Cities: Skylines new replacement is about to become the best strategy game in years

The calendar of upcoming game releases is absolutely stacked with major launches leading up to GTA 6, but my list of most anticipated games is anchored by something a bit tamer in tone: Transport Fever 3 from Urban Games. I've spent a lot of time in the simulator mines over the last few years, and recent features trailer for the third Transport Fever game completely sold me on it. No, this isn't a full city builder like Cities: Skylines or even a hybrid like Workers and Resources: Soviet Republic, but Transport Fever 3 seems to be digging into the management aspects and quality-of-life improvements I've been wanting from city builders for a long time.
