Service Structures Vol. 9: Sushi, Pubs, and the Road to Residency

After unveiling Part 1 and Part 2 of the Resident Score, including a deep dive into the algorithm behind it and the current top-performing cities and leaders, players now have a clearer picture of how their in-game actions will shape the future of their neighborhoods.

Now, with Uppies on the horizon and a preview of the upcoming Uppies Evolution mechanic fresh in everyone’s minds, the Upland community is gearing up for the next big step toward the Resident era. This week, we’re introducing a new batch of limited-time Service Structures. These are both designed to help you attract Uppies, boost your Influence Score, and make your neighborhoods more vibrant than ever.

A Key Step Toward Welcoming Residents

Service Structures are essential to building vibrant, functional communities where Uppies want to live and spend time. As we gear up for the full arrival of Residents in the coming months, these drops will play a big role in shaping the Upland of tomorrow.

Once you purchase a Service Structure, you own the permanent right to build it on any compatible property. These structures not only attract Uppies but also contribute to your Influence Score, a major factor in the Resident ecosystem.

And with support for multiple structures on a single property live, now is the perfect time to start planning your builds.

Build smart, build with intention, the future residents are on their way.
