This guide tells gamers what they need to know about Housing in Ara: History Untold, including how to increase it and keep it in check to avoid the city population stagnating throughout the game.
What Is Housing in Ara: History Untold
Housing determines the maximum number of people that can inhabit a city in Ara: History Untold. If a city reaches its Housing cap, it won't be able to take any more citizens, which means it won't continue to grow and the city won't move onto the next City Tier.
To ensure that this doesn't happen, gamers should always keep an eye on their city's Housing. To check Housing in Ara: History Untold, players have to select a city, and then in the Summary menu, hover over the number that appears beneath the Growth section.
Here, gamers will see two numbers "X / Y". X represents the current city ties and Y represents the current Housing in the city, meaning the tier that the city can reach before it gets to the population cap. In Ara: History Untold, if the City Tier reaches the same number as its Housing capacity, it won't continue to grow.
How to Increase Housing in Ara: History Untold
If players want to keep raising their City Tier and increasing their population in Ara: History Untold, they're going to have to get more Housing. The first step to increasing Housing in Ara: History Untold is to build Dwellings, a project that can be found in the "Improvement" section of a city's project builder.
Dwelling improvements cost 25 Timber and 25 Wood, and they grant 3 City Housing, 3 percent City Production, and +2 bonus City Housing when built in the City Center. As gamers progress through the tech tree, they'll unlock better Housing improvements, such as the Residence and the Skyscraper, which grant 4 and 5 Housing respectively.
