SimCity is a reboot of the SimCity series by Maxis. It was confirmed at GDC 2012 for Februar 2013 release date (Later changed to March), and in the trailer its name is shown as simply, "SimCity". The game will bring back the zoning feature, as well as new mutiplayer mode where a group of cities work together or compete in a online region. Curved roads also make their first appearance into the franchise.
SimCity will use the new GlassBox engine. The Glass Box engine is a simulation engine designed by EA/Maxis, which creates simulation agents for each element (coal, power, workers, etc.) and ties animations directly to agent activity. For example, one units behavior, such as moving into a new home and blocking the street with a moving van, could ripple out and cause a traffic jam, that in turn delays the response time of a firetruck attempting to put out a fire, which results in a swath of your city burning. See the video section below for an inside look at the GlassBox engine.
