using public transportation and which lines are most popular.
  3. Automatic Bulldoze: having to bulldoze a building sucks to begin with, waiting for it to disappear just adds some salt to the wound. Instead, instantly bulldoze any building.
