Your ultimate theme park awaits - Planet Coaster 2 available to pre-order now

Pre-order now to receive three exciting rides in the Bonus Ride Collection.

Cambridge, UK – 12 September 2024 – Frontier Developments plc (AIM: FDEV) today announced that Planet Coaster 2, the much-anticipated coaster and waterpark simulation game, will be launching 6 November 2024 on PC, PlayStation®5, and Xbox Series X|S. From today, aspiring theme park managers can pre-order the splashtastic sequel to 2016’s highly acclaimed Planet Coaster to receive the thrilling Bonus Ride Collection, including rotating tracked ride FD Vision, the Outmax Water Coaster, and dizzying flat ride The Cube. For players choosing to pre-order the Deluxe Edition there is even more creative fun to be had, with the Vintage Funfair Ride Pack, including an additional ten coasters and rides inspired by iconic fairground rides.

Planet Coaster 2 invites players to expand their imagination with a spectacular selection of rides, slides, and so much more. They’ll push the boundaries of creativity like never before thanks to powerful creative tools, next-level customisation, and vibrant themes including Resort, Aquatic, Viking, and Mythology. Design sparkling swimming pools, scale scenery to the perfect size, and build impressive, sprawling parks which provide the perfect backdrop for guests to create unforgettable memories.

For the first time in Planet Coaster 2, players can quickly and easily customise rides and coasters in more detail than ever before to bring their ideas to life. A host of exhilarating rollercoasters and jaw-dropping thrill rides will bring excitement to any park, alongside vibrant water attractions including slides, flumes, wave pools, and more to delight and entertain. Using the brand-new event sequencer tool, players can also add mesmerising effects to their attractions, including animatronics and water fountains, that bring the dramatic fanfare of real-world theme parks to their guests.

Even the most stunning park requires expert management, and in Planet Coaster 2, it’s never been easier for players to pinpoint vital improvements that will boost their park rating and help them on the way to becoming a park management master. Helpful new heatmaps provide an overview of each park’s needs at a glance, while selecting any guest or member of staff will reveal insights into precisely what they’re thinking as they go about their day so that players can take action.

With the new waterpark gameplay comes even greater authenticity, with details inspired by real-world parks. Shade, sunscreen, lifeguards, changing rooms, and more are all paramount to ensure guests have their best day both in and out of the pool. And of course, even the most sensational rides must also be supplied with power and water to stay operational. Pools must be kept pristine, and facilities should be maintained to the highest standard to ensure maximum safety and happiness.

Planet Coaster 2 offers more ways to share than ever before, including for the first time ever, the ability to jump one-at-a-time into a shared Sandbox level to build together across platforms. Players will also be able to visit friends’ parks to experience their creations at the touch of a button, race to the top of the Franchise mode leaderboard, and share and download blueprints and entire parks via the cross-platform Frontier Workshop.

Planet Coaster 2 launches 6 November 2024 on PC, PlayStation®5, and Xbox Series X|S for a suggested retail price of £39.99/$49.99/€49.99 for the standard edition. The Deluxe Edition, retailing at £54.99/$64.99/€64.99, includes the Vintage Funfair Ride Pack – a collection of 10 charming attractions ranging from the nostalgic Grand Carousel to traditional wooden coasters. Players who pre-order Planet Coaster 2 now will receive three enthralling rides in the Bonus Ride Collection at launch.
