"Cities: Skylines 2 Developers Offer Free DLC and Apologies for Poor Performance"

The developers of Cities: Skylines 2 have apologized for the lackluster Beach Properties DLC, making it free for all and offering refunds to individual buyers. They promise a renewed focus on improving the base game, better community involvement, and prioritizing free patches and updates over paid content. Additionally, they plan to hold a fan summit and make changes to how the game is improved and communicated. The console version's optimization progress is targeted for October, and the team aims to address outstanding issues before working on new content.
