When the PC version launched in 2016, it was incredibly inspiring to watch how a loyal and enthusiastic community started to grow around it, enriching and expanding the game with amazing new content and, just as importantly, interacting with each other and sharing their passion for Planet Coaster across social media. We are positive Planet Coaster will benefit from the same shared, multi-platform experience.
Some of our other titles, like Elite Dangerous and Jurassic World Evolution, have proven to be immensely popular among the console audience, with millions of players enjoying and sharing their experiences inside and outside the games themselves.
How was the decision made to bring Planet Coaster to consoles? Why now?Īll Frontier titles share a common pedigree that facilitates building enthusiast communities across engaging, diverse, and unique games. We caught up with the game director Gary Richards to learn why Planet Coaster is a good fit for consoles and what features it brings with it to your living room.
The game, which launched on PC in 2016, relies heavily on keyboard-and-mouse controls and delivers various community-centered features including full mod support. The simulation gurus over at Frontier Developments are preparing to bring Planet Coaster, a robust theme-park sim that acts as a spiritual successor to the beloved RollerCoaster Tycoon series, to consoles later this year. While some titles like Cities: Skylines and The Sims 4 have made the leap to consoles, the examples are few and far between as the scene continues to bustle on platforms like Steam and Epic Games Store. One genre that is closely tied to the PC platform is simulation. Depending on who you talk to, strategy, shooters, and collectible card games all play best on PC, but those genres also have large followings on consoles and mobile devices. Regardless of what your platform of choice is, some games just feel made for PC.
