SimCity out March 5 in N. America, March 8 in Europe

SimCity, the reboot of the city-building game that kicked off the Sim craze, has a new release date of March 5, 2013 in North America and March 8 in Europe. The new dates announced on the game's Twitter today fall not too far after the original February 2013 goal.

The PC game, which continues the draw-and-stamp design of the classic original SimCity and SimCity 2000, also further emphasizes individual citizens instead of just the buildings they live in--kind of like that SimsVille game that got cancelled forever ago. It will be the first new main entry in Maxis' former flagship series since 2003's SimCity 4.
