LEGO Skylines by Paradox Interactive Rated for Release in South Korea

The unannounced game from Paradox Interactive might be an adaptation of its troubled city-building series Cities: Skylines.

The Game Rating and Administration Committee of South Korea has rated LEGO Skylines. In its latest batch of game classifications, the title, published by Paradox Interactive, has been rated as being playable for all users regardless of age, in line with its LEGO trappings.

Interestingly, LEGO Skylines itself has yet to be officially announced by either the LEGO Group or Paradox Interactive. The company had applied for the rating on March 25th and was ultimately granted on April 9th. While a game simply getting a rating doesn’t precisely reveal when it could be announced, it usually indicates a release that’s a few months away, depending on the title.

The name LEGO Skylines indicates that Paradox Interactive might be tapping into its city-building franchise, Cities: Skylines. It could indicate a LEGO-themed city-builder set in the modern world, potentially with simplified gameplay mechanics for younger audiences.

If Paradox Interactive officially unveils LEGO Skylines soon, the company will likely do it at one of the many Summer showcases that will be kicking off next week. Depending on the scope of the title, we might see it instead at the Summer Game Fest Showcase on June 6th, or, as is typical for city-builders, the PC Gaming Show on June 8th.

LEGO has been fairly prominent in the gaming world thanks to the recent release of LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight. It launched on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S to strong critical acclaim, and recent rumors have indicated that its DLC will introduce Task Force X as new characters. A Nintendo Switch 2 version is planned for release at a later date.

In the meantime, this month also saw LEGO 2K Drive being delisted from online storefronts. Released back in 2023, the driving game was developed by Visual Concepts and received mixed reviews. We gave it score of 6 out of 10 in our review, praising its varied visuals and biomes and uninterrupted driving systems, but criticising its inconsistent AI and a lack of challenge.

As for other LEGO games, September 2025 saw the release of the puzzle-centric LEGO Voyagers on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and Nintendo Switch 2. Developed by Light Brick Studio, LEGO Voyagers is a co-op game that puts players in the role of two small LEGO bricks that embark on an adventure to rescue an abandoned spaceship. Along the way, the two bricks make use of LEGO-inspired gameplay mechanics to solve puzzles and deal with adversaries.

In our review, we gave LEGO Voyagers a score of 7 out of 10 thanks to its use of a Friend Pass alongside its low price tag, as well as its emphasis on teamwork and organic problem-solving. Our only complaints were the frequency of backtracking, monotonous fetch-style mission design, and the poor depth perception from its visual style.
