BigCity (25 tiles mod)

Description
Allows cities to be 25 tiles big instead of only 9

Summary
  • By default the game only allows you to purchase up to 9 tiles.
  • This mod sets the limit of purchasable tiles to 25, so that you can still expand more once the last milestone has been reached.

FAQ
  • The mod is not working or does not show up in the game!
    The mod does not have any user interface, the only visible effect is that you can purchase more tiles after the last milestone once it has been enabled. To enable the mod please check the I installed the mod, how do I enable it? section of the FAQ, right below.

  • I installed the mod, how do I enable it?
    Once you've subscribed to it, head to "Content Manager" in the game main menu, select Mods on the left, scroll to this mod, check the on/off checkbox to enable it. That's it.

  • I want to have all 25 tiles unlocked immediately!
    Enable the mod included with the base game to unlock all milestones from the game start if you want to build a large city immediately.

  • What mods does this mod work with?
    Any mod that doesn't make changes to the map size will very certainly work properly.

  • Why only 25 and not 81?
    The game engine was designed to support up to 25 tiles as specified by the official modding API, anything higher requires deeper changes in its core. By not going higher than 25 you ensure your saves will keep working with newer releases of Cities Skylines without depending on the mod being updated if it breaks.

  • I uninstalled this mod, will I still be able to play my save?
    Normally yes, although I can not guarantee it as there's no indication of this in the official modding API. This mod makes no changes to the game engine and simply changes the amount of tiles you can unlock. So if you have a game saved with 25 tiles, even with the mod uninstalled, you should still be able to play it with the full 25 tiles unlocked.

  • Achievements are disabled when I play with this mod, how do I turn them on again?
    Although enabling any mod will disable achievements, you can use the following mod to re-enable them anyways : https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1567569285 Please note that this is probably not the only mod that does this, and I have no affiliation with it, nor am I using it, but it seems to be of a pretty decent quality so I'm linking it for people who want to try it out.

@fernanlucc I just tested it and it works fine on the latest release. Make sure you have enabled it, also keep in mind it only has an effect once you reach the last milestone, please see the FAQ for more information.

:d

@Nick The map editor already has access to all 25 map tiles, this mod is only necessary while playing a city. Also there's no problem in having this mod enabled while using the map editor.

Does this work in map editor
frost  [author] Nov 13, 2025 @ 9:36am 
@martto yes :)

can I use it on an existent save?
frost  [author] Jul 29, 2025 @ 1:29pm 
@expiredpizza I could but it would require a lot more work than this mod (the game engine only works natively up to 25 tiles, so going higher isn't trivial). I think you're better off using the already existing 81 tiles mod, it's probably much more stable than a brand new mod would be. But thanks for asking :)
