The Deluxe Edition Upgrade Pack contains five in-game historical monuments: the Statue of Liberty, Eiffel Tower, Brandenburg Gate, Arc de Triomphe, and Grand Central Terminal. It also features the original soundtrack with 14 unique tracks and a digital art book with 32 hand-drawn concepts. The Industries expansion deepens the gameplay by allowing players to customize industrial areas with supply chains for four resource types and unique factories, alongside adding mail handling and cargo airports. The Mass Transit expansion brings ferries, monorails, cable cars, and blimps to improve citizen travel, along with new transit hubs, scenarios, and road types.

The core game provides a multi-tiered simulation that is easy to learn but difficult to master, tasking you with balancing education, utilities, and the economy as mayor. It also boasts extensive local traffic simulation, a district and policy system, a day and night cycle affecting schedules, and full modding support via the Steam Workshop.
