See their full forum post on it here. It's great to see it get some big content updates for free, and I look forward to seeing more.

About Cities: Skylines
Cities: Skylines is a modern take on the classic city simulation. The game introduces new game play elements to realize the thrill and hardships of creating and maintaining a real city whilst expanding on some well-established tropes of the city building experience.
From the makers of the Cities in Motion franchise, the game boasts a fully realized transport system. It also includes the ability to mod the game to suit your play style as a fine counter balance to the layered and challenging simulation. You’re only limited by your imagination, so take control and reach for the sky!

Love the tunnel feature. It will help de-congesting the cities and going through mountains.

The architecture was basically my main criticism of the game, so it's nice to see they improved it a bit. I'm really hoping for some big DLC with a tonne of buildings from different architectural styles. I'd even be willing to do the classic Paradox thing of £3 for small DLC with one style per one or something so people could pick and choose.

It's not the best city builder on Linux. It's the best city builder, period. I am a die-hard city builder fan (been playing them since the original SimCity) and I am so happy that they picked up the franchise from EA (or should I say, took it away from them? :D) Skylines is so much better than this utter disaster that's SimCity that it's not even funny.
And yay for tunnels!
