The developers at Maxis and publisher Electronic Arts are delivering a new video for fans of the SimCity series, with creator Will Wright and Ocean Quigley, the current creative director working on the it, discussing their experiences with the game.

The pair talks about the past of the franchise and the way the reboot is designed to show off the best elements of the city building genre, while introducing innovation that will make the game more appealing to newcomers.

Will Wright says that, at one point, he “got sick” of playing so much SimCity, but that the new title offers a “surprising amount of fun.”

The two developers also share some more details about SimCity and the strategies that players can use to succeed.

SimCity will be launched exclusively on the PC in early March.
