From Wikipedia:
SimCity 2000 is a city-building simulation video game jointly developed by Will Wright and Fred Haslam of Maxis. It is the successor to SimCity Classic and was released for Apple Macintosh and MS-DOS personal computers in 1993, after which it was released on many other platforms over the following years, such as the Sega Saturn and SNES game consoles in 1995 and the PlayStation in 1996.
Newport has since been a staple in Maxis’ branding since the first SimCity as it’s the signature typeface for the “SIM” in their game logos. Just like SimCity, also SimCity 2000 makes use of Brody’s futuristic-yet-so-very-nineties Industria for the “City 2000”, which was also present in the original game’s branding.
Finally, the sub-line “The Ultimate City Simulator” is a very wide Bank Gothic Light that’s consistent in multiple languages and console releases; only the tracking changes depending.
