Roller Coaster Tycoon Adventures Deluxe Announced

As a fan of the classic Roller Coaster Tycoon franchise, I’m always looking for new entries and similar games. Back in 2018, Roller Coaster Tycoon Adventures was released, offering Nintendo Switch users the opportunity to build their own parks. After seeing success with that launch, Atari announced a polished, overhauled, and enhanced version.

Roller Coaster Tycoon Adventures Deluxe will be released on PC, Nintendo Switch, and it will also come to Xbox and PlayStation consoles for the first time. It is a reworked, improved, and updated version of Roller Coaster Tycoon Adventures, with streamlined gameplay and enhanced controller support. Here is what the press release has to say about the new version.

“As an official update expanding upon Atari’s fan-favorite theme park simulator for console, RollerCoaster Tycoon Adventures Deluxe introduces 80 new rides and attractions, including some new seasonally-themed rides, bringing the total number to a whopping 200!

A newly designed interface optimized for use with console controllers allows for seamless theme park development, making it a treat for all ages. The improved intuitive coaster builder lets you create wild, death-defying coasters that twist and turn, swoop, and swirl!

RollerCoaster Tycoon Adventures Deluxe is a streamlined and approachable version of the decades-spanning amusement park builder that has taken the world by storm. Design parks, customize rides, configure attractions, and maintain gorgeous landscapes, all in the name of keeping guests entertained and happy.

Three modes of gameplay that have been optimized for use with console controllers challenge you to unleash your creativity and flex your management skills. Players will also enjoy a host of improvements like a redesigned, streamlined user interface and dozens of other performance enhancements.”

Wade Rosen, Chairman and CEO of Atari commented on the new announcement, stating: “Rollercoaster Tycoon is one of the most endearing video game franchises ever, with tens of millions having played an RCT game over the past two and a half decades. We are very excited to bring this updated, deluxe version of Rollercoaster Tycoon Adventures to fans on console and PC.”

As a Roller Coaster Tycoon fan myself, this is a great announcement. I’m always happy to see well-received games get updates and enhancements, while also being brought to new platforms. We don’t have a full release date yet, but Roller Coaster Tycoon Adventures Deluxe is slated to release this year on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch.
