First In-Game SimCity 5 Screenshots

Developer Maxis has released three screenshots for the new SimCity, depicting the reboot's in-game environments. SimCity is the fifth main installment to the long-running series by EA Maxis.

Until today, concept art was only released but fans can now get a taste of what to expect from the city-building simulation title via a new batch of images. The in-game screens showcase the commendable graphical attributes of the title.

The new SimCity will feature an in-depth multiplayer component including cloud saves, player statistics, and interactions with other real-life players. It'll also support "tens of thousands" of people and vehicles, which can all be moving at once.

The reboot is currently scheduled for a 2013 launch. It is exclusive to the PC and will be available from both brick-and-mortar stores and digital retailers like EA's very own Origin service, as well as third party platforms like Steam.
